Secret Slimming™ Lace-Up Printed Swimsuit

Not easy to find a suitable costume to swim in as well, too old and large for anything too low cut. This one fits the bill and the pattern is satisfactory shapewise.

Liked the look of this costume online and having read a lot of positive reviews decided to order it. The pattern is attractive and quite slimming. Unfortunately I found that I was constantly pulling the costume down at the sides as it kept riding up so have returned it as i know it would annoy me too much. I’m a size 14 so did consider going up a size to see if that would make any difference but as yet haven’t got round to reordering it!

I;m a size 18 and found the swimsuit a perfect fit. It smooths out my flabby bits and the placing of the flowers gives a fair impression of a slimmer waist. The only grumble I have is that I had to give up on changing the position of the straps - it was just too hard to unhook them. Overall though a really nice product.

I am a 14 bottom, 16 top and a load of wobble in-between! Tried on loads of swimsuits and this one suited me the best. The flowers on the side take the eye away from the tummy. The cross over straps make it feel very secure, no straps falling down my arms. Enough cleavage to feel womanly but not everything on show. Felt really nice and looking forward to wearing it on the beach!

Lovely details, elegant and flattering.

Patten at sides makes you look much slimmer! Built in support is a bonus too! Only negative is cross over straps at back - not pretty or practical. Normal straps would make this swimsuit one to beat! M&S - PLEASE review this.

This costume is stunning on. I’m a size 20/22 and had to buy a 22... Even on a larger frame it looks stunning and very flattering. Smooths over the lumpy bellies and really enhances the pair I’ve still got going for me. The pattern sides give a slimmer illusion. I will have to wear this crossed backed straps as my shoulders slope and in the cross gives your bust a better enhance. Looking forward to wearing this reading a book in the hot sun this summer. I’m off to buy another..... I do find it and the expensive side but hubby says worth it if.

Love this swimsuit, and went on to buy the matching dress ! It makes my size 12 figure look lovely. I DID have to buy a size 14 , I always have to as the stretch in them makes them come smaller . But I’m pleased with the look of it and love the flowers on it !

my bikini days are finally gone but this swimsuit (and 3 others from M&S) are fabulous. They hold everything up (34G's, I bought a size 14)) and in the right place. Doesn't flatten stomach but that's OK because it smooths out tummy area and has a really good illusion effect with the flowers down the side. I've not actually swum in them yet, but the fabric feels lovely and like it's not going to "bag" when wet.

I ordered this when I saw it on line as I thought it was so pretty and the style is gorgeous. It is very flattering on and I cannot wait to wear it when I go on my holidays later in the year, I do swim regularly in a local pool during the week but this costume is much too nice to wear there and I don't want it to be damaged by the chlorine in the pool. Definitely a holiday swimsuit and I highly recommend it.

Closed this swimsuit. The style is very flTtering for the fuller figure.

I like the cross over straps at the back. Love the flowers on the side - just enough not over the top. Looking forward to wearing it on my holiday.

Lovely swimsuit, very flattering style, pattern placement very slimming, fabric quality good. Really like the lower back, wish M&S would do more swimsuits like this. Bought during sparks 20% discount weekend which made it a better price.

I ordered this lace-up swimsuit despite it being a lot more than I usually pay as costumes only last one summer holiday despite following all required care regimes. I also ordered the other swimming costume in this lovely range. Both fit well and are true to size on me. After much agonizing I decided to keep this more expensive one as the styling is really flattering especially at the front from the cups up to shoulders. M&S seems stuck in a rut in making most of their costumes low-cut, bandeau or ruched with wide-apart straps which do not flatter those with a smaller chest. For ladies like me who are not well-endowed the style of this costume from the bust to shoulder is perfect and hides any lack of bust. The lace-up front is no problem as it can be laced tightly. Please M&S more in this style and without the lacing and definitely halter-necks which are the most flattering for a small bust.
