I can't believe I found a strapless plunge that stays up! This is my first try at a bra sized strapless bikini top. I measure at a 30 band but I wear a 30 or 32 for swimsuits since my squishy skin from weight loss creates a lot of rolls around the band. I usually don't wear strapless bikini tops as I spent a large portion of my life in the ocean every day and they tend to not stay on when there are waves. This summer I have been at the pool wearing all sorts of swimsuits (thanks to marilynne who has sent me so many bikini tops!) and I have five or six different strap lines. This usually wouldn't bother me but I have a couple weddings coming up with strapless dresses I need to wear. So I went on the hunt for a strapless plunge because I have no tissue separation and swimsuit gores normally cause me a lot of pain. I didn't want to spend a lot and needed to get it quickly and I found this on eBay for $22 in the US and it arrived in a few days. The cups are moulded but they are shaped well and made to stay up. There is some gapping when I move but never enough for anything to slip out. I included a photo bending over to show this. I jumped around in it, imitated various swim strokes, and laid in it, and it stayed in place the whole time. I have gone out in the sun wearing it but haven't tried it swimming since I got it to fix tan lines. It's a little too separated for me but that's common with plunges that I have tried. The cups are much too wide but I expected that with a strapless swimsuit. The attachable strap is too wide and goes into my armpits, but I won't be using it. I am pleasantly surprised with how well it fits considering how hard it is to make a strapless that is also a plunge.

  margesimpson I cannot confirm if it works for swimming, but I practiced some breast strokes and butterfly strokes and did jumping jacks in my bedroom and it stayed in place. I'll consider it a strapless win!

  That’s awesome! I didn’t think a strapless anything could work in bigger cup sizes lol

  margesimpson I didn't either! I have not tried to find a regular strapless bra that would work for me because I don't think that will be an easy task and I don't have the mental energy. I just buy clothes that have straps lol
