    Fabulous swimsuit! Tips for E/F cup size.

    I love this swimsuit! Lots of compliments about the cross-back from friends at my swimming pool. I couldn't decide between cobalt and plum - both gorgeous, strong colours. I'm between cup size E/F. I first ordered a Monroe (cup C-E) because other swimsuits have quite a lot of stretch usually, but the D&B fabric is different: quite a firm hold, which once you get used to makes you feel wonderful! No saggy bits at all :) However, this means the Monroe wasn't quite roomy enough for me. I then ordered a Hendricks (cup F-H) in Plum which is a better fit AND now have the choice of colour too!

    Deakin and blue- swimming feels new

    My 3rd purchase - they last for ages and never fail to give support and I have lost count of the number of questions “ where did you get your swimsuit?” Thank you Deakin and Blue for making my swimming feel new !

    A revelation!

    I’ve never spent so much on a swimming costume and was a little dubious of the hype, but it’s true - this X-back is the most comfortable I’ve ever worn - and supportive of my big bust. Worth every penny.

    Love this swimsuit

    The blue swimsuit is lovely and comfy. For a change the colour is just as it looks on the advert. It fits well and I feel secure and comfortable in it. When I have the spare funds I will buy another in a different colour as I swim a lot. The packaging it arrived in was lovely too.
