    I'm a DD, and I can wear pretty much any tri top out there- because it's the ginormous sports bra I wear underneath that keeps the girls still. Most of the time my bra shows some, but I don't care. As long as the girls are contained, it's all good.
    I wear a Moving Comfort bra (Maia style).
    It dries quickly after the swim, too.

    What everyone else said - sports bra + tri top/suit (with or without shelf bra, the shelf does add a second level of "support" but it is pretty minimal for the well-endowed and sometimes a challenge to assemble).

    Whatever you decide to wear, try it a couple times first, you'll want to figure out if/where it chafes (armpits, band of the bra, etc).

    Good luck!!

    Talking back to middle school then, I suppose

    I was hoping someone had tried this:

    I guess I'll go back to middle school and wear a bra under a shelf-bra tri-top. Thanks for the advice all.

    Can't say I've seen that before, perhaps a new option for the endowed. A more supportive swim top would be nice (and I'm not even on the high end of that scale). The tri bra style tops I've tried are way more compressive like that, too, but they aren't made to withstand chlorine.
