Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Slimming Swimwear Tankini Top Print

I purchased the darkest navy leaves tankini top and it is a pretty denim like blue (not usually fond of blue bathing suits). Great support (I am a 34C bust) for an almost 60 year old. The only thing I might have liked is the top to be a bandeaukini like a previous one I purchased from you. It had a hidden bra clip in the back but nevertheless this one has fantastic support! Going back for a swimskirt and who knows maybe another tankini top! Please make one in citrus colors such as orange or lime!

Only tankini left in black and white! It is fine, though I probably could have used one a size larger!

The suit is pretty and it fits well but the skirt is way too long in proportion to the top

I wish there was a bit more support in the bra and straps for us larger chested women.

This swimskirt worked well for me since i am not a young woman. I like the way it fits and hides my lack of a derriere. It also has control for the stomach area also.

I really liked this tankini top just wish it came in long/tall, that is why I gave 4 stars.

One of the better made tanks for the bigger busted swimmers. Would like to see a tankini that is similar with underwire for additional shape and support.

love the suit except for the fact the skirt and top both float up and get in the way when swimming. If you could tac both down so they did not float up it would be wonderful otherwise easy on and off looks nice until trying to swim with skirt and top floating up

This is a very flattering suit top; I just wish it came in a petite size.

Very pleased with this swimsuit. It's comfortable and practical, too. The floral print is gorgeous, although it doesn't seem to match up very well, front to back. However, this is only noticeable to me.

Once I got it on it looked and fit nicely BUT it was a wrestling match to get it off. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to take off when wet. I am returning this top.

I usually wear a size large top and ordered this in a 14. It's super tight! It's very cute and is a nice top, but order a size up. And don't even attempt to put it on if you are even a little wet. You'll dislocate your shoulders trying to get the thing on, and you WILL need a second set of hands!

This bathing suit is pretty and looks nice. Does feel quite snug on though, although it is my correct size.

I normally wear a 12 top for bathing suits. I ordered a 14 based on the reviews. It fits snugly. I think I could take a 16. I'm keeping it because I need the support. I haven't had a chance to swim in it yet due to the closures, but I have some concerns the straps may dig it. I'm definitely going to give it a try! It's pretty and flattering.

I was delightfully surprised to go into LL BEan yesterday in Freeport and find they have really ramped up their selection of women's bathing suit tops! And, I came out with 3 new tops- all flattering and good fit overall. I wear a 12 - but went for the 14 - my entire life with bathing suit tops I have always gone up a size. I like the thinner straps with these tankini tops- they are more flattering than the thick tank top tankini straps. I am pleased! I purchased this in both a print AND solid.

I purchased this top to go with swim shorts I already owned. Based on other reviews, I ordered one size larger than I normally would (14 instead of 12) and it fit perfectly. It's easy to put on, comfortable to wear and has good coverage.

Way too tight. Am trying a smaller size.

I bought two of these bathing suits for a recent trip to the Jersey shore. The turquoise suit really looked nice and I received compliments on the beautiful color.The black one was nice but more subdued. I purchased a size 14 for the top because I did not want cleavage but found that the top had adjustable straps which helped. I bought the 12 for the bottom. The fabric on the bottom is very heavy and seemed to cling to my body when I exited the water. It took a while to dry. I would recommend it for the look of the suit but maybe not so much for the very heavy wet feeling.

It is very nice & seems slimming. I only gave it 4 stars because of size. I normally would wear a 10 or 12 but after reading all the reviews I opted to try the 14. Very happy I did as this fits perfectly. I would recommend going up at least 1 size.

Good coverage. Good fit, but I find it challenging to take off after swimming!

I liked the fit of the tankini top, but it was just not flattering on me. The pattern seemed to accentuate my stomach. I went with another style.

This is a really cute and flattering swim top. I really like it and think it's flattering when wearing. The only complaint I have is it's a little difficult to get off when it's wet. Maybe I should have ordered a size up?

The top is fairly true to size, runs maybe a bit small. (I normally would have ordered a ten except other customers said it ran small.) The claim for the slimming look - maybe a little. It won't work miracles.If you're just a bit chubby in the tummy like I am it helps some.

the material is soft and smooth love the fit .Did go up a size.

The bra size is a little small for a fourteen, but it seems to be fairly supportive anyway. I tried several styles and this was the only one that worked. I am a D cup usually.
