This tankini is really cute and has been a favorite for years! There is a bright floral panel that runs down the center front, taking up about 50 percent of the width of the front. The sides and back are black. The floral panel is rouched. The effect of the rouching, and the black sides is very slimming. I usually do not care for Panache bras, but this is a winner. This swimsuit is cute for wearing any time, and has enough coverage for wearing to family or lightly active swim times.
The cups are molded. I have found these molded cups that are fairly open on top, maybe sort of balconette style, to be very friendly to cup size fluctuations. When I bought this swimsuit I thought I was a 32G (uk), I was probably more like a 30GG. It fit fine then, and was wearable when I was an H cup as well. At a HH cup I could wear it, but was closer to busting out, and was pushing my breasts in to the cup versus swooping and scooping, haha. Many other swimsuits do not play nicely with any size change, and I think it is the cup style on this that makes it so nice. The band stretches to a maximum of 34, which is very reasonable on a 32 band that has been worn for numerous summers. The straps are partially adjustable.
I bought the bikini bottoms with rouched sides. They are fantastic. They continue the floral down the center, lining it up with the tankini top. The rouched and streching sides do a wonderful job of looking slimming and not cutting in to create muffin top. These have moderate coverage on the rear.
