    Perfect for A/B girls but SIZE UP!

    I’m so happy with this gorgeous print and the fit but… I am a 34B, 118 pounds and the small was too small because the ties in the back are WAY shorter than pictured. I could only make a tiny bow so I sized up to the M and had more to work with.

    The fit is so flattering for the A/B girls! No extra fabric puckering anywhere. I went swimming in this top today and had no issues at all.

    I took one star because I’ve been a consistent size S in bathing suit tops from Carve for years and I feel the sizing is off. I took the size finder quiz and it suggested a Small. Completely off. Also, I wish the ties were longer. The photos online are not accurate.

    The Sierra print is stunning and looks so good against a tan.

    Very cute!

    Adorable top with just the right amount of coverage for my 32C chest. Love the adjustable toe back feature. I only took off one star because not so sure how secure this top would be for active things or water parks, afraid the bottom might ride up over my boobs a little bit.

    Tamarind Top-Size DD

    I had high hopes for this top but unfortunately the sizing seemed off. I ordered this in a medium DD and it was too small around and in the cup size, so I ordered a large DD and it was too large around and still the cup size was too small. I wear a bra size 34DD and was disappointed that neither size would work for me. Cute top and love the violet color. I just think this doesn’t work very well if you’re a DD cup size.

    too wide

    I bought this in a small. I am 5'5" and weight 120 lbs. I just got this top, and while it is cute standing up, if you bend over, it feels like you are going to fall out of the top. The cups are completely flat with the top edge just covering the nipples. I took a 1.5" tuck in the center of the front of the suite, and now it feels much more secure.
