Just right
Yes, I recommend this
As I am a 'mature lady' I did not want anything too revealing. The costume looks very feminine, nice fit, looks good on. Can't wait to wear it next time I go swimming

Best costume I’ve had in years
Yes, I recommend this
I swim Monday to Friday, a mile a day in my local pool, and also in my local river a few times and in the summer -picnics etc. Need a practical costume that will last well in chlorinated water, and also modest as I’m self-conscious of a large surgery scar at pelvis and onto top of one thigh. Lovely rich blue colour, the frills make it fun (and cover my scar) fits well. I did put in a few stitches in the bra area to not make it quite so plunging, but that’s just me. Bought one, loved it, bought two more to keep ‘in stock’ as I’m so chuffed with this style. Thankyou M&S, winner!

No, I don't recommend this
The body of this swimsuit was a fairly good fit but the top was not - it was so low and baggy that my assets almost fell out when I bent over. Very disappointing! Had to be returned.

New swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
Very plain, but flattering and comfortable. I wasn't entirely sure about the skirt, but there is something strangely nostalgic and feminine about it. I shall feel very happy and appropriate running round on the beach this lovely summer, with my grandchildren. Looks good with a floaty flimsy tee shirt or vest over the top.

Retro Diva - love it !
Yes, I recommend this
I was a little hesitant as being ‘a little larger than I would like’ I don’t generally like any swimming costumes, however this one is different. It fit my Curvy size 16 well, slimmed the important areas and made me feel good. Well done M&S, is it aimed at older ladies... I don’t know but certainly made me feel ready for my holidays !!

Fantastic swimsuit
Yes, I recommend this
It’s 25+ years since I’ve worn a swimsuit having never found one to ‘hide’ the extra pounds around my middle. This swimsuit is perfect. The skirt is flattering and gives a modest yet stylish look. I would have bought this in another colour too if I could.

Disappointed
No, I don't recommend this
Very disappointed with this swimsuit the skirt many as well not be there as it is just a small odd piece of material attached and doesn’t cover like a normal swimdress definitely not worth the money

A very flattering suit that fits true to size. Skirt is a good length and the colour is very nice. I would buy again if it was available in a wider range of colours!

Flattering and feminine
Yes, I recommend this
Taking the advice of previous reviewers, I bought a size bigger than normal and it fitted perfectly. The tummy panel and padding were very flattering. The skirt came longer than shown on the model (I'm above average height) without looking frumpy. The neckline was a little too low for swimming and I returned it in favour of another swimsuit from M&S that had a higher neckline. However, I'm sure it would look lovely worn on the beach and perhaps a brighter colour would enhance it a little.

Poor quality

good buy
Yes, I recommend this
Very pleased with the item. Reading some reviews I ordered a 16 & 18. The size 16 ( my normal size) fitted well. Nice colour and suitable for older women.

Look slim
Yes, I recommend this
As other reviewers mentioned, it’s better to get one size bigger size than usual one. I am size 10 but I bought 12 , it fits perfectly. For the length of the skirt was fine by me, as i prefer to wear skirt style. In terms of practical view, it might not be ideal for those who want to swim intensively in the pool, I would say it might be ok to wear this at the beach or pool to play with kids ...
