Agreed. Awesome physique but those swim bottoms in the dark navy are way too small - even though the cut in general is more revealing. It's also probably that all bottoms don't work for all people (even when you're buff everywhere).
Alin I don't think it's the model. the sizing for the swimwear is seriously off. It looks like the bottom fits well except at the rear. I am still trying to figure out if the designers actually tested these products before sending them off for production.
These tiny women with no curves are spilling out of the swimwear. Definitely not for curvy girls like me. I swear Lulu is skimping on fabric these days to cut their overhead and boost profit margins. The swimwear is an epic bust for me--and I'm guessing the majority of the population, pun intended! ;)
Yikes! In LA, you see plenty of people wearing their "daughter's" tank top (way too small and they are spilling out). Well, I cannot believe LLL just created the equivalent for bottoms!
I ordered my regular Lulu size (6) and a size up (8). I am 35-27-37 and am 5'8" with a "long" torso. The size 8 suit didn't give me a wedgie or give me muffin butt, but just revealed so much more cheek than necessary. Also the suit didn't come all the way into my waist in the back so it visually added an inch or two to my waist. The inset panels at the waist and hips did a good job carving out the curves that were otherwise taken away. The shoulders in the 8 were a little roomy, and the sleeves hit about an inch above my wrist bones. All in all, I'd say this suit will work well for average-to-shorter women with smaller booties, or bodies with less of a difference between hips and waist.
Also the suit is REVERSIBLE. The brush stroke print reverses to white. It looked really cool, and was flattering to my untanned skin.
Sadly I will return the two suits. If the suit had 1/4" to 1/2" more fabric for each cheek, I would have purchased both colors.
I agree with you all. The swim bottoms are way too skimpy and inappropriate for public wear! My victorisasecret bikinis cover much more than lulu. What a shame bc I love the rest of their gear
11:50 wow you are brave for trying on that bathing suit. Thank you for the review. None of that swimwear will work on me. I am a 34DD 26 36 and 5'-3" I like to swim and dive and move in my swimsuits.

The model in the first pictures is freaking amazing but it's like her bottoms are one or two sizes too small. Is that how they're supposed to fit?

@ ano n11:50 am - thanks for the fit review.

The swimsuits feel like they're made for children. I am 5'2", 94 lbs. and the size 4 is way too small.
