Bikini is ridiculously small
January 6, 2019Absolutely horrible sizing -my daughter is 13 and weighs 75 and this bathing suit top in XXS is obscene on her . Fortunately you were stuck with it because it was a final sale so my daughter said let’s give it to Goodwill and somebody with a five-year-old can buy it !!!

covers just enough
November 22, 2018I purchased a variety of playa bottoms, and this one has an amount of butt coverage that I would wear in public. Not all of them do. Not to say it isn't skimpy--it certainly is. But it still feels decent. I'm 5'5", 118 lbs, and the small fits well. I love the olive color. The ties on the side are a little annoying, but the adjustability feature is nice. Like all the playa suits, the fabric is thinner than classic J Crew bathing suit material, but that doesn't bother me. It's stretchy and comfortable. I can't speak to durability yet.

Cheeky!
November 3, 2018I like this piece, and I think the quality is good - but I wish I'd had a better sense of how cheeky it would be! The photos of J.Crew models don't really do a good job of showing the cut of the suit on an average person's body. It fits fine, but it's more high cut than I was expecting. I would recommend buying one size up if you have any amount of curve on the bottom. I buy 00 shorts from J.Crew, so I thought an XS would fit, but I wish I'd bought a small.

Unfortunate
August 27, 2018When I saw these on sale I should have figured it was too good to be true. The colors are great (online and in person), the quality is good, but the coverage in the rear is sooo minimal. I usually wear a medium in bikini bottoms, I went as far as ordering an XL and there is still way too little coverage. I understand this is a trend, and that some people can rock it like there's no tomorrow, unfortunately for me these are going to have to go back.
