Straps too long - no support
I did not have the issues that others did with this suit being too short. It's not overly long, but especially with the high rise skirt I bought with it, it's fine for me (I'm 5' 4", but I do like my tops long). However, I was very disappointed in the straps. They are adjustable, but they aren't moveable like some in the past have been. If I could crisscross the straps, this would be great. As it is, they're way loose and very unsupportive, even cinched up as short as they'll go. If the straps could be made tighter, I think this would be a fairly supportive suit (at least as much as is possible for my 42G chest). I love that the neckline is straight across as I always feel like I am coming out the top of even the more conservative cut suits, and this one was great. Overall, I loved it, enough so that I'm going to try to get my seamstress to either shorten the straps or crisscross them for me so I can make it work!

Underwire - yay!
I wore this tankini to an indoor water park with a swim skirt bottom. I didn't find it to be too short as others had, but the skirt I was wearing came up farther than others, too.
I was so glad I found something with an underwire! However, I'd love to see you start offering tankinis with bra sizes instead of clothing sizes; that way the fit would be even more exact.
The fabric is a good quality; not thin. I like the gathering in front to hide my tummy.
The straps were substantial; not too thin.

Lacking Support
I ordered the size that would fit my bra size in the cups. When it arrived, it was not supportive enough and I had to return it. The comments about the top being too short wasnt a problem. I am about 5'3'' but very curvy on top. My waist is smaller than my shirt size. I was disappointed because I really like the colors and pattern.

Tankini length is too short
I ordered a size 22. The tankini length is too short for my, I'm 5'8". Also I am a large chested woman, but the wire in the bra portion was much too wide. The wire ended poked me under the arm, as my DD girls did not fill up the cup. Weird fit! I really wish Lands End would make more tops either w/o the wire or improve the fit to match a particular bra size.

flattering - in one size larger
This is a very attractive tankini top. I like the square neck a lot - it does not show too much cleavage and since this will be worn mostly at the local park district pool with all the kids, that was the goal.
Luckily, I was at a local Sears store and was able to try on multiple sizes. My regular size was much too tight; one size up fits great. I took off a star for sizing issues. If I had ordered online, I would have been disappointed and not likely to exchange it for a larger size. I would have just moved on to something else. If the larger size were my regular size, I would have given it 5 stars.

Lovely!
the built-in bra has excellent support and the top, overall, is flattering for me. The pattern of the material is bright and the material is the perfect weight. Definitely recommend this swim piece.

nice coverage!
I tried several tops. And as a large busted gal, this top had the best coverage. The fit is comfortable. and the colors are beautiful.

perfect everywhere except in length
This top holds me in quite well in the bust, but I am really disappointed that it is so short! I don't like the high-rise bottoms - I get too hot in something like that, and high-rise stuff tends to just roll down on me anyway. And I can't order 'long" because those don't come in DD. I just want a top that's a little longer. This is the first time I've ever been disappointed in Land's End!!

Needs to be longer
I ordered this, but have not actually worn it to the pool yet because it is only April. It appears to be a good-quality garment, however I am disappointed that it is quite short. Lands End, when designing for the plus-size woman you need to realize that most of us do not want to show our tummy. I'm glad I ordered the high-rise bottom to go with this top, otherwise I would have sent it back. This is way too expensive for the fit to not be exactly right! I would not recommend this product to other women unless they were okay with showing some tummy at the pool. For what I paid for this suit I am not fully satisfied.

The Perfect Swim Top for Busty Girls!
After trying on many LE Plus size suits, this suit top in the black Tahiti paisley came out on top! I'm a 38DD and ordered sizes 16W and 18W in both regular D size and DD size. The difference between the D and DD was not that noticeable but in the end, the D size seemed to squeeze my chest in more (both from the sides and front to back) - which is minimizing so I went with the D cup even though I wear a 38DD bra. The adjustable straps really give me great lift and the neckline is super flattering with great coverage. There is also good bust coverage on the sides so no unsightly bulges. I did not find the top too short (I'm 5'4) although I did select Plus Swim Mini 430476 which provides great tummy control because of it's high waist. That bottom would solve any concerns about a short top and the two together are stellar. On top of everything, the pattern was pretty, somewhat youthful and a vibrant contrast of stunning color that does not look too "granny". This is my ideal swim top and I would order it in solid colors if they were available.
