Abbie Chatfield solves swimwear problem for women with big busts

After being criticised for having ill-fitting bathers, Abbie Chatfield has revealed a solution for women with big boobs – and fans are thrilled.

Abbie Chatfield has announced she’s releasing a swimwear line for women with big breasts just hours after clapping back at a troll who complained her bikini was too small.

The popular influencer – who is known and loved for her outspoken personality – called out a commenter who criticised her recently for wearing a black bikini that put her bust on display.

The 26-year-old podcast host told the follower she had “E-cup f***ing tits”, suggesting her large bust can be difficult with standard bikinis.

Not long after putting the troll in their place, Abbie took to her socials to reveal she had collaborated with swimwear brand RAQ, a brand that caters especially for “busty women”.

“Dammnnnnnnnn I love how you come back at your haters. F***ing brilliant timing,” one fan noted.

While Abbie’s collection, which features two bikinis made for size D-H busts, has likely been in the works for weeks – it certainly solves an issue many women with bigger boobs face.

She said the collaboration came around organically after being a customer for more than a year and recommending them to friends who have “really big boobs”.

“It’s really hard to find togs that are for big natural boobs that aren’t going to squish them and also have a smaller band size because that’s a struggle as well,” Abbie said.

“Now I can wear my very own custom bikinis, very selfishly. It’s amazing.”

The “Limoncello” and “Flower Bomb” bikinis have an ’80s-inspired cut, with the former Bachelor contestant describing them as “supportive, flattering and f***ing hot”.

During lockdown, Abbie said she discovered how multifunctional her RAQ swimmers were when trying to squeeze a run and a swim into her one-hour outdoor timeslot.

“I would go for a swim after I would go for a run because I wanted to fit it all in, so I started wearing the swimming top as a sports bra,” she said.

“It’s literally better than a sports bra.”

Fans have been quick to share their excitement over the new collection that hits virtual shelves on January 13, with many stating they would be buying the swimwear pieces.

“Wow bikinis that fit,” one woman marvelled.

“I’m so excited; swimwear that can handle my boobs,” another agreed.

“YESSS. Finally I can wear a bikini top without popping a t**ty,” someone else mused.

Bottoms are priced at $49 while the bikini tops will set shoppers back $99. There’s also a loungewear shirt and pants, both priced at $135.

Others praised the stunning promotional photos of Abbie in the cossies, describing them as “gorge” and “hot”.

“This is too much to handle,” one woman wrote.

“YOU LOOK SO GOOD I’M SCREAMING,” another said.

“It’s so lovely to see someone so comfortable in their body. You are a breath of fresh air for all teen girls and women,” one added.

Abbie previously defended her larger bust in a regular bikini after being told by a follower she had made a “bad choice of bathers”.

“Babe, it’s a f***ing black bikini. Sorry that I have E-cup f***ing tits,’ she said while eating hot chips in the car,” she said.

“Maybe I want them to be half-out. Maybe I enjoy them being half-out.”

She went on to say she looked “hot as f**k” in the cossie, calling them an “excellent choice in bathers” despite the complaint.

Many of the star’s fans were quick to defend the swimmers, flooding the comments section of a photo wearing the offending item with compliments.

“The bathers are literally CUTE,” one said.

“Gorgeous choice of bathing suit Abbie,” another commented.
