Longer length swimming costume

Yes, I recommend this

This is a lovely costume. Great to have it in longer length as standard is never long enough in body for me. Beautiful colour. Wish it came in other colours, would have bought another one. Agree with other reviews, the strap across back with clasp isnt long enough, so i bought next size up & it fitted nicely. Hope M & S make more in this design with the clasp, hopefully with a longer strap and in longer length.

Short in the body

Yes, I recommend this

I am a size 12 regular but found this (and another one I tried from M and S) quite short in the body and in the end went for 14 Long. As I am only 5ft 4in this is the first time in my life I have ever bought anything ‘Long’!! Other than that it looks nice on and was great on the beach

Exact same problem as others....

No, I don't recommend this

A lovely supportive swimsuit but the strap across the back is ridiculously short. Had to be returned so couldn't give any more than 1 star

bandeau costume

No, I don't recommend this

I have had a lot of bandeau costumes from M&S but this one was awful. I bought 2 sizes having read other reviews but it was still too tight and showed all the cheeke and was cut very low. Also the clasp across the top was very brassy and heavy and would probably get very hot if worn to sunbathe done up. Not a good style for me. The colour is great and would be lovely in the normal style of bandeau.

Beautiful swimsuit but had to return

No, I don't recommend this

The fastener at the back was so fiddly that I decided to return. So disappointed as it fit beautifully and such a bargain with 50% off. Such a shame

Straps far too tight

No, I don't recommend this

I loved the look of this costume and the fact that it came in long was a real bonus as a lot of M&S costumes come up short in the body ( and I'm not a tall person at 5ft 4in). I ordered a size 14 long and the material and style were lovely. However the straps across the back of the bra section were, in my opinion, far too short. It made it a real struggle to do up, and when I did eventually manage ( if you are a ' do your bra up at the front and then swivel person, like me, you may be in real trouble with this costumn), it was so tight. Also the view from behind where it literally squashed all the skin on my back together was less than flattering! I am a 36B bust and therefore surely the size 14 should have fitted me? Unfortunately returned, which was disappointing. Another inch or so in each strap would have made a world of difference. Probably okay if you are very slim and toned, but for the 'normal woman' out there you may struggle to do it up and make sure you check the view from the back afterwards!!!! A massive tick for material, style and body lenth, but a no-no for fitting round the bust/back.

Lovely but disappointing

No, I don't recommend this

Really well made , lovely colour , gold coloured fastenings and great style. Ordered the longer body length in size 16. The costume had a bra back fastening and could even get the two ends to meet . My sister who is size 14 tried it and although she could just fasten it , it was very tight. Very disappointing as was a lovely bathing costume. Sizing terrible

Long but tight swimsuit

No, I don't recommend this

I bought 2 swimming costumes from M&S. This is a lovely colour and style but the swimsuit came up very tight around the back. I’m a 10-12 and this was a 12. I couldn’t Even do it up at the back! Held this costume against the other type I bought and the back was inches smaller than the other size 12 costume! Really disappointing. Will be returning due to fit.

Great Colour and Style

Yes, I recommend this

I love this swimsuit. Expensive looking. (especially as got at reduce price for £14.50 - unbelievable) It does come up tight though across the back as the strap ('bra strap) is tight - which is good in that it holds you well. I ordered in a 14 which should have been perfect, but had to go up to a 16 because of this strap at the back pinching my flesh and not looking attractive at the back. The 16 was ok too though and not too big. It has padding in the cups which you can remove and it is still really supportive. I have not swum in it so cannot comment from that viewpoint.

Good fit, nice colour

Yes, I recommend this

I bought the longer version of this s/suit and it fitted well. I find the back strap a little tight, hopefully this will ease off a bit through wear. The costume offers good support and has the right amount of Lycra for shape. I would have given it 100% if the back support has fitted better. Although I said it was Durable and retained colour, I cannot confirm this as I have not worn it outside as yet.

No, I don't recommend this

Good quality but small made compared to the costumes I have bought in previous years from M&S. Quality is good but I suggest you go up a size if you order. Mind you might be okay if you are smaller in the bust.

Very flattering, lovely strong blue colour

Yes, I recommend this

I ordered this as it's a similar style but different colour/design to one bought last summer which I absolutely love. I've not worn or washed this one yet but M&S swimsuits usually wash well. Very flattering style & supports a large bust, including without the straps. Even better this was in the sale.
