We’re lucky to have another post from Donna this week! I’m so grateful that she’s tried such a variety of suits and been willing to write about them for Hourglassy. (Note: Donna purchased this swimsuit herself, and all opinions are her own. Purchases made through the Amazon link in this post may result in commissions to Hourglassy.)

When I first spotted this suit on my quest for the perfect tankini I was smitten but never thought it would work for me. Strapless swim suit?!! I can’t even find a strapless bra let alone swimwear.

I first tried my normal panache swim size, 32G. I normally wear a 30G bra but I find swim runs tighter for me and I need the room for my 50ish belly. I could barely get in on. I literally broke a sweat trying to put this on. No joke. After what seemed like a half hour the suit was on and adjusted and looked pretty good. A bit snug, but probably how it was meant to fit. The bra top of the suit looked amazing and convinced me to play around with sizes. No way could I deal with that struggle to get it on especially since I suffer with Rheumatoid Arthritis in my hands.

I exchanged it for a 34G. I definitely needed the torso room and felt I could use a bit more room in the bust. What a difference. So much easier to put on. No struggle, no wiggle dance to lift it up (I step into the tankinis, fasten in the front, then turn it around). It is so incredibly comfortable . More so than any strapless bra I have ever attempted to buy. Never had to fiddle or pull it up. In retrospect a 34FF would probably have been a better fit as the cups are slightly too big. No one but myself would ever notice it. I didn’t realize until after I had worn it.

Adjustable straps can be worn different ways

A major complaint with this and most of the tankinis I have tried is the hidden bra fastener. I find them extremely difficult to put on. Anyone else? I wish they would have the fasteners that bikini tops have-the click clasp or the the clasp with the loop. It could be wider like the bra type, but just not the 2 hook style closure. How about a band that works like a strap adjustment or multiple loops like some bikinis have for more adjustability? Would be infinitely easier.

This type of clasp design much easier(Freya Sundance).
or use hooks like this with multiple loops for adjustability,just wider for more support

Once it’s on, this tankini looks great and more importantly, is super comfortable. I totally recommend!
