    Comments about Boden Women Vintage Swimsuit:

    Bought your retro swimsuit last year and found it flattering and held its shape, so thought I would try another one. I was not disappointed . Swimsuit fits perfectly and does not look frumpish which I was concerned it might be with the flowers. Definitely a winner!

        Comments about Boden Women Vintage Swimsuit:

        The fabric is lovely and it is very well made, as suggested I sized up for a slightly looser fit. The body length is a bit short, would have preferred another couple of inches and the lining at the top of the cups did tend to show when I tried it on. However with a bit of manoevering got it right and just hope this won't be a problem when I wear it, I would have liked a bit more structure to the cups. Perhaps giving it a 3 is a bit unfair as it is certainly better than average, but 3½ wasn't an option!

              beautiful and very flattering. i particularly liked the pleated cups because they gave the illusion of fullness and lift, (after 2 children, things aren't what they were). i would have liked a bit of structure between the cups to stop it moving away from the breast bone when you bend fore ward, but it's only a tiny niggle. i didn't find it too short in the body. i'm not tall, but i have a long body for my height.

                Oh my, what a fabulous swimsuit. I had baby twins 9 months ago and although back in reasonable shape I needed something to hold my tummy together a little! This has a great snug fit on the front and really helped with my after-breastfeeding breasts too! Would highly recommend it for anyone needing a little pull-me-in and help me out!!

                  Really loved the look of this swim suit, tried the 12 which was too short in the body, even with it's boy leg cut it was still riding up. I'm a 12 in most Boden but I have a 14 bottom and 34D bust.
                  The 14 was perfect length and cup size was good, but the top had a too wide & deep V between the cups...tended to separate without the lift....not the support some of us need these days!
                  Sooo disappointed as I adore this material.

                  Comments about Boden Women Vintage Swimsuit:

                  I loved the idea of this swimsuit, the colour and style were just what I was looking for, after reading other reviews I ordered a size 16, im normally a 12-14. Unfortunately as I am 5'8" the length is just slightly too short even in the bigger size, if I had ordered a 14 it would have been way too short. I am also a size 32F so the cup size was not ideal, how about some longer length swimsuits for the larger busted lady Boden?
                  On the plus side the material was a great colour and quality.

                      I am usually a size ten but. as I am nearly six feet tall, I ordered this in both a size 10 and 12. Both were way too short in the body. I love the style and patterns but Boden doesn't appear to be catering for tall people. Introducing a longer length size for swimsuits would solve this problem.

                            12 weeks after giving birth it was a daunting experience to get into a swimsuit to take my little one to the pool. This swimsuit fits in all the right places and has given me the confidence to show off my curves. A very flattering shape - I love it!
