Great Idea #10: Swimwear for the Masses

As previously noted, I am a kinda busty girl. This poses real problems when buying swimwear. WHY do swimwear designers seem to presume that the only people who wear bikinis are skinny teenagers in B cups? It is SO frustrating. Guess what- I want to look good when I go swimming too.

I don't really get how you can find the exact same bra in twenty different sizes, but that swimwear is almost always a universal cup size. News flash- a large breast squished into a tiny fabric triangle is NOT attractive. Or comfortable.

Another news flash- big puppies need a shelf to sit on. If I CAN find a top which covers my twins, they tend to, well, flop. I actually wasn't planning on wearing them around my knees just yet, thanks. Underwire is a big girl's friend.

I'm not the only one having problems here. I know plenty of more petite chested women who can't find bikini tops to suit them either. They find there is too ample breast space for them.

Should a swimwear designer design a basic hot bikini, and then offer it in different cup sizes (perhaps with slightly tweaked designs to best flatter different sizes), they would make a FORTUNE! They've already had the genius ideas of providing a range of different bikini bottoms (tie up side, hipsters, boy leg shorts, etc); and of selling tops and bottoms as separates, so that the consumer can advocate their bikini combo of choice. Now, Swim Wear Gods, it is time to take that idea to the extent of its potential. Please...

Great Idea #9: Shape Specific Clothing Stores

I like Caroline's Great Idea for stores which sort clothes to suit your hair and skin colouring. But why stop there? Let's go one further. Let's also have a store that helps you know which clothes fit your body shape. A section for (dark haired, medium skin) hourglass shapes; another for (blond, fair skin) pear shapes.

I'm also excited by the fact there is a new website on which you can buy shirts that are specifically designed to suit certain cup sizes. This is a Great Idea! i think it is particularly great for me, as I'm a D-cup- good LUCK getting a shirt to do up! Check out www.mrrose.com.au for more.

So. The Person Specific Clothing Store should stock things for certain cup sizes too. Hell, let's just go back to having tailors...

Great Idea #6: Blonde/Redhead/Brunette Clothing Store

How many times have you gone shopping, seen something you like, but you're not quite sure if the color suits you? You could ask the sales assistant's opinion, but they will always tell you it looks fabulous.

This problem could be solved if there was a clothing store that was divided in sections of clothes that suit blondes with pale skin, another section for blondes with darker skin, another for redheads, another for brunettes with pale skin, another for brunettes with darker skin etc.

The store could even put out a catalogue using models of each hair/skin coloring combination.
