Wow, great service by Zappos! I ordered this yesterday at 2:00 PM and got it today, and it is a holiday weekend! This was my second order for this. The first one was too tight around the band at the bust but all right around the midriff. The larger size was just right around the band but too large throughout. Unfortunately, this will have to be returned.
I just received this suit and it is a keeper! While I would not do a lot of swimming in this suit due to the non-adjustable straps, it will be great for sitting around the pool. I got the grey color. It is not a color I see often. Overall, I am pleased with this suit.
Not enough chest support, I will be returning only for that fact. Other than that it fits nice and comfy.

The underwire hits in a weird place - does not sit underneath breasts, but hits in the middle. I tried two different sizes and they both did the same thing.
I wanted to love this top, but it just didn't work out. The top was too loose around the top band. I needed at least a size smaller than my normal size. Also, it really needs an underwire or other type of built in support. There was a little bit of black lining, but it provided no support at all. Even with a smaller size, the lack of chest support would be a deal breaker for me. So sad.
I have a 36' waist and 43' hips and this was a little snug on me in those areas. The bust part also seemed like your nipple might show through at some point in the water. So I ended up returning it for another athena swimsuit
This is such a cute top! I got it in a size 14 and it fits close to perfect (I wish the bust were a bit smaller). At first I thought maybe it showed too much chest, but it doesn't show it on me, just seems to elude that it is there. And my husband feels comfortable with me wearing this and finds it sexy! So that is a super plus to me.
I have a small bust and a larger waist and bottom (I think its called a tear shape). And the size 16 fit perfectly everywhere except for the bust (was baggy there). So I had to return it. But it was a lovely suit and very comfortable. I chose another Athena swimwear product (one that has a top and a bottom) those seem to fit me better than the one-piece.
I love this top! Lots of support up top. Also long enough for me. I'm 5'9". I paired it with the Miraclesuit Basic Pant. Looks great! Can't wait to take this one on vacation!

I cannot describe how thrilled I am with this purchase. I never get in a bathing suit in front of anyone, ever...even in my own back yard. My husband gets upset about it, but I am too self conscious. I always feel insecure and and the "girls" always look squished, like they are just going to pop out. It's definitely not attractive! Bathing suits are uncomfortable for me to say the least. I am very large busted, but I have a small back. If I get something that fits around my back, there is no place for the "girls". Nothing fits (never mind look good). But this! It's amazing. I did a lot of research and settled on this. I didn't expect it to fit, much less look good and be comfortable. Especially buying online. But I am amazed. It's so cute, and sexy! My husband absolutely loves this. I will definitely get into my pool this Memorial Day! (In front of people!) It feels like a nightgown, looks like a million bucks and keeps the girls in place without looking like they are going to burst right out of the top. I thought the price was high. But after trying it on and feeling the quality, I think it's relatively inexpensive for the joy it will bring me! As a side note, I cannot tell you how impressed I am with the Zappos service. I ordered it at 2:00PM one day and the package was here the next day! How is that possible? It was almost freaky...I will be coming back to Zappos for other stuff and I will be buying another one of these gorgeous tankini's.

This was almost what I was looking for. Great top, nice and thick and great quality. I was looking for a strapless top that held me up, I'm a 36 DD so I thought I'd try this out. Fit great everywhere but didn't hold me up as much as I wanted it to, I think I'll send this one back, I haven't decided yet.
I purchased this for my 13 year old daughter. She is very tough to fit. She has d+ cups but doesn't want to draw attention to them and she wants to wear a bikini like her friends. This style works well and is as modest as it can be. She won't wear this suit when jumping off the diving board or when swimming rough ocean waves, but for walking around and relaxing it will work well. It looks great. She is very happy (which makes me happy).

I just received these today. I absolutely love it. They are very cute, and they fit perfectly. Also, I cannot believe how fast I got it. I would definitely order again from Zappos.

Love this skirt. I paired it with the Heavenly Halter one piece and it looked like a super cute retro swimdress. I'm normally a size 10 in pants, but it seemed to run a little small. They were out of size 12 so I ordered a 10 and 14 and kept the 14. With the 10 it was so tight that the gathers were gone on the butt. I liked the gathers so felt that the 14 gave me thigh coverage I wanted (instead of just looking like a skirt version of boyshorts, I like the extra 2-3 inches length below the crotch).

love this suit. I paired it with the Heavenly skirt and it looks like a really cute retro swim dress. I am on the very busty side (34DDD) and I thought it had decent coverage. It depends on what you are comfortable with though. Since Zappos has free return shipping, I vote you at least try this one. I am normally a size 8-10 in dresses, but I went up to a size 12 and it is a perfect fit. They were out of a size 12 in the skirt so I ordered the 10 and 14 and ended up sending back the 10. 14 fit great too. The stretchy material with so many gathers is very forgiving. Love Athena. I will definitely look for this brand when these wear out, which seems like it will be a good three years or more. It is very well sewn.
Beautiful color! Suit does run large, need to return and hope one size smaller fits. The straps are quite stretchy, so it doesn't have as much support some other brands. I am petite, and very hard to fit, but this brand and style looks good on me.
I love this tankini top! It's flattering - I wear a size 8 / 36C. It provides just the right amount of support and shows the right amount of skin without showing too much.

The skirt is amazingly comfortable and is made with the utmost quality. The material is super soft, feels delicate and silky! Can also be worn with black leggings! I've gotten tons of compliments. It is well worth the price!
Arrived fast and covers up my postpartum belly real well and easy for breastfeeding! No funny tan lines with this suit!
