Hey there, 

I am looking for a new baithing suit for the summer, but am having a
hard time finding something I like. I am looking for sites that sell
high end swimwear, with brands like Chloe, Dolce And Gabbana, Dior,
Versace, Jean Paul Gauliter, La Perla, Pucci, and Moschino. I am not
looking for these brands specifically, but sites that have these
should also have others that I'm intrested in. I'd like at least 4
sites with the money. Thanks!!

Typo! 

Meant to type "I'd like at least 4 sites for the money", reffering to
the price set for the question.

Thanks!! :-)

I hope this answered your question. Please contact me if you need any
clarifications on this answer before you rate it. My search strategy
might be of interest to you:
- I went to Froogle <://www.google.com/frghp?hl=en&tab=wf&q=> and
searched for [name of designer] and the terms "swimsuit", "swimwear",
or "bathing suit".
- Later, I went to Google and done the same. 

Have a fun and beautiful summer!
