Collective Padded Halterneck Bandeau Bikini Top

Broke my heart to pay this much for a bikini top and was almost hoping it wouldn’t suit! But you get what you pay for and this was worth it - well made, a great fit and very flattering.

This was an expensive purchase. £115 for top and bottoms. I’m a large size 10/ a small 12. I wanted the size 12? but they only had a top that size and the bottoms were 14. Ordered and the bottoms only just fitted! As there were no 12’s in the top I found ( slightly cheaper!) my size on another site so bought them and returned the original top to M & S. My point is they are not true to size but quite small. It is a lovely quality bikini but slightly too much fuss and material on the bikini top although it’s lovely bright white and impressive otherwise.

I’ve been trying to order one of Seafollys blue bikinis for a while but the sizes weren’t availability. I finally managed to get hold of a 12 in this top but unfortunately it was too small. For info I’m an M&S size 10 and a 36D. I then ordered a 14 and the wires on the bikini were still touching my breast which I know they shouldn’t after my bra fit at M&S. What a huge shame these bikini tops don’t come in cup sizes which for the price I think they should.

Very up to date style and flattering to a small chest Good quality material although not washed yet
