Poor fit
No, I don't recommend this
I buy most of my costumes from M and S however this particular costume does not fir around the bust. If you bend forward it falls forward and is very revealing. I have returned it.

Not for me !
No, I don't recommend this
Unfortunately although I ordered this swimsuit in two different sizes neither fitted. The swimsuit looked lovely until I put it on, it looked awful. The rushed bandeau effect did nothing. Fortunately I also another swimsuit In a different style which was perfect. Sorry M&S, this swimsuit did not flatter my size 12/14 figure !

Not extra long
No, I don't recommend this
Item returned, I should have taken note of previous reviews. This is definitely NOT extra long and the straps dug into my shoulders when I tried it on. There are few companies who cater for those of us who need the extra length in the body, and I usually get my swimming costumes from M&S, but I wish they did more styles in the extra length. The only other one available had a plunge neckline, and I'm a bit too long in the tooth for that! M&S - PLEASE stop describing this costume as an extra long one - I compared it with one of my other costumes from you and it is several inches shorter in the body!

Longer length swimsuit
No, I don't recommend this
The swimsuit is a lot smaller than a previous size 12 M&S one (a plunge neck style which I still wear). I wouldn't have considered it to be 'longer length' either, I have to have the straps fully extended in order to wear it comfortably, which is not usually necessary in longer length versions.

Lovely swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
I'm 5ft7 and usually a size 12-14 dress size. This swimsuit fitted perfectly for my shape. I'm glad I chose the longer length however I can see that person 5ft9 would not be happy with the length. The straps are at full length for me so there isn't much give here and the bra top is slightly padded...I'm a 34c. It is a lovely swimsuit really it is. I found this comfortable and flattering. Very happy customer!

Wrong size
Yes, I recommend this
I have bought 6 or 7 of these swimsuits as they have been great BUT the latest one, although the label showed size 14 it was in fact about a size 8 or 10. As I live in Australia I would have had to spend money on postage sending it back so I gave it to a friend who is a size 8 and it fits her perfectly I swim all year at the beach and love these bathers and was very disappointed with this one. At the same time I bought a purple one size 14 and it fitted perfectly. I am only giving it 3 star because all the others were good.

Longer body swimsuit
No, I don't recommend this
I was very disappointed with my longer length swimsuit which I purchased online as the fit just seemed to be the same as normal length swimsuits so had to return purchase. At one time M & S did a few longer length swimsuits, but sadly this is no longer the case.

Useful swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
This is a light but well structured swimsuit. It is useful for twice a week swims at the pool but not what I would call glamorous. I would have preferred a scooped back but the back is quite high. However, apart from this am pleased with purchase.

Favourite costume
Yes, I recommend this
Love this costume - it's comfortable and very flattering. Not had long to comment on how it copes with chlorine from the pool, but I love it.

Not very long
No, I don't recommend this
Too small in cup size, not very long, thin shiny fabric

Classic and modest but still pretty
Yes, I recommend this
Just the right balance of being modest and simple without appearing boring or unfeminine. Be warned that the fit across the bust is slightly on the small side, fine for me but a large bust may feel a little squashed. I am so pleased to find this longer length option because I find body length a real problem in most swimsuits.

BASIC SWIMSUIT
Yes, I recommend this
If you want a proper swimsuit and not just for sunbathing this is good, not to low cut. It is sold as 'longer length' which my daughter requires. According to her it is not as good a fit as previous ones bought from on M&S. It is so hard to try and longer length swimsuits. Would I recommend it well yes for the reason stated.

No, I don't recommend this
I am only a size 10 normally but having tried a normal size 12 which was too short in body length I decided to try the longer length version . This was also too tight and short in body .

No, I don't recommend this
This fits well around the tummy and back and is confortable in this area, however it is not confortable near my under arms (front) and has felt me with red soreness also it does not fit well around the bust.Write your review here (at least 25 characters)
