I really wanted to love this swimsuit. I was so excited to receive it and try it on and when I did I was disappointed. The material is quite thin. I would have thought that a swimsuit designed with speedo would have thicker, more supportive material. Such a shame, I love the design, but you can see everything through the fabric, including my nipples, and I wasn't even cold, and there is no tummy control whatsoever. A thicker material would make it more supportive through the bust also. Too expensive to return from Australia so I will keep it, but it will go to the back of the drawer, unfortunately. I also have the performance swimsuit with the zip which is much thicker material, giving a much smoother result.

This swimsuit fit well, and in theory I like the flexible underwires. However, they were about two inches too long and I could not get them to fit well without pushing out on the middle of the front of the swimsuit. They also kept poking me in the arm on the side. I resorted to removing them. The fit is about the same- they didn't seem to really offer and extra support- and the swimsuit is much more comfortable now.

Great costume, good for serious swimming or sunbathing

I was so excited when I saw this costume. Unfortunately it is not for short bodies. It comes up quite big as well so best to go down a size (or two) if you do get it. I rated it a 3 only because it didn’t fit true to form.

One of the most comfortable swimsuits I have ever had. The shape suited by body and feels flattering. Great to swim in!!

I've recently taken up swimming and aqua fit several times a week and wanted something more supportive. This has been fantastic whilst also looking pretty. My only grumble is the plain black design clings to my tummy - whereas with a little bit of pattern (like the other speedo costumes) would be much more flattering. Ideal swimming costume for jumping around in, water sports and swimming. I find speedo swimming costumes true to size (usually with bravissimo own brand I have to go up a back size, but with this I didn't!)

Wanted a bathing suit with coverage on my chest, as I am sensitive to the sun. This suit does that while still looking stylish. Good support from the built in bra.

This is a very elegant and stylish costume. It comes up slightly bigger than the conventional Speedo costume - I wear a 30G in that but have bought a 30FF. I’m hoping it will wear as well as the traditional model. I’ve bought two!
