I like THIS swim suit top   I ordered it and it came and it is too big.  They don't have the size I need in a smaller one in this print.  I just don't think the other prints they offer (even the non clearanced ones) would be flattering on me.   I would love a higher next Tankini and I need one for a DD bust but NO underwire.  I had open heart surgery and an underwire hits right where the incision was so they are a NO go for me.

Disappointed as we can not try stuff on here in Michigan and I ordered this top and some swim shorts from Lands End but i really need the shorts in a size smaller (which is good if they aren't too small) and then I need a different top.   

I just want to go into somewhere that has REAL swimsuits that cover you and try some on.

How about this one? It doesn’t go up as high in the back, but the front looks similar. I love the Free Country swim suits from Sam’s! They hold up well and are a super good price. (If you have a membership). If not, Free Country has a website, but the prices aren’t as good. I think you can get them at JC Penney too maybe.

Do have they these in the Sam's Club stores too?

I think it varies right now. That one shows online only. But, I’ve found that they get more in stock in store as it warms up. However, my mom has been able to buy a similar one at her Sam’s (TX).

Keep checking LE too.  I've found some new prints there over the last few days.  Also Amazon carries some LE stuff.  They have that top in several different prints.  I don't see where they're specified for larger cups, but the size chart indicates what cup sizes each size can accommodate.

Ok, so I actually have this top and another one from them. I can go check it, but I dn't think it's underwire. Yes, I checked mine and it's a 16, soft cup. When I click the LE for DD, it still says soft cup. Did you confirm with them on the phone whether it's soft cup or underwire?

I think when I bought mine of that tankini, I ended up trying multiple sizes and was surprised when I liked the standard size vs. cup size. I don't remember why. Just suggesting you might want to order it both ways and return something. 

I definitely like the tanikini. I have another from them, but the tankini goes under a swim shirt nicely, doesn't billow up, and PREVENTS BURNING. 

I saw a bunch of nice swim suits, really nice stuff, when I was at a LARGE Meijer in a big big city. This store was bigger than any Meijer I've even been in, lol, and they had a very wow women's swim department with stuff that was very comparable to the LE stuff. At least that's how it looked when I was walking buy. If you can find one in a big big city, might give you a way to try things on.

Check Amazon. They have limited assortment of Lands End stuff, prices varying by size and color. But I recently bought two of those swim tops (wasn't sure what size to get) for $7.50 and $8.something. (One dropped from $15 to $7.50 while in my cart! Woot!) Of course, I couldn't be choosy with color, but I'm easy to please, lol.

Also, I really loved this swim shorts last summer (plus sized, so maybe won't work for you). The perfect length for me (boy short is too short for me but I didn't want knee length). https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07FN8S7FX?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Thanks for the ideas of checking Amazon.  I will do that.  I did check eBay and they had a few options.

 

I will also keep checking lands end.  It is just that I don't look good in pastels and want a black background with a nice print.  Yes I am fussy.

I get it. One of the tops I ordered was black with white dots -- I'm hoping that's the one that fits!! (The other was floral...meh.)
