Great price
No, I don't recommend this
Bought this last week, because it was reduced in price. Having read reviews I bought a size larger than usual and it fits well. However, the zip does indeed tend to slide down whilst I am swimming, so will attach a hook and eye to secure it

Easy on
Yes, I recommend this
Easy to slip on and off, good working swimsuit. Unlike other reviewers I have had no issue with the zip. Good size/length for a tall person

Beautiful swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
I initially bought this in black and loved it so much when I saw this one in the sale I bought another. The fit is excellent and, being of a certain age, it holds everything in place nicely for my lane swimming. The colours of this one are gorgeous.

Great look!
Yes, I recommend this
Bought this last week . I was attracted to the zip as it makes it much easier to remove when wet. Looks good and a great price.

Flattering fit, but...
No, I don't recommend this
This actually a pretty good swimsuit. It was quite flattering and true to size 22. However, the bust zip just felt a little unreliable. It was hard to zip up and once you did it up didn't offer a lot of support. I think it there was something holding it together than the zip I would've kept it- I just couldn't get visions of it unzipping at an inopportune time out of my head! It could be because I'm on the larger side on top but may be suitable for smaller boobs that don't require support.

supportive
Yes, I recommend this
Lovely swimsuit, supports well for the bigger lady on top. Straps could be a little wider for me.

Good swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
Wanted costume to swim regularly in and I liked the zip. Read reviews that zip slips, but so far this has not happened. Bought the red/black which is a vibrant red. Good fit and feels nice to swim in. Bought in sale, so good value

Zip is rubbish!
No, I don't recommend this
I’ve worn this for two swims and while the shape is really lovely and flattering the zip renders it practically unwearable. It doesn’t stay up at all which for the price is extra disappointing.

Great design and colour
Yes, I recommend this
Bought to replace my old M&S swimming costume. Great colour and zip design is practical and stays put on my daily swim. Cups add some shape and support. A great purchase.

Just What I Wanted!
Yes, I recommend this
I swim a lot & chose the costume specifically for the zip design at the front which makes it easy to get in & out of particularly at the beach. I am a 40C bust with a 39 inch waist & bought the size 16 which fits perfectly. Would love to see this in purple as well. It’s washed up really well too.

Lovely swimsuit but........
No, I don't recommend this
This is a gorgeous swim suit. As suggested I went a size up and it fitted beautifully. However as others have commented there is definitely a problem with the zip which has a mind of its own and doesn't stay up

Very striking
Yes, I recommend this
Very comfortable swimsuit, the front zip makes it easy to take off when wet, really pleased with my purchase

Zip doesn’t stay up
No, I don't recommend this
So this swimsuit is sized well and does fit in all other areas but I have a very large chest and the zip will not stay up at all, even when pulled all the way up. I have another swimsuit just like this from another company and don’t have that problem so I think it is a zip strength issue and not my chest. I’d say avoid if your chest is on the larger side (I’m a GG)
