SmismivoStrapless One Piece Women's Swimsuit with Bandeau Retro Tummy Control Swimsuit for Women Vintage Ruched One Piece Swimwear Swimsuit

Material not strong and tides as expected

Let's be honest here--Okay? The Aging body (65 and over), for the average woman, can use a bit of...assistance. As a pro-ager at 65 years, rather than an anti-ager, it is my mission to present a positive and fun picture of the "senior" woman! I'm sick and tired of the "old lady" stereotype that is often coveyed. We do NOT wear swimsuits that have skirts that go past the thighs. (most of us anyway). We all don't have boulders that hit down to the waist (many of us). We want to dispel the offensive stereotype and get our body-positive clothing on--and that includes the item known as the Bathing Suit.Granted, many of us (I'm talking 'bout me here) have gained quite a few el-bees from stress eating during this pandemic. And many of us have acquired a thick mid-section due to menopause. However, it's no reason to give up on looking your best down the shore, at the lake, or pool or during your resort travels.Which brings me to this ridiculously flattering bathing suit!When I spotted this cutie advertised on a youthful and well-toned body, I thought, hmmm. Since it's advertized as "tummy slimming" perhaps this woman is really 35 pounds heavier and the swimsuit delivered on the tummy-slimmimg. In addition, the style was very chic and flattering. But--would it deliver?It did.I'm happy to report that this bathing suit is so wonderful on a good number of points. First of all, please order your regular size. IRL I'm an 8 and thanks to stress-eating I'm teetering on a 10. After mulling over the Medium or Large, I settled on the Medium. Remember, swimsuits expand when wet so you want to get as close a fit as you can.The fit? It's great. I'm just a tad under 5 feet 6 inches. My legs aren't the longest, but my torso IS long-waisted. This can cause an issue with the majority of one-piece bathing suits. Luckily, this swimsuit fits beautifully. I don't have to pull out the bottom from being wedged in between my ample cheeks AND I don't have to worry about severe camel-toe from the front of the suit riding up my origin of the world! The fit is absolutely wonderful.Does it hold in my belly? Yeah. It does--to a point. A bit of the gut still pops out, but for the most part, it sucks the bad bits in. This suit also comes with detachable soft cups. Let's talk about this for a moment. I'm a hard-cup, flotation device pads kinda woman. After years of breastfeeding and with age comes a bit of sagging. If you have the saggy girls, might I suggest investing in a pair of hard cups because they insert perfectly and give a more flattering and youthful silhoutte and hold those babies up to be at their perkiest!The rusching is also an added feature for slimming. And that neckline. Oh lord, how I love that squared-off neckline.I''ll tell you something else. My husband is Parisien. That means he believes himself to be an expert on women's fashion. (eyeroll) He usually gives the French Shrug to any one-piece I've worn but..when I exited out of the ocean in this, he gave his seal of approval and told me that this bathing suit is spectacular. So I'm gonna surprise him by treating myself to a second one that he can pay for!Look. I realize that it's July and this summer has almost passed us by . But due to circumstances beyond our control, there's still plenty of sun and swime time! But for the remaining days till the Fall, this is the only suit you will need. The comfort level is stellar, as is the fit and it is flattering to boot. And don't even get me started on the price. It's better in price AND quality than any of the garbage I've seen in department and specialty stores geared to the older woman or ANY woman .This is an excellent suit and I'm glad I ordered it.Thank you for reading this review and I hope you enjoyed it!

Jamais je ne mettrais une photo de moi en maillot sur internet... mais je suis tellement contente de mon achat! Vraiment grande qualité (surtout pour le prix) très bon soutien, grandeur parfaite (xl). Acheté principalement pour aquagym mais approprié pour toute occasion.

I wanted to wait until I had tested this cozzie in a pool, before writing a review. I swam 70 fairly energetic lengths, this morning, and this costume kept everything in place, perfectly.I am approaching 70, so, naturally, everything has gone a bit southwards. I have a small pot belly with a bit of an "apron". The ruching disguises both of these, nicely. The tummy control isn't as robust as a previous costume I had, but this suffices. I bought the size XL. I am 5ft 4 ins and it is a perfect length on me. I'm a bit top heavy (40DD) but with slimmish hips. This costume isn't baggy around the bum, nor too big in the legs. My bust is supported perfectly, in the water and on dry land. I have never had a halter necked anything before, but I find this very flattering, despite being well endowed, up top. I am so pleased with my purchase that I think I might buy a couple more, in different colours.

I wouldn't normally include pictures but I want to help other women since I know I dug deep through the reviews and pictures before picking a size. I was stuck between the L or XL and went with the L. Glad I did because it fit perfectly. I'm 5'7" and 160/165 lbs and wear a 36 DD. It's super flattering, sexy, but still provides coverage. Absolutely obsessed and glad I bought it!

The swimsuit is of good quality but too small.I printed the returns label.The post office said it was not recognised as a free returns label. It would cost me £14 to return to China !Contacted the seller ..... twice .Don’t bother ordering unless you are sure it fits .Would not recommend this firm.
