Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Slimming Swimwear Tanksuit Print

I love the suit and design -- the fit is still to be determined, but I have a feeling it may be a suit just to sunbathe in and not snorkel as I believe it needs a little help on the upper back to ensure the straps don't fall off the shoulder

Pretty color. Slimming. Comfortable I have broad shoulders and suit fits slightly snug at shoulders. But should work out fine

This is a great fitting nice looking bathing suit!! I will defiantly get another color.

It was a bit snug in the hip area but the rest of the suit was well fitting.

For tall size longer then expected. Good material though.

Good suit , would buy again, nice style and attractive print.

I liked this bathing suit except for the criss cross in the bosom area, it gapped somewhat there for I returned it. Fabric and fit was good.

Very nice slimming suit and I've gotten compliments on it. For being a long though I'm still tugging on it. I love LL Bean swimsuits. I got the black print.

Love this suit. Great silhouette for my size and shape. Cute design and well made!

I bought the swimsuit with the teal flowers on a navy background. It looks lovely and fits well. I recommend this suit.

I like this swimsuit. I got the black & white print. The only minor problem is the straps fill with water, or air, like balloons. It looks momentarily funny but goes away and isn't uncomfortable, and overall it's a very functional and cute swimsuit.

I would have liked it better if the straps were adjustable, slightly larger on top

Great suit, attractive colors, long length is great. Bust area a little large for me. May have to take in a bit to fit better. Not full busted. This is a size 14 long.

I really liked this suit but I would not be comfortable wearing it. I bought theb10 long but felt like I would pulling it up or tugging it down constantly. It just did not cover enough for me. Well made beautiful print and could be lovely on someone with a shorter torso.

I found this to be very slimming on me. It fit good. Did not go high up on the legs. Pretty color. If it had more bust support would have rated it a 5 star.

This suit is really quite lovely; beautiful color and appears very well made. It just did not do a thing for my geriatric body. I wish that someone out there working in bathing suit design would realize that these conservative tanks are usually bought by older or "real-bodied" women and make the back so it hugs the bottom of your butt instead of encouraging soft flesh to "ooze out". I have no desire to spend my entire day tugging at my bathing suit. For younger women with a firm butt, this suit will work fine

This is a beautiful, high quality suit. It did not work for me as the top, though supportive, was too large and gaps. A different body type than mine, it will be lovely.

The bottom of the suit fits perfectly, but from the waist up, it has no slimming effect because it is too loose Also, the cups are too big. I wear bra size 42D and I was 'floating' in the top of this suit. No support or structure whatsoever! I'm going to try a size 20. I hope it works because it really is a lovely suit!

I love these one piece swimsuits made of chlorine resistant Italian made fabric. They really do stand up well to regular swims in a pool. I always rinse out my suit in clear water and hang to air dry after every swim. I bought the first suit about 10 years ago, and although it has lost some elasticity, it is great for wearing in the hot tub. My latest purchase fits well, and is actually easier to put on than the one I bought about 5 years ago...the elastic slimming panel is not quite so snug, so the suit is easier to pull up/down over my hips. The new suit shoulder straps are wider and stay in place for swimming, but for a more youthful look I would have preferred them to be narrower. I like the lower cut back and the print which is mostly a blend of turquoise and blues.

As a lap swimmer, over time I have bought three of these suits in lovely patterns. The suit is flattering and wears well with soaking after being in a chlorinated pool. The leg openings are modest, which is hard to find elsewhere. My issue with the style is that the bust is too large. I am a "C" cup, and am lost in the top of this suit, especially on the sides.

I was looking for a cheap suit because I swim a lot, and the chlorine destroys the fabric. I was surprised by the suit and the way it fit, and how much I liked it.

This bathing suit fits the length of my torso perfectly (size regular, 5'3"). I'm 135 lbs and the size 10 fits well and is flattering. I am pear-shaped and it does slightly creep up on my bottom and gape on the top when I sit down, which is a common problem for my small chest. Overall it fits better than most bathing suits and is very nice quality.

While my need for size 16 was Covid weight gain related and my bust is not quite there, this bathing suit was an awesome find at the last minute before going on vacation. Even better it was on sale! It does a great job of hiding the tummy. First time I've not been embarrassed to be seen on the beach in a while. I think taking up the straps a bit will take care of the bust issue But I'm really happy with this bathing suit.

I have never bought swimsuits online before, but ordered 4 from LLBean. Two in size 14 (which I usually wear because I am short waisted and in a larger size the straps fall down) and two in 16 (because I have gained weight in my tummy). This size16 fit pretty well. My tummy is still there but not as noticeable as in other suits. The straps feel a little loose but so far they have stayed up, even in water aerobics class. The material feels substantial and the print is beautiful. I wish the dcolletage plunge was straight across.

The suit fit perfectly, if you're a size D cup. I'm a B. I guess they think because you wear a size 18, you have a large chest as well. Disappointed because everything else about the suit fit well, and the "slimming" part actually worked! :-)
