Hey all. Im a chubby butt with really abnormal measurements. I recently had a breast reduction surgery and im having an impossible time finding ANYTHING...Its worse now than it was BEFORE the surgery. Im a DD/E and 54 around.
I not only need a "real" bra (and I say that in quotes because i've only ever had the disgustingly ugly walmart stuff that comes balled up in a box...or the surgery bra they gave me after the procedure) but I need to find a bathing suit too. Moving to Florida soon and we'll be an hour away from the beach. I dont care what it looks like, I just need to FIND one that doesnt cost $10 per square inch of fabric. I need walmart prices without the walmart sizes. Sad but true. The bra part isnt as important right now, as I have a smaller one i've been using extenders on but still..T'would be nice to have one that looks nice from the back too, yanno?
Also, does anybody have any suggestions on how to de-pudgify an existing suit? I have one, its old and stretched out, but still a BIT too small..I was thinking of making a little spandex skirt to sew onto the waist to hide the leg holes cutting into my legs x_x Good idea? bad idea?
If anybody has any other ideas to make an old ugly swimsuit less ugly i'd love to hear it...
I'd say this is designing on a dime, but I dont even have THAT much to work with...So..yeah. Any help, suggestions or ideas would be amazing.
