I haven't worn it in the water yet, just tried it on and it fits great.

By Tasha from Lansdale PA on 10/19/2008

This suit fits me beautifully! I am a tall plus sized woman and I was pleasantly surprised that the tankini provided pleny of support in the bust. It flatters and controls in all the correct places.

By Ginny from Colorado on 10/18/2008

I hate buying swimming suits but this one fit perfect. My problem area is stomach & waist & this suit did a great job of hiding those areas & actually made me look slimmer. Most tankini tops show my stomach but this covered it. I would like to buy more in other colors, that's how much I liked it. It made my trip to Jamaica stress free swimming suit wise.

By Big Ruth from Baltimore, Maryland on 10/17/2008

I was planning to take the tankini with me when I went on vacation, but it arrived the day after I returned. The fabric feels very nice and fits well. Have already recommended the tankini to a friend.

By cmppmorr from Huntsville Alabama on 10/16/2008

[...] and looks and fits as expected.

By Barb from Bellingham, Wa. on 10/15/2008

I hate buying bathing suits so having it fit good and look great was wonderful.

By Boblueeyes from Florida on 10/10/2008

I love this top it not only fits good it looks great so many compliments, so nice alone or with a blouse over the top

By Lesliek from Houston, TX on 10/9/2008

I love this top.I ordered a 12, one size larger than my usual 10 and it fit well.

By Beading Babe from Florida on 10/8/2008

This swim suit can be either sexy or not. The tie can be adjusted to what you feel comfortable in.

By Susan from San Diego on 10/8/2008

The top has an unflattering cut in the bust line. The bottoms are skimpy and don't cover properly. The design is very cute. It looks great in the picture. Disappointed in the cut of the suit.

By stay at home mom from Blackfoot Idaho on 10/8/2008

All the reviews say to buy a bigger size than you would normaly wear and I did and it was WAY to big. Buy your regular size.

By pattieg from Bellevue WA on 10/7/2008

I thought this was an entire bathing suit and was very surprised to only receive the top no bottom to the suit

By Shaun from Saginaw, Michigan on 10/2/2008

Might want to buy a size bigger to get a better look.

By bcwilson4 from Baker City, OR on 10/1/2008

I really liked the look of this top. It was flattering and cute! The main drawback for me and the reason I am returning it is the bra just has inserts that aren't attached and when you put it on you have to rearrange those so they aren't doubled up. I don't want to have to fight with it every time I wear it. If that part would have been designed better...i.e. nonmoving parts, I would be keeping the top.

By huntergirl2 from boaz alabama on 10/1/2008

I love the swimsuit tops, I cant wait to get to use them.

By Kendra from Los Angeles, CA on 9/25/2008

I think the style is a little bit out of protortion. It was a little flared at the waist but it wasn't long enough to hit the top of the swinsuit bottoms so it just looked funny.

By BECCA from GA on 9/25/2008

These little takini tops are the BEST to wear - we are with lots of people either at the pool or the lake and I don't have to worry about "falling" out - these are very practical.
Love them ! I think I ended up ordering 4 !!!

By none from North CArolina on 9/23/2008

I would love to have had it in a larger (queen or women's) size

By Tennis Player from Maryland on 9/19/2008

Top is too blousy to be flattering.

By None from Ohio & Florida on 9/12/2008

Will use for the beach, pool and yard work

By Momma to boys from Chandler, AZ on 9/10/2008

This is a very pretty swimsuit, but runs very small. I am a 38C and normally a size 6-8 (Med). The size 10 I purchased was still a little snug. Probably should have gone to 12. Despite the size difference, I don't believe the comfort level would have been any better. When the knot front sash is taken off (yes, it's removable) the swimsuit is more comfortable. Thin sewn-in bra pads are loose within the material and will move needing to be adjusted. Despite the shortcomings, it is a pretty color, decent quality and I would purchase another in a larger size.

By Tess-too much stomach for my body! from Louisville KY on 9/3/2008

Great swim top, also I like to wear it as a top with shorts in hot weather. Very comfortable.

