Women's Swimwear Collection & Size Advice
We source the best swimwear brands internationally, with a special focus on D-K cup sizes. Some styles are specifically cup-sized. Others are simply body-sized (e.g. 10-22), but we have usually chosen styles with excellent internal shelf support that fit well across a range of sizes.

Post-Surgery Swimwear Collection
You can definitely still swim with a breast prosthesis.
See our Prostheses • Breast Forms page to find out more about wearing a prosthesis when swimming.
When it comes to swimwear, you will probably need a pocket to keep your prosthesis in place in the swimsuit. We have a great range of pre-pocketed swimwear at The Fitting Room that also have an elasticated shelf for support under the bust. That means that both the prosthesis and breast will be supported and sit evenly with each other.
Choosing swimwear that is not pocketed is possible. Sometimes fuller coverage underwire styles can hold the prosthesis in place, or you could have a pocket sewn in. Your current swimwear may work with an alteration - it will need to have a double layer of fabric in the front so that you can sew a pocket on the inside layer, with the stitching not going through to the front of the suit.
Sustainable Swimwear
Increasingly, it matters to all of us where our swimwear comes from.
We want to 'do no harm' to the environment. The good news is that many swimwear brands are leading the way in sustainability - making big efforts to source environmentally friendly fabrics.
Zoggs is made entirely from recycled plastic bottles. Seafolly's swimwear uses over 80% recycled nylon in many of its ranges, as does Jets. Most of Sunseeker's range is called re:new - made from a variety of post-consumer waste to create sustainable nylon and polyester fabrics. Other brands have also started sourcing manufacturers and wholesalers who focus on reducing environmental impact and are increasing the styles each season made from recycled materials.
"I live in Australia and on every trip home I visit The Fitting Room. The service has always been awesome. As a big breasted woman, I need special attention, without feeling humiliated. I always buy my bras and swimwear from this company and after many years of patronage they are still outstanding. Deb has trained her staff to a high level and, frankly, I would continue to fly over the ditch to experience the personalised and private care this company provides. Highest honours to the team!!!" • Edwina
"Shopping for a bathing suit is really tough for me. I struggle to find one that fits me in all the tough places, while still being cute and functional. Going to The Fitting Room is fantastic. They made me feel comfortable, listened to my needs, and delivered a fantastic and cute suit in record time. I'd highly recommend The Fitting Room to women of all shapes and sizes." • Anon
