Product code: T523200

About this style

A figure-enhancing swimsuit is a summer must-have. Cleverly designed ruching gives an all-round flattering fit. This innovative ultra-light microfiber fabric promises to offer as much control as the traditionally heavy shapewear fabrics, making Secret Slimming™ products as supportive but much comfier.

Just a fabulous swimming costume. Comfortable, supportive and very flattering. Nice 50s vibe with a modern twist. True to size.

Black Swimsuit

No, I don't recommend this

The V cut of the top is quite low and I found the cup shaping very uncomfortable. Not a flattering cleavage at all on me! Sent it back.

Short fit

No, I don't recommend this

I usually get on pretty well with M&S sizing but both this suit and another similar that I bought fit quite short in the body. Also the cut of the leg area could have been higher so as to be more flattering.

Summer Essential

Yes, I recommend this

Great black swimsuit. Goes with any colour sarong, hat, footwear etc. It fits beautifully and gives you a lovely shape. I ordered both a size 14 (my usual size) and a size 16, after reading some reviews however, the 14 was fine. The secret support is comfortable to wear and makes you feel very confident.

Practical and attractive black swimsuit

Yes, I recommend this

This is a great swimsuit, similar to one I purchased a year or two ago in turquoise. Quite low cut but good fit around the bust without major padding and comfortable ruching over the tummy - altogether figure-enhancing but a practical choice for regular swim sessions!

fabulous cleavage

Yes, I recommend this

I was delighted with the fit and pleasantly surprised as I would not normally buy a costume like this with such padded cups, but they really do the job and give me support plus a great cleavage. Will be super for holidays. At my age with a large bosum it is difficult to get it right and I normally pay a lot more for this quality of swimwear so well done M&S! I liked it so much I bought the tankini and its fabulous!.

Lovely swimsuit

Yes, I recommend this

I ordered this swimsuit, with tummy control, along with another for choice and size. I wasn't sure if a 14 or 16 would fit. This was a lovely swimsuit with a v-neck and ruching down the front. Unfortunately it was too big for me so had return it, but the other one fitted perfectly. The price was just under £30 and that is a good price for a tummy control swimsuit.

Yes, I recommend this

As yet this swimsuit has not been put through it's paces in the pool, but it fits well and is of excellent quality. I am confident having bought similar swimsuits in the past, this will be equally as good.

Lovely swimsuit

Yes, I recommend this

I found this swimsuit on-line which was just what I was looking for, and had it delivered to my local M&S. I am really pleased with the style and fit of the suit, I have not used in the pool yet so cannot comment on performance.

Really nice swimsuit, good material, and fits well although the bust line is a bit lower than I normally wear but that hasn't put me off. Very comfortable.

Low cut

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this as a replacement for my previous costume of a similar design that had given up the ghost. It appeared the same on screen, but on trying it on, I discovered it's very plunging at the front exposing lots of cleavage. This is no problem for sunbathing, but I realised that when water catches the inside of the bra cup, it balloons out and comes away a bit. I am already concerned what will happen once it gets looser with use...!
