Nice costume but....
No, I don't recommend this
Ordered on line and as usual service excellent but can't say the same for this swim suit. The size was slightly on the big size but wasn't a problem because I could have dropped a size, it was the fit around the bust that was the problem. Firstly the inserted cups were flimsy and didn't give any structure, anyone that has a bigger bust will not find this costume strong enough to give any shape. Very disappointed as this is the third costume I have tried and have had the same problem with all.

More support needed for fuller bust
Yes, I recommend this
Lovely pattern and colour which compliments my skin tone, just felt there should be more bust support on the bigger sizes. When worn strapless the support isn't great but when you use the strap, it helps a bit but not enough.

M&S COLLECTION Secret Slimming™ Animal Print Swims
Yes, I recommend this
Nice looking swimsuit, however a bit on the small side. Not very slimming considering secret slimming - shows all lumps and bumps. Lovely pattern and have been told it looks really nice on. Quick drying material.

Not for me
Yes, I recommend this
Looked like a lovely style of swimsuit and loved the idea of a 'strapless' option for sunbathing but this style just didn't feel that great on and so I returned it. I liked the pattern on the fabric. Ordered 2 sizes but the 14 was more or less true to fit. However, I couldn't really tell that it had secret slimming included. Not for me but might suit someone else better

Had to return
No, I don't recommend this
Loved the colour and pattern but the the strap around neck was too short. Really tight around back of my neck, and I'm not partic tall at 5ft 7in. My current Secret Slimming swimsuit has long straps that can be tied to suit -- far better idea for mass-market retailer serving customers of all shapes and sizes. Also, stiffeners either side of bandeau were uncomfortable, with irritating edges.

Swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
I love the pattern and the style. But I am a definite size 12 sometimes able to get into. 10 but had to take this back and buy a size 14. Very smally made. Whoever decided on the sizing of this item got it completely wrong.

Such a shame!
No, I don't recommend this
The pattern and the colour were perfect but the material was a little thin and the shape did not suite me (size 14) maybe a smaller size would look lovely like in the model!

I agree with the previous review.....
No, I don't recommend this
The quality of the cutting and stitching around the bust is appalling. No way would it stay up without using the strap. The padding arrived folded and if it doesn't lie flat for transit there's not much hope for a bit of activity! Pity it has to be returned as the matching beach dress is lovely.

Loved this in the past
No, I don't recommend this
Poorly made around the top seam at centre bust does not lie flat attempt at sweetheart should have been better Otherwise fabric and fit is excellent might just be me but tried two different sizes and they both gaped at centre of the bust line

What a pity!!
No, I don't recommend this
Disappointed with the material used for this cozzy. More like a leotard. Only suitable for a much younger lady with a beautiful figure. Had to return for a refund I'm afraid.

Different sizing on this swimsuit
No, I don't recommend this
I have bought this style before, as it is useful for sunbathing as well as swimming, and is inexpensive (as chlorine attacks all suits, including expensive ones). I used to size up to a 14 but the shape of this model is different, and bigger round the chest. I don't know why M&S doesn't focus on sizing consistency as the cost of returns must be significant........
