HoggyDoo Posted April 17, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I have a new swimsuit and need some help. It is a one piece that has an underwire to support my heavy uppers. The problem I need help with is it has two shoulder straps that doesn't even begin to help support. How can I or what can I do to pull this straps up or together without sewing them. I am in love with the swimsuit and need these straps fixed. Help.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anita Latte Posted April 17, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 17, 2017 There is a thing called a swim or bra strap adjuster. Google the idea. I have used a clear one that I picked up at Target that looks like this: While that might not be the most attractive, I can attest that it is comfortable. There are also clips that do the same thing that are more decorative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoggyDoo Posted April 17, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Thank you. I will most definitely try those. The swimsuit is one that I just love and everything fits but the top part. I refuse to give up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyaheel Posted April 18, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 18, 2017 There is a thing called a swim or bra strap adjuster. Google the idea. I have used a clear one that I picked up at Target that looks like this: So, I have a similar item (mine are heart shaped clasps, I believe from Target) but I use it to turn a regular bra into racerback (ish) so I can wear it with dresses that have narrower straps. How does it help support breasts?? Honestly - support *should* come from the band, not straps. If your suit isn't supportive, it's not the right suit for you. Sometimes tightening straps can help some (and I would bring the suit to a seamstress and have the straps taken in, if that's the issue)....But I still want my support in the band, where it's supposed to be (I'm currently 38DDDD - trust me, I understand the issues:*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collegegirl92 Posted April 19, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I agree with the strap adjuster! See if you can find one in the same color as the swimsuit so that it will look like part of the style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
