Ruffle bandeau one-piece swimsuit in puckered stripe

This swim suit has no stretch in it! Terrible fit and not consistent with other JCrew swim products. Beautiful color and design, really wanted it to work.

I'm a 34C and typically take a size 4 or 6 in one-piece swimsuits. Per the earlier reviewer, I sized up and ordered a 6 and 8 to try. I could barely get the 8 over my hips! The fabric has almost NO stretch, which is perplexing for swimwear. It felt like I was trying to put on a strapless sheath dress without the benefit of a zipper. Once on, the bust/upper torso was too big and just hanging there, while the hips were very snug and the leg openings painful. MAYBE this suit will work if you have more of a short-waisted apple figure; for this long-waisted hourglass, it was a disaster compared to the ruched one-piece!

I ordered this in a size 2 and 4. I typically wear a size 4 in Jcrew bathing suits. Needless to say the 2 couldn’t get past my knees and the 4 was a battle to get on. I felt like I was going to rip it. Once on It was a whole struggle to take it off. There was barely any stretch - it’s a bathing suit aren’t they supposed to be stretchy? I loved the design and color but returning it.
