New catalog w/ bathing suits!

[Jersey]

Last night's mail brought a catalog for a company called Athleta (athleta.com) featuring swimwear in hard to find sizes - XXL, tall and DD sized bra cups. Sporty prints, paisley and brights along with cover ups and coordinating boy shorts for suits.

They have comfy looking yoga wear too! (I practice and am a certified massage therapist always looking for comfortable, yet stylish wear and hate scrubs.)

Haven't ordered so I can't speak to the quality. Looks good, prices are bit steep (though not as bad as lululemon). ...Another expense of diving... A bit of Googling uncovered that Athleta is owned by GAP (bought last year).

If anyone has any experience with this company, please let me know.

Nice stuff! I always have a hard time buying bathing suits because I wear a DD bra, and most one pieces are designed for smaller chested women. I think I'm going to order one that I like, and hopefully it'll be a good fit! Thanks for sharing this site with us.

JupiterMermaid - I'm in the same boat as you are and nothing fits, or if top fits, bottom falls off...or 'stuff' is coming out the top and sides. I'm going to try for some of the tankini separates with built in bra. Maybe I won't be afraid to unzip exposure suit anymore...good luck!

Nice tip, Jersey.

Thanks!

Landsend usually has great quality tankinis in mix and match sizes. I'm with you guys, need a bigger top than bottom.

I also get this cataloge and love it. Yes, it's a bit pricey but everything I've gotten is good quality. You might also look at Title Nine.
