- Tummy Control Swimwear Halter One Piece Slimming Vintage Retro Swimsuit Womens Ruched Push Up Bathing Suit

Let's be honest here--Okay? The Aging body (65 and over), for the average woman, can use a bit of...assistance. As a pro-ager at 65 years, rather than an anti-ager, it is my mission to present a positive and fun picture of the "senior" woman! I'm sick and tired of the "old lady" stereotype that is often coveyed. We do NOT wear swimsuits that have skirts that go past the thighs. (most of us anyway). We all don't have boulders that hit down to the waist (many of us). We want to dispel the offensive stereotype and get our body-positive clothing on--and that includes the item known as the Bathing Suit. Granted, many of us (I'm talking 'bout me here) have gained quite a few el-bees from stress eating during this pandemic. And many of us have acquired a thick mid-section due to menopause. However, it's no reason to give up on looking your best down the shore, at the lake, or pool or during your resort travels. Which brings me to this ridiculously flattering bathing suit! When I spotted this cutie advertised on a youthful and well-toned body, I thought, hmmm. Since it's advertized as "tummy slimming" perhaps this woman is really 35 pounds heavier and the swimsuit delivered on the tummy-slimmimg. In addition, the style was very chic and flattering. But--would it deliver? It did. I'm happy to report that this bathing suit is so wonderful on a good number of points. First of all, please order your regular size. IRL I'm an 8 and thanks to stress-eating I'm teetering on a 10. After mulling over the Medium or Large, I settled on the Medium. Remember, swimsuits expand when wet so you want to get as close a fit as you can. The fit? It's great. I'm just a tad under 5 feet 6 inches. My legs aren't the longest, but my torso IS long-waisted. This can cause an issue with the majority of one-piece bathing suits. Luckily, this swimsuit fits beautifully. I don't have to pull out the bottom from being wedged in between my ample cheeks AND I don't have to worry about severe camel-toe from the front of the suit riding up my origin of the world! The fit is absolutely wonderful. Does it hold in my belly? Yeah. It does--to a point. A bit of the gut still pops out, but for the most part, it sucks the bad bits in. This suit also comes with detachable soft cups. Let's talk about this for a moment. I'm a hard-cup, flotation device pads kinda woman. After years of breastfeeding and with age comes a bit of sagging. If you have the saggy girls, might I suggest investing in a pair of hard cups because they insert perfectly and give a more flattering and youthful silhoutte and hold those babies up to be at their perkiest! The rusching is also an added feature for slimming. And that neckline. Oh lord, how I love that squared-off neckline. I''ll tell you something else. My husband is Parisien. That means he believes himself to be an expert on women's fashion. (eyeroll) He usually gives the French Shrug to any one-piece I've worn but..when I exited out of the ocean in this, he gave his seal of approval and told me that this bathing suit is spectacular. So I'm gonna surprise him by treating myself to a second one that he can pay for! Look. I realize that it's July and this summer has almost passed us by . But due to circumstances beyond our control, there's still plenty of sun and swime time! But for the remaining days till the Fall, this is the only suit you will need. The comfort level is stellar, as is the fit and it is flattering to boot. And don't even get me started on the price. It's better in price AND quality than any of the garbage I've seen in department and specialty stores geared to the older woman or ANY woman . This is an excellent suit and I'm glad I ordered it. Thank you for reading this review and I hope you enjoyed it!

This is the best swimsuit I have ever owned. The colour is so pretty. I have had so many compliments on it. The neckline and pads allow even bigger chests to look amazing in it. Tummy support is great and has great lining. Doesn't get baggy at the pool or after washing. I loved it so much I bought it in the black and white polka dot and the royal blue. The royal blue is so pretty, however the black on the polka dot one was more of a charcoal when I tried it on. Returned the polka dot. Would by more colours.

I ordered size large based on the sizing chart and customer reviews. POSITIVES: It’s super cute, the material is nice, and it is slimming. It fits my stomach well and hides my mom belly. NEGATIVES: The torso part of the bathing suit is very short on me and I’m only 5’1”. The top of the back of the bathing suit cannot stretch as high as it’s supposed to. Amazon recommend this bathing suit for plus size women with a large chest and it definitely is not built for women with a large chest. I heard the stitching rip when I pulled it up over my ladies, and the breast area is small. It’s extremely tight on my chest and in order to get it to even hold my breasts up a little I had to tie it VERY tight around my neck and it’s not going to be very comfortable to wear. I had to smash and tuck my chest in to make it look halfway decent There is really no breast support other than tying it very tight. The padding for the breast area is really small and thin. There is a gap at the bottom in the back where my behind is. I love this suit but it just isn’t right for my body. We leave on vacation tomorrow and I don’t have time to return it so I am going to smash my girls in it and wear it, anyway. It doesn’t look horrible, it’s a cute suit. I would suggest if you have large breasts that you not get this suit. If I’d have ordered an x-large it would have been way too big for my entire body (excluding my breasts). For reference I’m 5’1”, 160lbs, DD In this picture I had already tucked as much of my chest in as I could. Update: this material does get snags and runs super easy, but most swimsuits don’t. I leaned on the side of the pool for maybe 30 mins and the fabric has pills and snags all over it.

Wife loved it, fit was excellent and quality product,

My favorite swimsuit so far. Very flattering with tummy control. I feel comfortable in this without the constant fixing to ensure it’s in place.

No tummy control and no bust support. Cute, if you don’t need any of that.

I absolutely LOVE this bathing suit. The pattern is lovely (blue yellow floral) and looks very upscale and luxurious. The material is very nice. The ruching is very nice and hits in all the right places. I have a little apron belly i can’t seem to lose, and the ruching camouflages it nicely. I love how the straps tie so that i the sun, i can untie them and not get tan lines on my shoulders. It hits nicely on the chest too (not too high but not too low). I also like how it sits on my hips. This is a gorgeous bathing suit and I have already ordered another (floral red). The support is really nice; it holds me in great. I haven’t washed it yet but will definitely be at drying it to last as long as possible. I haven’t bought a new bathing suit in 15 years so treated myself to two. I’m so excited!! I’m 5’2” and weigh 130 lbs.

It's well-made and fit well. I loved the look, stunning orange color. The halter straps were easier for me to adjust than those like your bra straps. It just ties in the back. The lining is sufficient. I had to chose between two different suits but this was the one for me. Sexy and fun, even for a 60 yr old, without being to girlish.
