Daci Women 2 Piece Rash Guard Half Zipper Bathing Suit with Bottom Built in Bra Swimsuit UPF 50

After a decade of veering towards a tankini top with a boy short as my bathing suit preference, I wanted a change. And as I've left my thirties, I'm also very conscious of the sun, so I started looking into rash guards to go with my boy short bottoms. Then I saw this! 1: The bottoms. Like I said, I'm a boy short girl. I like full coverage, but I still want it looking stylish -- not like a bottom for your grandma (sorry, grandmas.) These bottoms are great. Full coverage but look good! 2: The top. Since it's not like my usual tankini top, which tend to be flow-ier, I wasn't sure how I'd like this. In the pics, you can tell there isn't much give. I carry my extra weight in my belly and my arms, so I actively bought larger than my usual size. Which leads us to 3: Sizing. I'm 5/4, about 150 (thank you, quarantine) and usually wear a M top or 8/10 bottom. With bathing suits, I fall right in the middle of M/L. But like I said, I wanted the top to be looser, so I ordered both a L and XL, thinking I'd keep the one that fit best. Without a problem, the L fit. And likely, it was the appropriate size. But like I said, I wanted room in the top, so I kept the XL. The bottoms are definitely bigger than I need, but not visibly. And it was worth it for the fit of the top. If I was made of money, I'd keep the L bottom and the XL top, but I"m not, so the L went back! I've already worn it a few times and I love it. I bought the one called "A-pink" and have already gotten compliments. Took me a second to adjust to the feel of sleeves in the water, but I really mean just a second, then it was great. Actually keeps you cooler when you get out of the pool! I love the zipper in the front -- can go sexier with more cleavage if you want. I also actively didn't put suntan lotion under it to see what would happen and I totally didn't burn. UPF 50 worked. I didn't see any color change at all when I took it off later. The only complaint is the bra shelf. It's not the softest, but it's also not uncomfortable. Totally a winner!

Nice quality really liked the fit on the built in bra

I normally wear XL, but ordered this in the XXL, and it fit well. The sleeves were very roomy, and it fit overall. I got the blue coconut, and it was beautiful! I was sad to return it. I love the padding and the idea of the shelf bra, but the bra only attaches to the body of the shirt around the neckline. There is nothing going over the shoulders, so the weight of your chest pulls down on the neckline. For smaller busts, this might not be a problem, so that's why the 4 stars. For me, however, it was just too uncomfortable having the neckline pulled down by my chest. It also made the neckline look weird compared to if I held my chest up.

