Secret Slimming™ Padded Bandeau Swimsuit

This swimsuit is lovely, the rose gold detail looks great. Fit is true to size, my only issue was that it slipped down I removed the straps, so I wouldn’t recommend wearing it strapless.

This swimsuit was meant to be a size 10 when I tried it on I couldn’t even fasten the back it came nowhere near, it was more like a size 6. Had to send it back.

Not used yet, style and fit true. Support isn’t brilliant. If top heavy forget it. Regards retaining colour or durability, yet to be confirmed.

I am a standard fitting size 12 and have purchased rosie’s garments etc before. The swimsuit was ok to put on but the straps then went across the back couldn’t do up even with effort.

This was a super costume- highly supportive and very stylish. BUT.... there were METAL decorative rods at the front and metal buckles at the back. Who wants metal in hot sun? I chose another design.

I’m a size 16 (with a big bum and 34F chest) and it fits beautifully. I’m 5’9” too, so not short and I’ve found it plenty long enough. It is a bit higher cut on the leg, but that helps to smooth everything out. The fabric feels lovely. I’m only sorry it doesn’t come in other colour ways. I’ll have to buy another black one-stylish, classic and classy. Love it.

I am a size 8-10 in Marks & Spencer clothes generally (sometimes even a 6) and the size 10 was far too small - the body is very short and I don't have a long torso. Such a shame. I was so excited that this was back in stock, it looks lovely on the images and the price is excellent but I was very disappointed with the impossible fit.

The swimsuit was very nice, but quite "short". I would have needed a size up to properly fit in it, but unfortunately it was sold out, in store and online (I looked everywhere!). I returned the item and bought another swimsuit by M&S.

Far too short in the body. I am only 5 ft 2 ins but found this swimsuit very short, I could not have worn it without the strap holding it in place. Would be very uncomfortable unless bent over double!

I have to agree with all the other reviewers who said it was too short in the body. Man, did I try hard with this swimsuit: first I bought a 10 (too small in the bust), then a 14 (too baggy on the body) and finally settled on a 12. Is it perfect? No. But it could have been, had it been cut a shade more intelligently. I loved the style so much that I just wear it with my butt hanging out at one end and my cleavage on show at the other. I wish M&S would consider offering cup sizes and not just dress sizes: it's an antiquated POV when other rivals are offering 32D etc. After all, women need the right support with their swimwear just as they do with their lingerie.
