Fits small based on
10 customer reviewsWhat customers are saying:
These J.Crew Playa string bikini bottoms are clearly meant to be a skimpier, Brazilian-style fit, and a lot of customers liked the cute cut, adjustable ties, and overall look. A common theme was that they run small and offer very minimal coverage, so customers often suggested sizing up if they want a more comfortable fit or a bit more coverage. Several customers with petite or lean frames found the fit especially flattering, while others noted the suit looks best when you’re comfortable with a barely-there style. Quality and style got strong praise overall, with the color and details like the little beads also standing out as fun touches.

Fits true to size
Small and sweet
August 14, 2018As someone with a smaller bum, it was nice to not have a baggy suit bottom, finally. Love the cut. The colour is a bit deceptive — looks orange when dry and cherry red when wet. Overall cute, well-made, and great for summer.

Runs small, but looks great.
July 6, 2018I almost didn't buy this bikini because of all the negative reviews implying that it runs way too small. This is the type of product that forces you to be honest with yourself about your body type and what may or may not be most flattering (and appropriate) for you. It definitely is meant to run small and reveal more than the traditional JCREW bikini bottoms. It looks and fits best if you have a petite frame and lean build. I hate to say it, but if you want it to look the way it looks on the model, you need to look like the model. This bikini, regardless of size, is meant to have a more Brazilian look/feel to it. Again, not to offend anyone, but it definitely fits best on a model-like frame.

Way too Skimpy and Small
May 30, 2018Coverage is minimal and a size small was 100% too small for my body, in other words, I needed two times this swimsuit to cover the area it was supposed to cover. When I tried these on, all I could think of was the scene in Shrek where the gingerbread man checked Pinocchio's underwear and shouted in the tiniest voice, "It's a thong!!" Size Ordered: Small High Waist: 26 inches Low Waist: 29 inches Hips: 36 inches Chest: 32 C Height: 5"3" Weight: 115 lb Body Type: very short torso and long legs
