Popping my Viva Voluptuous cherry

Viva Voluptuous had me hooked from their launch party fashion showcase in January.  They dared to inject sexy and stylish lingerie into the plus size scene.

There are very few brands who provide supportive, well fitting lingerie in ranges that are beautiful to look at and make you feel like a goddess wearing them especially in the larger back and cup sizes.


So when Viva V boasted that they were the the "new plus size lingerie brand on everyone's lips" on their flyers I needed to try their items for myself and see if they really were as good as they proclaim.


The vibrant colours and prints of the swimwear were calling me... I chose the "Antonella" & "Daisy" print sets to pop my Viva V cherry.

I was in search of fabulous support with killer cleavage in gorgeous designs. These two sets did not disappoint.  I chose a 38G size wise in both the bikini and the tankini. Both sets checked all boxes and provided decent support.



I received so many compliments from other plus size ladies whilst on holiday (and at home since I have been back) People are loving the eye catching colours and how supportive it looks.  They aren't wrong, these sets are fabulous. 



I was hooked, I had to get my hands on other sets.

As I already had the bottoms of the "Daisy" print set from the tankini, I ordered the matching bikini top and the "Audrey" set which I had seen and adored on Stephanie of Nerd About Town.



Viva V currently have a sale on all of their 2017 Spring/Summer Swimwear lines to make way for the new lines which I am sure will be just as stunning if not better than this year's range.

They are offering 20% off the range using code SUMMER20

Head on over to their website to take advantage of the offer or you could check out their stand at The Curve Fashion Festival on September 9th in Liverpool - Grab your tickets here before they are sold out.


Rating:  Overall - 9/10


Potential improvements:  I would suggest extending the ranges further in back sizes and cup, there is most definitely an appetite for it. The briefs could benefit from being a little more generous, whilst the sizes are true to size, I would have preferred a slightly higher waist.

Would I recommend these?  Without a doubt, the range caters for up to a 48 back and even an H cup in some lines, so there is definitely options for us top heavy ladies. Prices are fair and well worth paying that little more for the quality. The garments wash well and have seen me through a couple of holidays so far and still look brand spanking new. As they are relatively new brand I am really excited to see how they grow. 

Make sure to tag me in your holiday snaps wearing Viva V. I hope you love them as much as I do...
