Bathing Suits With Firming

ECBG — Tue, 14 Jun 2016 17:42:22 GMT

Bathing suits are more revealing than shorts and a tee in most cases. It's surprising that a higher percentage of suits on Q don't have a little control.

I was able to find a really nice Miracle Suit on Amazon.

Do you prefer some firming in your swim suits?

I like a non firming suit.

I like one single layer rather than a dress or romper on top of a suit. I wish they would make a swimsuit with a short skirt, all one piece.

I am a swimmer and all that material is heavy in the water.

What they sell are fine for playing at the pool or beach but not for actually being in the water.

Another swimmer here. At the Reebok factory outlet I found a one piece bathing suit where the bottoms are cute short shorts w/pockets! I do not care for the skirted bathing suits.

When I tried it on, the suit looked like I was wearing a cute cutout short set.

I was so excited, I purchased 4. 2 solids & 2 designs.

Good thing they were on sale plus I got to use my 30% off AARP discount. I went back 2 weeks later w/a neighbor who purchased 3. She used my AARP card.

I love a sexy one piece and bikinis! I don't care for suits that suck you in either. But guess what, I ain't go no choice! I always get a couple of great black "wonder" or "miracle" suits as well as a patterned one and another great color. Swim a lot and even the salt water pools eat up that spandex😤

@Mz iMac Thanks for the heads up that's exactly what I've been looking for, I have all kinds of tanks is and one piece but I want shorts and with pockets would be even better.😊

It's not about what I want, it's about what I need. And I need support and control in a swim suit. I never had any trouble finding suit that worked for me. I've never bought any from Qvc. The one I bought 3 years ago came from Lands Ending.

Unless something is firming from head to toe, it just pushes "stuff" elsewhere. It's not like it makes it go away.

I am also a swimmer and I only buy one piece suits. I hate when you wear a tankini and as you move the top keeps riding up or a swimdress the skirt floats all over the place. I do like the look of shorts covering the tops of my legs so I wear a one piece suit and a pair of cover up shorts over it.

I had a one piece firming bathing suit. The sales lady told me the fit should be snug. I had to shimmy just to put it on. When it was wet and Mother Nature called, it was nearly impossible to pull up and down.

No firming suits ever again for me.

I like some firming, but not compression.
