Aerin Rose Curacao Tie Halter Swim Tankini Top cu82411 Reviews

I was so excited when my new swim top came in the mail. The color and design are so pretty. Unfortunately it doesn't provide the support I had hoped for. Elizabeth from Hartselle, Al. 35640

I've ordered this tankini in 2 sizes and not satisfied with the fit or perhaps " tie halter " concept of it. The underwire is not a big advantage here for support, I think the halter is performing all the work. If the buyer is a petite D+ cup (or more), the halter will defeat the purpose comfort while enjoying an activity. So far it remains unused and in it's original package. The search continues.

Had to send it back as this seems to run small. I'm a true 34DDDD and this seemed small not only in the bust, but around the rib cage as well. Not sure if the next size up will fit better as its back ordered for a few weeks. Note: the halter top is a tie (versus a hook). For us bigger busted ladies, sometimes the ties are hard to give to support we need. Not sure if this suit will be supportive enough, but worth a try. I love the print and as noted on the bottoms review, the color of this suit is actually more blue than aqua. I like the actual color even better than the web photo! The silver ring on the strap adds a nice touch too.

Aerin Rose Response: Aerin Rose is finding that since they put the removable pads in all their styles this year, they might tend to be a little small UNTIL you remove the pads, then they are fine. In addition, this particular style is a halter, which can be a difficult fit for a DDDD girl if you are not that firm. You should try the 36F/G in this style, larger in band. We are still concerned about the support issue for you. We would suggest that you try something like style CO82611 or CR82711, which will give you more support. Please also remember to take out the pads. Shae from Portland, OR
