    Carmela is probably as good as we can hope for.

    I haven't worn it into the water yet, but it fits OK. Larger cup size options than DDD are definitely needed!

    Fading already

    I started wearing this suit to the pool about a month ago and it’s already beginning to fade. It’s still holding its shape but I feel it won’t last more than a few months. The wiring began to protrude and I removed them.

    Beware of underwire

    I've not yet had a chance to swim in it (broken bone). It looks good but I missed the bit that said it has an underwire bra which made it difficult to get on and off.

    (no review title)

    This swimming costume fits my bust better than any swimming costume I have had before . I feel very secure in it without it being too tight. Because I’m only 5’1” I do find it a bit long for my torso. But anyone normal height would find it a great fit all round. I wish You would make it in a petite size with the under wired DDD for me that would make it fit perfectly.

    Nice Looking Suit

    Bought this in September and it finally shipped in mid October, then the package was lost, and finally received the end of October. Took over 6 weeks to get to me, but I love this suit. Tucks me in, in all the right places. Not sure it was worth the 6 week wait though .

    Very supportive and sturdy

    This is very flattering and very supportive, other swimsuits feel like they’re just hanging off and are so uncomfortable. This is flattering and supportive, the built in bra is great and I love the fit.

    Love it...but!

    I am so happy to finally find a swimsuit that fully supports my larger bust! I am an "H" cup and the "G" fit me just fine! I also LOVE the criss-cross back. I only wish the leg openings were a little higher cut. The straight across leg openings give an otherwise really stylish swimsuit a 1950's...old lady look.

    Great Swimsuit!

    At first I didn't like the swimsuit because I've used to built-in bras. But after using it, I found the formal bra doesn't matter, and the breast area holds it's shape with gathers. I love the crossed straps in the back because the straps never fall down on my shoulders. The material is quality and firmly holds shape. All in all it's a great swimsuit and as I continue to lose weight, I intend to purchase another in a smaller size.

    Best Suit Ever!

    Bought one last year in the emerald purple for Cancun and wished I had bought 2. This year we are going to Puerta Vallarta and I bought a second one in black. I did order the long torso just to make sure it didn’t dig into my shoulders. Perfect! It holds the girls in place and has enough support to take the straps down to get a no line tan. I highly recommend this suit.

    Too much southern exposure.

    I loved almost everything about this suit, but had to return it. The fit at the top was really good and looked nice. However, the leg holes were too large, and parts of me showed that no one else should see. I love Lands End tugless tanks, and hoped this suit would fit at the bottom like they do, but, alas, it's just not the case.

    Best Suit For Me

    I always buy this style of suit. It's the best fit for my long torso and being I am big busted it is really supportive and holds the "girls" in. I pray they never discontinue or change this suit!

    Plus long is great fit. Hope it resists chlorine

    Plus long is great fit. Also great support. This is my favorite suit and I have bought more than 10’over the years. Hope chlorine resistance is improved.
