vsa3janes Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 My granddaughter needs a swimsuit with a long tourso (body). I was thinking the plus size would give her more room. A 2 piece isn't an option. Does anyone know where to find some? I checked Kohls and Sears but didn't find any. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brithug00 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 depending on her age, you might be able to get her into a womens smaller size-a few of my friends with plus sized children have done that. Our local target stocks bathing suits all year long. i think its just one of those things you have to try on lots of suits to find the rightone. I did see that oldnavy.com has bathing suits in their plus sized kids section and they are on sale. i would probably suggest just buying a few and return the ones to the local store, that dont work out. gap.com has 3 one piece suits in their plus section as well. they are cute!

scrabbler Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I am pretty sure Lands End still carries long torso 1 piece suits. I had to get them also because my dd has such a long torso. For swimming in school, they cannot wear 2 pieces and so I had to look for long torso one pieces. http://www.landsend.com/ix/womens-clothing/Women/Swimsuits/Size+Range=Tall/index.html?seq=1~2~3~4&catNumbers=83~134&visible=1~2~1~1&store=le&sort=Recommended&pageSize=12&tab=2&cm_mmc=17190722 I googled long torso swimsuits and found quite a few possibilities. Even speedo carries some but with a nice pricetag too I am sure. Unfortunately I know I did end up paying more for my dd because she had to have one that fit, not one that dug in all the wrong places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AStamper3 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I always bought my daughter a speedo or Nike brand. They gave her the extra room she needed.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peppysfireball Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 A misses 10 is the same as a girls plus 14. I just happened to be in the JC Penney's girls section looking at cheap clearance and they had the cutest jeans that were 4.97 . I thought they looked my size and I'm short so everything is usually too long. I tried on the 14 plus and it fit perfect even a liitle shorter like I needed. So a misses is a little longer and would probably work in swimsuits also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbyshug Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 The problem with ladies swim suits is that they have cups and boobie room! :yuck:We don't need either. Gap also carries girls' plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
