This top is ideal for anyone who is busty enough to end up with a sore neck at the end of a day spent at the beach in a halter or tied-at-the-neck bikini top. The completely adjustable crossed straps provide a custom fit and distribute the weight of the breasts evenly.This solves another problem I've encountered when wearing racerback sports tops - most are cut too deeply for me and there's no way to shorten the shoulder height. For all their sturdy construction, they don't support the way they should if they are sitting too low.I've read reviews of other customers who thought the cups were too small and that this top didn't support as well as they had expected. My take on that is that it really depends on how you're built. All DD's are not created equally.If you have a width issue (38" bra band or more, broader back) rather than a depth issue, you won't be happy because these cups are round and full but not wide. Although the straps are totally adjustable, the underwire cup construction aims for 32-36 DD (small chest and back width but "all breasts" in front). If you are popping out the sides or getting a twin muffin-top, you'll neither be comfortable nor supported properly.I'm about a size 10 Petite (I'm short and that's why my straps are always too long) but I take a 36DD or 36DDD, depending on the design of the bra. I'm an ex-surfer who still has a lot of muscle, but I'm 50 and I've nursed a kid, so we're not talking Barbie boobies, here. I'm 100% natural and I've been doing battle with the force of gravity since I was 10. When I run, I have to wear two layers of support garments to prevent injury.This top is designed to provide more support with less material than most and you'll be able to hang out without hanging out if you're walking, surfing or swimming, but it's a sexy fashion top. It's functional and comfortable, but it's not a "sports" bra. Unless you've got implants that stay up on their own like helium-filled parade balloons, you'll have to layer a compression tank or sports bra over it to engage in strenuous activities like running or volleyball.
Great fit and perfect in every way. I am loving this top.
I have always had trouble finding a swim top that provides the support I need. This top provides the support I have been looking for. It fits good and looks great on. I thought it was a little pricey but in the end I am happy with the purchase. Shipping was fast so thats also a plus. Overall great buy wouldnt change a thing.
there is no support in the cups of this suit. may have worked with pads, to give you that boost.
Love the fit and the coverage. They feel secure without gouging my neck. I bought 3 of them and only one felt uncomfortable in the middle where the underwires were poking me.
I don't feel like I'm going to fall out of it, and I'm not constantly tugging on it to keep things in place. I do wish it had some sort of liner, because it does show your nipples well when you're chilly. All in all , though, I'm very happy I bought it
I purchased the same bathing suit in a design fabric at a dept store in town. The top was so comfortable I decided to find another suit but couldn't find the same thing in town. I found this one on line and couldn't be happier. Love it. (even $35 less in price)
i love the way the top looks but i ordered a DD and it doesnt fit like one it is still to small and i know thats what size i wear, but other then that it was good. i also just think the price for the top could have been a little bit cheaper.
Great top for swimming because of the criss cross back.
I'm very pleased with the product, I have never had a swim suite that fit so well. The only suggestion I have is to make the suite available in patterns as well. Thanks!