ABOUT ME: 5’4ft 135lbs SIZE: SMALL Under bust: 32.5” Waist: 28” Hips: 36.5” Hello Review Readers! I scoured Amazon looking for the perfect swimsuit. I am really happy with this purchase. I ordered I think 5 swimsuits total, and am only keeping this one. PROS: 1- The PRINT! I love it, it’s so fun. 2- The built in bra. I like the fact that I don’t have to wear a bikini underneath, and I could use this for other activities. 3- The zipper, since it has a bra, and it’s a slim fit top, it could be “tight” to get on/off, especially when wet. The zip allows space for the head, didn’t even have to remove my glasses. 4-the material feels really nice, not rough. The last picture is of me sitting so y’all could see that while yes it is slim fit, elastic type material, it doesn’t completely suction, or is not super super thing. There is a bit of wrinkle so it’s not going to be terribly unflattering. Small lumps won’t be emphasized. It’s going to show your overall body and shape, but not every little thing. 5-swims in the pool like a dream. I did not do any crazy swimming, but everything was great. IF YOU HAVE A LONG TORSO: 6-I really like the length and fit around my hips. Not skin tight and sucked to my stomach, but also not loose. I have a longer torso and I bought the Daci Brands One Piece that zips up, and it was not good for me. Same size (small) just reaaaally pulling. 7-for the obvious, the spf. I get a rash if I get burned that itches like crazy. I was a little self conscious about wearing long sleeves, but the more I thought about, the more I like the idea. Wear your Spf and practice Sun Prevention! The sun causes the majority of skins again. (Use a gentle cleanser, a good moisturizer, a retinol, and spf in the morning and you will be golden) NEUTRALS: 1-my shoulders are a bit wide, and the initial time I wore it, since the sleeves are tighter fitting bc it is to be worn in the water, it had a bit of a tightness in the armpit area. I swam fine in it though, and it’s not restricting any ROM. I put it on to take pictures for the review (4th time on) and It seems as if the tightness isn’t as bad a I remembered. So it either stretched out a tiny bit, or once you wear it for about 3minutes, the fabric gives. Idk. 2- The bra is really nice in that you don’t have to wear anything underneath. I will say that it isn’t overly supportive. Now I wasn’t expecting to be, but now that I think about it, I’m not sure if I could Solo bike with just this top. Wallking around or hiking I think would be okay, but anything aerobic, or bouncing around, probably not. At least not solo. THE BOTTOMS: they are nice. Full coverage. If you wanted to hike them up. You could probably get just a bit of cheekiness. Or wear them as the full brief they are intended to be. Very nice cut in the front, non of that super skinny, hope you have a Brazilian wax, barely there cut to worry about, lol. They are a nice thickness, but they ARE NOT sucking in or tummy control. If you are looking to be firmly held in, and get a bit of a slimming effect, order yourself a pair of separate bottoms. But again, these are good for what they are, just be aware of that. SIZING: I was a little worried as I ordered the Small. MY bust and hips fit the small, my waist is more for a medium. The small is great. If you are just a hair larger in one of the measurements I think you will be fine. The only way I could see you not being okay, if you have large boobs. Idk how the fabric would work with that. It does have a nice give and stretch. There is a chance it might make it pull uncomfortably in the shoulders or arms, but maybe not. If you are bigger by a little in the waist or hips, it should be fine and there is a small (very small) amount of flare in the hips that should be able to accommodate. I only recommend if you are like 1” max larger than the size chart says. IN CONCLUSION: I am happy with the quality, I find myself wanting to wear it with shorts or leggings. I plan on ordering more to do just that. I only wish they just sold the tops without the bottoms for a cheaper price. I like these prints and the built in bra, but wish I could pay just a little less. Overall, I recommend. Enjoy whatever water/outdoor thing you may be doing. We all have the right to enjoy ourselves and our bodies. Whatever you decide to buy, be confident that you look damn good.

Great rash guard. Cute piece!

True to size. Built in bra is comfortable. Bottom has full coverage. Good quality bathing suit and flattering.

The top was great and I thought about keeping it to pair with another bottom, but in the end I decided to return. The top had good built-in support and fit just right. But the bottoms weren't high rise enough to cover my muffin top and I had an awkward line across my middle that just was NOT flattering. I'm used to super tummy control suits with rigid mesh, and this isn't it. If you are less flabby than me in the middle, this would be a great suit! Skinny girls have all the luck....

I was very hesitant to buy a swimsuit online because fit is always a gamble and it's a hassle to deal with returns. After too much research, reading reviews and being reluctant to buy, I finally chose this swimsuit. I am in between small and medium. I usually wear size 4-6, am 5 ft 3 inches and 130lbs. I have a small chest (34A) but a larger bottom (38 inches). Whenever I buy a small, it's too small on the bottom, but if I buy a medium, the top is to large. I was in between sizes according to the side chart. To compare, I bought this swimsuit in both small and medium. Although I could fit the small, I found the medium to be more comfortable for both the top and bottom. I have broad shoulders, so the small top was a bit tight. The medium bottom was definitely a better fit. The medium top is slightly large for my chest area, but still works. Overall, I thought it was a good fit and ended up buying two in different prints. Great sun protection, though my hands and legs are a different color than my arms after a week at the beach. I got a compliment from a stranger walking by. So glad I bought it after seeing so many sun burned people at the beach. I also swam in the ocean with this swimsuit. Everything stayed in place. The shirt did not ride up and bottoms stayed put even when pushed by a wave. The only thing I had to adjust too was being wet a little longer due to the additional coverage.