By april from Jackson, NJ on 9/3/2008

Did not specify the color - looked black but was brown. Just did not flatter or fit right.

By G's Mom from Iowa on 8/29/2008

I don't think it would offer a lot of support for larger chests. Very cute and is pretty flattering and fun.

This runs small if you are large chested. I usually wear a medium or size 8 but am a D cup. I had to order a size 14 but it fits and looks great!

By luv2krooz from Brownville, Maine on 8/27/2008

I bought this swimtop to wear with a skirted bottom. It fits very well and is comfortable.

By marsha the lake person from Tennessee on 8/26/2008

Great for the boat and dock

By LYNNE from MILFORD, PA 18337 on 8/26/2008

By busy mom from monkton, md on 8/26/2008

looks great on and with a plain bottom

By aimlouise from belmont ohio on 8/26/2008

It definitely needs to be ordered one size bigger.. thanks for the other reviewers who reported this.. I would've had no idea.

Also the description read adjustable straps: adjustable to me implies like a bra strap... that's not what this is. The straps just have a hook that can be placed in 3 consecutive loops.

Great top... looks very nice.

By the shopper from Elberfeld, Indiana on 8/26/2008

Fits well and looks great.

By Melissa the Mom from Connecticut on 8/16/2008

It fits great once I got the bigger size. I would recommend this to a friend and would buy it again, but I would have definitely gone with the bigger size to start with. I tried on the smaller size and had no problems exchanging with Chadwicks. Definitely take your measurements before you order.[...]Great product! Great company!

By Leslie from NC on 8/14/2008

I'm an average size 12 woman who hates bathing suit shopping! After reading other reviews, I knew to buy 1 size larger than I normally buy. It fits perfect! The straps ARE adjustable in the back. The "A" line cut flares a little at the bottom which is more flattering. I only bought the top because I already had a solid bottom I could wear with it.

By Baseball Mom from Corona, CA on 8/14/2008

The straps are not placed in the same spot as pictured in your catalog. I am going to remove them and place them further apart in the front as pictured. The strap placement was one of the reasons I ordered this top. Its style needs a wider spread strap to give a more flattering fit. The length turned out to be all right, but when compared to the picture it is much shorter. Being a bit taller I often judge a garment by how it appears on the model. I really like it when you give actual garment lengths, especially on tops. You have started doing that on some of your tops again I noticed, Thanks! Overall the suit is a cute design and appears well made, but definitely not for larger busted women.

By Wendy from Maryland on 8/12/2008

Fits good. Very flattering.

By none from cedar grove, nj on 8/12/2008

i love it - bring back in different colors and prints.

By Sunnie from Charlotte, NC on 8/12/2008

Good looking...stylish, sexy, but provides coverage where needed

By Cherie from Girard, PA on 8/10/2008

After reading the previous product reviews, I was concerned about buying the right size. I disregarded the sizing charts and ordered my regular size and it fits perfectly! I'm in my mid 40's and found the coverage to be adequate even though I'm a bit on the larger busted size. I have hand washed this suit several times and so far it's holding up well. I am very pleased with this suit!

By Theresa from Denton, TX on 8/8/2008

Replacement order was better than expected. I love it better than my orginal order.

By Barbara from Los Angeles, CA on 8/6/2008

Comfortable, good quality & fit & cute.

By LBF from Troy, MI on 8/5/2008

Order a larger size than you usually order, this runs small.

By Shoppercat from Sharpsburg GA on 8/1/2008

This top has a youthful style but not too bare. It has good coverage and moderately good support. I like the slightly longer length and non clingy fit.

By Mer from Charlotte, NC on 8/1/2008

I use this going to the pool. It is wonderful. It is very flattering. And fits perfectly.

By Judy from Williamsville, NY on 8/1/2008

The problem I had, I thought it included whole suit. Description says "Knot-front tankini".......it was kinda misleading, made it sound like the whole "tankini" was included. LOL, I did think that wouldv'e been an unbelievable price, and it was!!!

By Evie Baby from Wilmington, NC on 7/31/2008

Good suit!

