Review on ๐Ÿ‘™ Classic Charm: Esther Williams Women's 50's Pin Up Swimsuit for Effortless Elegance by Tracy Gordon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

If it fits, great!

The Esther Williams pin up swimsuit is beautifully closed (in most cases) yet sexy swimwear. I tried it in a solid black and it looked beautiful. Although I liked it very much, unfortunately I had to send it back, I had no choice. First off, I'm 5ft 4" and weigh about 145 pounds, most of which is on my stomach (oh help!). It wasn't a problem for me because I only used it as a build. It held the tummy securely but didn't feel tight at all, personally I could have used a little more but that was ok. My back was fully covered and I have boobs and it didn't go too high on my leg line it was perfect! In fact there was additional material in the front which could be raised or lowered depending on preference I thought I'm in my 40's, so i like it, but i've always been humble even when i was skinny. The problem with the suit is that I have a bra size 38D which is not very big but the cups are a 14. which I've tried (and I'm usually a 14 in all swimsuits including miracle suits (my skirts have Size 14 and my tops are usually L which means 10-12) and I've tried a lot, thanks U Amazons! ) - these are padded elastic pitted bottoms for cup size B or maybe C but no bigger IF you want that it fits snugly around your chest. If you don't mind bending down and putting on a little show then go ahead, it's technically "wearable" but for me I didn't feel the support and security I wanted and needed so I could don't hold me Everything was exposed when I bent over, plus a bit of cleavage when I stood up. I found it too small for my bust size. The straps were good enough though, I've tried a few suits where the straps are too short and don't feel as strong. So like I said I think this is a really nice swimsuit but not for my body type.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
