Plus size tankinis
Hi

Just wondering if any plus size ladies wear tankinis for swimming or are they more for sitting by the pool / on the beach?

My main question is does the top ride up?

Any input appreciated

Hi, I wear a tankini, its just a two piece swim set. Like a bikini but the top is a singlet not a bra style. No the top doesnt ride up. Hope this helps :)

It is the top part of a pair of bathers.  They are sold mainly as separates now as people like different syle bottoms (bikini, boyleg etc.)

Thank you. I saw a nice one (top and bottom) but didn't want to leave myself even more exposed!

I guess the top sticks to you like togs rather than balloons like a Tshirt in water.

My tankinis top doesn't ride up ....yes thats right cemz the bottom of the top does "stick" to you and doesn't float like a t-shirt also the weight of the water actually weighs the bottom of the top down as you get out of the water. I love mine plus so easy for getting in and out of.
Cheers
