Too much wire, not enough control
My first LE swimsuit rejection: I am 48 years old, 5"3", 200 lbs, with a 38D chest. I thought the underwire would provide the support I would need for the girls but I just tried this on and it doesn't. Although the fabric is lovely and the print very becoming with a solid blue swim mini, the halter style combined with the thinness of the fabric just didn't provide the support I need. The fabric is too shear and no elasticity or stretchyness to hold things in. The underwire is very thick and uncomfortable. I tried tying the halter more but didn't think I could stand the uncomfortable pulling on my neck for any length of time. Hope this helps someone else.

does not look at all like on the model
Looks very different on the model. Fits big in the bust area and the straps are falling down. It would have been more benificial if the models were actually plus sizes for the plus size line of products.Maybe have models that are actually obese instead of a few pounds over weight. I wish I could have tried this on before purchasing the product but my nearest lands end store does not carry plus sizes.Overall though it was a great price.

Pretty but Small and Hurtful
I've bought numerous swimsuits, one piece and tankinis from Lands End before. I was always pleased and they fit me well. This one I could barely pull on and the sewn edges of the underwire cups cut into my underarms terribly within a few minutes. Not the quality and fit I have come to expect.

Really cute.
Really liked the fit and nice to find a top that not ony offers support for larger busted, but is cute too!

Accurate fit and good colors that match with several other LE bottoms and clothing
This fits very well. I am reducing weight reliably at 10#/mo so I ordered it one size too small, now it is fitting well. I like the colors, they are bright and go with so many other items and several colors of LE swimsuit bottoms. Glad to see the old LE quality again!

flattering print, comfortable
This is my 3rd or 4th suit from Land's End. Once again the fabric feels nice and I expect the elasticity to hold up for at least 3 years. My only complaint about this particular suit is that the bust area is larger than most size 10's I've worn in the past. If you are well endowed than this will be a great top for you! I got it for a great price so I won't return it, but it will be a suit I wear at home.

It fits just like the picture. At my age I need much more coverage.
The fit is way too revealing.

Pretty and practical
Good thick material which is always great with swimming attire that has a pale coloured background, specially when wet. It is pretty and practical and I look forward to wearing it on the dog beach!

Way too small
There is no way a person could get this suit on alone, the separate bra is impossible to hook and the whole thing ran very small. I sent it back.

very comfortable
I've needed a plus sized swimsuit that also gives some support for a long time. I tried on this suit and it fits very comfortably. I haven't had a chance to swim in it to see how much it stretches. It does seem kind of loose, but that could be because it is a tankini top and I am only used to regular one piece bathing suits.
