Newport News Shape fx Bandeau swimdress

Comment: I don't think the previous reviews describe well enough that this suit in white is see-through wet or dry. The cup lining/padding and the attached bottome is very discernible through the fabric even when the suit is dry. The suit is very flattering though. I am wishing I had ordered it in a different color. Unfortunately, I will be returning the white one.

Comment: Aside from being pretty and likely an easy "fit" for most body types, this suit is good quality and provides excellent lower body coverage while providing a tastefully sexy bust/neck line. Because of the empire-waist-esque design, my midsection and hips seem to be camouflaged under the feminine overlay. I was happy to discover this swimsuit is fully lined which speaks to the value of this purchase. It is a flattering length for me as well(I'm 5.8" tall, size 18, slightly pear shaped). My only complaint is the lack of colour choices. I have daringly ordered the white however and I love it!

Comment: Very cute and modern swimdress. I got a lot of compliments on it. Luckily, I ordered a black colored swimdress so the "see-through" problem didn't really affect me. I would have preferred if it had some padding though just to give it a little extra boost, but overall, it's adorable and fits really well!

Comment: so i went swimming at a public pool today and found out the hard way that you can see right through the top part of the dress, but only when it gets wet. it is a very cute swim suit and it gives just the right coverage for being a bigger girl. i just wish that they would put a white piece of fabric up on the top part of the suit so that it would be appropriate to wear at a public pool.

Comment: I was looking for a swimdress that looked modern and nothing like what my mother used to wear--- and I found it in this suit! Love the halter styling and empire waist.... gives it a really young and hip look. My only complaint is that there are no soft cups up top. The white is sooo cute, but your girls will show right through! I liked the suit so much that I spent $20 to have a tailor add some cups to give the coverage it needs, and give me the little lift that I need! ;) The rest of it is not see through and is lined with a nude lining so you can kind of see the attached panties through (making it appear like a 2 piece)---which also helps to mod it up~! So, for me, would have been perfect if they had just gone one step further and added a little support up top.