By Becca from Baraga, MI on 7/30/2008

Flattering

By want comfort for the price from Illinois on 7/30/2008

I ordered the tankini top in May and only received the bottom (the top was backordered). I wanted the whole suit for my vacation but was told it would not arrive until mid June. I agreed to wait on it and at the end of June still did not have it! I FINALLY received it in late July and eagerly put the whole suit on to go swimming. It was AFTER I removed the tags that I discovered the swimsuit bottom fit poorly and rides up constantly. I will keep it because I waited so long for the complete suit...however, just a warning...walk around the house in the bottoms before removing the tags!!

By Terry from Conn. on 7/30/2008

Great by the pool

By The Dancer from Baltimore on 7/29/2008

I was very pleased with this item. I feel comfortable in it and it fits well.

By Barb from Tucson, AZ on 7/29/2008

Very cute. I bought it a size larger than I usually ware and it fits perfect. LOVE IT!! Would recommend to anyone!

By KK from Memphis, TN on 7/29/2008

I thought it wws black & white so I did not order bottoms but it was brown & white and I don't have bottoms to match????

By Dog Mom from Cincinnat, Ohio on 7/26/2008

I ordered one size larger than I normally wear because I didn't want it to be tight. It actually feels like it's a size SMALLER than I normally wear. I'm not even sure two sizes bigger would fit right. I'm returning it.

By ==== from MA on 7/26/2008

color not as it looked on line
bra cups arenot secured to garment and move

By Jen from Mansfield, OH on 7/24/2008

I read the reviews on this and knew to order a size larger than I normally wear. The bust still ended up being tight and I didn't like how it looked on me. If you are "well-endowed", this style might not be for you...

By heather from boomer, wv on 7/23/2008

love the color I chose, however, I was a little disappointed when I received my package and there was no bottoms. The magazine makes it look as if it all comes together, when I called, whoever I spoke to claimed it is sold seperately, I never would have paid 14.00-20.00 for a top. Otherwise, very pleased

By nn from n on 7/23/2008

The straps are too long. It would be a better product if the straps were adjustable.

By the bathing suit collector from hobbs, nm on 7/23/2008

I have received more than 5 compliments on this tankini top. I already had bottoms to match it and my other favorite tankini top wore out and now this is my new favorite. I am not exactly skinny, and in my late 30's so this "not too form fitting" top is just right for me. Yet it is still flattering and cute.

By Myself from Central PA on 7/22/2008

This top does run small as has been noted by numerous reviewers. I usually wear a 10 or 12, depending on the cut, so ordered a 12 and think maybe a 14 would have been even better. The cups just aren't large enough at your regular size. That being said, order up a size or even 2 and you will be fine. The style is very slimming and flattering. Top is long enough for good coverage. The colors for the dot print surprised me - it's a red orange, chocolate brown, and aqua print. I had thought it would be hot pink, black, and turquoise from the sample. I still like it but can't wear it with the black bottom I had planned. Maybe Chadwick's would consider noting the colors in the description somewhere for prints.

By Jillian from Doral, Florida on 7/22/2008

Great for small parties at home if you have a pool. It offers good coverage but still stylish and sexy.

By satisfied in Indiana from Indiana on 7/22/2008

This top is perfect for a mix and match swimsuit attire, I got it two different colors.

By Betty from Milton, De on 7/22/2008

Wish I could have gotten the color I picked first as this is a perfect fit for me.

By voodoo Lily from san diego on 7/20/2008

Better on smaller sizes

By KS from Cincinnati, OH on 7/18/2008

I was surprised at how supportive the bra cups were.

By Beanie from Upstate, NY on 7/17/2008

Really cute. I ordered a size up from what I take in a top, but I have found in the past that swimwear runs a bit smaller. I like the removable tie in the front. I purchased this in the black and white floral. I will mix and match some other tops with a black bikini bottom, black swim shorts and a black swim skirt.

By Leti from Knoxville TN on 7/17/2008

Loved the fit...very flattering look. The color was not what I expected.[...]Would definitely buy another one.

By nancy from MA on 7/16/2008

Great buy for the price
