    Tie Front Bikini Top

    I love this bikini top. My regular size, 34DD, was not available so I purchased the “sister” size, 36D. The 36D fits good but not like my size of 34DD.

    I am able to take in the 36D just a smidge

    Fits like a glove and holds up beautifully over time.

    Band is too loose

    I ordered the band size I’ve been using for all bras and sized swimsuits for the past 10+ years and the band on this suit is extremely loose. Even with the straps tightened all the way and the band hiked up in back the band is still loose and does not provide support. Because of this the underwire doesn’t sit properly and not only doesn’t help with support but is uncomfortable.

    The sad thing is that I think I would really like this suit if it did fit properly but I’m not interested in spending my time, money and energy trying to figure out what size would actually fit.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that the swimsuit did not fit as expected, especially since you've worn the same band size in bras and swimwear for many years.

    We understand how frustrating it can be when a suit doesn't provide the support and comfort you were expecting. Based on your description, it sounds like the band is fitting looser than anticipated, which can affect both the positioning of the underwire and the overall level of support.

    While we strive for consistent sizing, fit can vary between brands and even between different styles within the same brand due to differences in design, fabric, construction, and support features. Because of these variations, the size that works perfectly in one swimsuit or bra may fit differently in another style.

    We'd be happy to provide a personalized fit consultation to help determine whether a different size or style may offer the fit and support you're looking for. If you're interested, please send us your current bra size, the size you ordered, and one of our fit specialists can make some recommendations based off the information provided.

    We completely understand your hesitation to spend additional time and effort trying to find the right fit, and we appreciate your honest feedback. Your comments help us improve our products and fit guidance, and we're sorry this experience did not meet your expectations.

    If you'd like assistance, we're here to help.

    Cute but not flattering

    I ordered a 36H, (my usual size). This top is super cute and comfortable. The fabric doesn’t look or feel cheap and the print looks really well done.

    However, I don’t think it’s particularly flattering on me. It has built in wires, so it supports nicely, but it doesn’t hold me up as well as I hoped. The girls sag unflatteringly for me, and I know it’s not the size because I got some other styles in the same size that do exactly what I need. It’s cute, it just doesnt make me look good.

    Hi Mackenzie,

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you find the Tie Front Bikini Top cute, comfortable, and well made, and that you’re happy with the fabric and print quality.

    Based on your experience with the fit and lift, it may simply be that this particular style is not the best match for your shape and support needs, even though you ordered your usual size. Different swim styles can provide very different levels of lift and projection.

    If you would like, please feel free to reach out to us directly. We would be happy to review your measurements and help you find alternative styles that offer the level of lift and shaping you are looking for while still keeping comfort and style in mind.
