    Plus size swim suits

    Can anyone recommend me somewhere to buy one? Online or IRL, I don't mind. But I need something that isn't overly expensive. I keep on seeing them around for $200 +. I refuse to pay that much money for swimmers because I'm a size 18!!

    Speedo produce size 18's for around $100 I found some at the local swimming pool which sells speedo.

    I would recommend being able to try on if you can. I tried mine on too quickly and probably should have got the 16 rather than the 18 and (happily) have now lost weight, so are too big.

    City Chic and Autograph sell plus size swimwear. Target and Kmart also have a good range if you're after something a little bit cheaper but I'm not sure whether they've got much in stock atm.

    Rebel stock speedo one piece up to size 22 although some only stock to a size 20. I don't think I've ever paid more than $50 at rebel.

    Also try swimwear galore. They sell lots.

    Target have a great new range called slimline or something like that. I got a great pair in store and just bought another online as they have more options online. I think mine were $59.
