I, probably like most newbies, have only dived using school kit which tends to be fairly old and mens versions. These havent tended to fit particularly well, so guess what I was looking for is advice on whether the womens do fit better or if it is a case of manufacturers seeing a quick way to make additional money.

Dont think I'll be ready for twinsets for a fair while yet - the weight of one tank is bad enough - so probably going to stick with the basic BCD to start with.

Thanks for all the advice everyone!
Certainly all the women's BCD's I've tried on seem to be a lot better. The Diva (iirc) is nice and stretchy in the front. iw as tempted by it a couple of years ago, but went a twins route instead
