Fits true to size based on
30 customer reviewsWhat customers are saying:
Customers really like the bandeau style, saying it’s cute, flattering, and easy to wear with or without the optional strap. Many mention that it stays in place well and offers good support for a strapless top, making it a nice basic swim option with lots of color choices. Fit seems a little inconsistent across colors and styles, so some customers suggested trying more than one size to find the best match. A few customers also noted that the padding can look bulky, but overall the look and comfort get strong praise.

Great bikini top
February 21, 2019I love the color and the style. I’m normally a size 2 dress, 34b, and this top fit on the tightest latch in size small. I think an XS would’ve been perfect for me and wish I’d ordered in that size instead. I didn’t have time to exchange it before our vacation as I’m sure J Crew would have easily exchanged it.

Awful quality
December 3, 2018I liked the style and fit but (1) the bandeau keeps folding over at the top and needs constand adjustment, (2) it is not secured at the U ends and the fabric slips off, (3) the seams inside are poorly finished, and (4) worst of all, it develeped multiple holes in the lining in the first week of wearing. Waste of money.

Hope You Make These Again Next Year....
July 8, 2018..if you work on the quality control in sizing! I bought the belvedere red in small last summer (2017) and really liked the style (a more supportive version of your old school basic bandeau top from early 2000s.) So I ordered the top in the bistro blue in small, too. However, after I wore the red one to the beach, I realized that the boning didn't really hold its shape and the top wasn't fitting well. This was disappointing. Thinking I'd misjudged this bandeau, I intended to return the yet unworn bistro blue top at the end of last summer, but didn't get around to it. Flash forward to this summer and I pulled out the blue top. It fits great! Boning does it's job and, interestingly, the "size small" in the blue is at least two sizes smaller than the "size small" red when I set them side by side. The strap is over an inch shorter and the cups are, too. No wonder the red didn't fit me that well... no two items tagged the same size are actually the same (or correct) size at J Crew anymore.
