Nice addition to my Beach Living bottoms
The print and vibrant colors drew me to this, as well as a different v-neck/halter than in the current Beach Living collection. This also looked to be a bit longer than some tankini tops, and it is ... nice overlay and no gap between it and my mid-rise solid tankini bottoms. The "grape" print will coordinate with both black and navy. The print isn't as vibrant in person, but still beautiful. I'm 5'3" and between 190 and 200. I took a chance on ordering a 16 and it fits beautifully. The fabric flows nicely over my stomach, but is thinner so I'll be doing some "sucking in" getting out of the pool. The separate bra band strap is a nice touch. The bust fits me best (B-C cup) without the pads. My 4-boat rating for the print not as vibrant in person, and a lighter-weight fabric. Only time will tell re durability for the season.

My favorite style yet!
I've been wearing Lands' End swim suits for years, and this is the most flattering fit yet! I'm a size 14 and 36/38 D, and the 14 fit perfectly and was so flattering! Not at all frumpy, but still modest enough for hanging out with the kids at the pool. My only suggestion would be to also offer coordinating swim skirts for this style. I'm not comfortable in a brief style bottom, and the available swim skirts don't coordinate that well with the current prints. I'd love to see this style offered in more colors, including solids in the future!

This is the perfect fit!
This is the perfect tankini top for those who have a small chest wall size and yet needs a lot of support within the cups. It is like wearing a push up bra except it is hidden. The band is adjustable so you get the snug fit that keeps the "bra" in place and the cups are very supportive and definitely enhance your busts with just the right amount of support. The halter strap can be adjusted perfectly for your individual fit. The top is not too snug so it's forgiving if you have bulges above the bottoms or around the bra band. It's very flattering!

This Cup size way too small.
I was disappointed in the purchase of this suit. I measured according to the chart and I already knew I needed a D cup which is what the measurements suggested. I ordered the D cup and I was literally falling out of it. I usually wear a bra size 34 D so I know what that should look and feel like. I am a small build but not overweight at all. Recommend either ordering cup size up or look elsewhere.

Great for women who need bust support but still want to look pretty!
I saw this tankini in the catalog and decided to check it out at the nearest Land's End store. I was pleasantly surprised at the great fit! I am a 38D and have a long torso being that I am 5'9" tall. The regular 14 fit perfect! The length fell about 5 inches below my navel so I did not have to purchase the long. It has an underwire bra inside the tankini (there is a hidden 2 hook strap with 3 adjustments for a good fit). I normally do not like halter styles as they tend to hurt my neck, but due to the strong support, it did not hurt at all. I purchased it with the black swimshorts, as I am very active at the lake and paddleboard etc. I am really looking forward to wearing this suit this season!
