Swimsuit

No, I don't recommend this

The pads were so huge I did not try it on. Women don't need padding or for their stomachs to be pulled in. Please sell a swimsuit I can swim in please.

ok but not great ...for me

Yes, I recommend this

liked the colour found the fit to be a bit on the small side could have done with it being a bit longer ..iam 5'7 and i am a size 12 bottom and 14 top i found the cups to be a bit small i would prefer the back to be lower

Lovely soft material

Yes, I recommend this

Which would be comfortable to wear. I ordered a 12 and 14 as sometimes I can take a 14 in a top depending on the style. I found even the larger size was tight in particular across the bust area. This resulted in unsightly bulges. I didn’t send for a 16 as the bottom half would have been too big. I’m resorting back to a tankini giving me more flexible sizing. It’s a pity as the costume is a beautiful shade of blue.

lovely swimsuit but not for travelling light

Yes, I recommend this

This is a beautiful swimsuit, where the ruching and twists make it a bit different from the standard stripes. However, what I needed was a simple swimsuit, very lightweight, no padding or lining or underwires etc, to be able to carry in a cabin bag. I don't spend the whole of my holiday next to the pool so it isn't the most important item of clothing I would take.

Really is flattering

Yes, I recommend this

As it says, this costume is super flattering. Looks great on and fits well. Colours are good too. I often go for darker colours so fingers crossed that this one stays bright and doesn't get stained eg by sunscreen. Looking forward to wearing it on my holidays.

Lovely coloured swimsuit

Yes, I recommend this

This is a lovely shade of blue and the stripes make a nice change from my usual florals. Had to go up a size to accommodate my chest comfortably. This would've been much nicer without the excess folds of fabric at the front, from the side it looked rather like maternity wear. Sometimes 'secret slimming' isn't that at all!

Yes, I recommend this

I really like the colour (which I wouldn’t describe as navy!). This was bought for my first beach holiday in years so I was delighted that it’s a very flattering style and comfortable to wear . Great value too .

Yes, I recommend this

The only thing I didn’t like was the rounded back. After trying on I prefer higher straight back.

Perfect

Yes, I recommend this

I’m not one for buying swimming costumes and was dreading trying to get one that fitted. I’d seen this on the website ages ago and it really took my eye. With the £5 offer I had to order it. Wow, I love it, I ordered a 14 and a 16 as I’d seen reviews saying it was small fitting. I tried the 16 first and it was perfect, it even manages to make me look slimmer! A really fresh nautical look, I love it.

Slimming swim suit

Yes, I recommend this

Totally agree with the other reviewers, buy a size up from your usual for a great fit. Definitely not navy but the royal blue as in the photo which I think is nicer anyway. Quite a plunging front, but not uncomfortably so. I would certainly buy another swimsuit in the same design although my new swimsuit and I haven't been for a dip together yet!

This swimsuit is a lovely colour and very flattering, I bought a size bigger as I’m quite big busted & it fit perfectly. Love it & not badly priced at all.

Love this style

Yes, I recommend this

This is the second costume I have bought this season from M&S. Unusually for me I have gone for a pattern both times. The reason is the bust line on these particular Secret Slimming swimsuits. I don’t have a bust so the curved outline across the chest is very flattering, as well as the costume holding my wobbly parts. I love how it looks. So rather than hide in solid black or navy I plunged into (horizontal) stripes and the other one is a bit like an Aztec pattern in blue. Confidence giving swimwear as far a I am concerned!!

Dissapointed

No, I don't recommend this

I was initially very happy with my swimming costume- it has a good fit and is supportive. After wearing the costume once, however, I was very dismayed to find that the material on the bum/ lower back had started to pull. This is not the level of quality I expect from Marks and Spencer and needless to say the costume will be returned.

Flattering and supportive

Yes, I recommend this

I swim every day and wanted something practical and supportive but not black. I had read the reviews so I ordered a size bigger than normal and I ordered the long length. I am 5ft 9in and a size 16 with G cup bust and the 18 long fitted perfectly. My previous costume was under wired with in built bra but this was almost as supportive. I am very impressed as much cheaper than previous too! Would love the green one but out of stock at the moment.
