Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Slimming Swimwear Clasp Halter Dress Print

I was delighted with this swimsuit! The color is beautiful, and the fit is very flattering. Some other reviewers complained of the halter clasp being uncomfortable....I didn't have that problem at all. I received many compliments. At 65+, I wanted a suit with a little coverage of upper thighs, and a bit of "tummy disguise".....this was perfect! I'm quite satisfied!

Love this suit. Having the underwire cup choices made it a perfect selection. Wish the black one had the same choices. Very flattering suit - lots of compliments. Age 61

This bathing suit is terrific. It is sturdy, well-made, very comfortable and I feel super cute in it.

This is my third swimsuit in this style from LL Bean. This is a high quality swimsuit that provides tummy control and covers your hips. I love the neckline and halter top. The bra is supportive enough and the halter strap is adjustable. I live in Florida, so my swimsuits get a lot of use. This style is perfect!

Beautiful print, perfect style for me. Okay to wear to a public pool or to the beach. Wish the skirt wouldn't float up while standing in the pool, but very comfortable to wear swimming. My favorite suit now.

I highly recommend this suit, especially for women with builds like mine.

This is my favorite suit. I love the color, and the short dress is a great way to feel relaxed while I move around. If I could recommend any improvement I would prefer to have some kind of extra support for the halter portion of this garment. D cups are roomy enough to cover me up, but the halter digs in to my neck a little. A inner lining that is made of spandex material to compress would be ideal.

I have been trying to find a swimsuit that covers my um, Girls. I am a 40D and I have tried so many suits from so many places and they all seemed to run so small on the top , especially the side-boob thing. Even ones that say they are D or even DD. I bought this suit and wow, the top fits and nothing hanging out the sides! I cannot say that the suit minimizes my middle but that is not the suit's fault - fabric can only do so much! Overall, the suit is great, I do wish my middle was more camouflaged, but hey, can't have everything and the fit of the top has satisfied me. I bought the size 18.

I absolutely love this swimsuit. It makes my plump body look not so plump! I want more colors so I can buy a second one.

Fits true to size. I wasn't sure about the style (halter top) was glad I tried it! It is even nicer than pictured!

I am 59, 5'6",150 lbs. and a little larger around the middle than I used to be! This is the most flattering bathing suit I have ever owned. I came back for the solid black, but the size 10 (size I purchased in blue) is sold out. In addition to flattering, this suit is also incredibly comfortable!! Don't hesitate! Please bring back in new colors next year!

It was time to turn in the 2 piece but with a long torso it's hard to find a suit that fits AND one that is flattering (and not matronly!) - boy does this suit hit the mark. Was thrilled to find a suit in "long" (thank you LL BEAN!) It has a very athletic fit to it - you could play beach volleyball in it very securely, yet it is so pretty it's also perfect for an evening cocktail cruise. Very well made. It does run small....I am 5'9 120 and bought size 8 - not too small but borderline and very snug. I have received many compliments on it

Love this suit! Fits very well, I especially like the coverage (there is no "side boob" problem). The skirt is not too long so doesn't feel like I'm wearing an old lady suit. And it really is slimming. I am 5'7", 150 lb, 60 year old, and I tried a size 10 and 12. Both fit well but ended up keeping the size 10.

I love this swimsuit! It is quality made and the fit is perfect. The adjustable neck strap is great for bust uplift. The colors are vibrant. I have nothing negative to say.

Even though the size is too small to be really comfortable (I did that because I'm getting married soon and have to lose a little more weight) it fits well enough and really makes me look thinner. It's so pretty I love it.

Llbean suites are worth the money. They stand up to salt water, chlorine and sunshine.

I ordered a size 10 and returned it to my local LL Bean- they helped me get it sent to my house. They are always so helpful! The size 12 is perfect!

I have been avoiding beach trips solely because I didn't feel good in bathing suits. Just got this one and it is SO well made and flattering. Perfect for hiding any insecurities in the mid-region, and offers lots of coverage in the bottom. I wear about a size 8 in pants, and a 34C. I'm a bit smaller on top than bottom. I ordered the 8 reluctantly based on reviews, but it fits exactly as I hoped. I was expecting issues with the halter strap based on other feedback as well, and actually tightened the strap once I tried it on. I have a long torso, and did fine with the Regular. I can see how the top might not be tailored for larger chests, and would size up just for that if on the fence. With that said, I think this suit would truly look excellent on most body types. I'm going to buy the black as well!!

Rave reviews on this suit. After a weekend of non stop wear including beach, boats and kayaking i went online to order the same suit in a second color (navy was my first pick, i opted not to go with the black fyi, but would have ordered almost any other option). I ordered a 12 and 14 and opted to keep them both. The 14 was a custom fit to my top, and the 12 was the best bottom fit. My frame is an active 5' 3" and 150 (much of that up top as they say) D cup is a nice fit, an attractive AND well supported cut with attention to quality in the seams, darts, etc. skirt length is modest in a good way (translate, no worries about coverage when active or reaching into a cooler but still fun and fashionable. I tried dozens of suits from Marshall's, Kohl's, Title Nine and LL Bean mix and match tops and bottoms. When finding 'the right' suit, for a flattering, comfortable, tugless summer option the value in this fit and ll bean quality justified the price.

This swimsuit is perfect for my body type. I tend to gain weight in my belly and this design hides it well. The top part offers great support and the overall fit makes me feel confident and care free. I'm a 36C and the size 8 fits perfect.

Although I haven't worn this suit in the water, the fit seems great. I like the long length. I usually have to pull and tug to keep the suit from creeping up. This one I don't think will have that problem. Thanks LL Bean for making a longer length in an attractive style!!

It is a two piece suit that is easy to put on and very comfortable and shaping.

This suit fits well and the description is accurate.

Nice fabric and true to size. This swimsuit is lightly padded with no underwire. I would have preferred a little more support but otherwise, great swimsuit.

Lovely print and very nice "skirt" length. Unfortunately the halter neck was uncomfortable and the back was cut a little too low for my body. 5"7" 120 lbs
