I guess it's better than nothing at all, but OMG expensive!…read more I needed a bikini fast, and this was the only place at the time that I could find with larger cups sizes AND a SMALL band. To my disappointment the bikini styles seemed a little dated and really NOT my style at all. (I couldn't even get a solid color black.) I settled for a striped one from some brand called Watercult, and a few uses later the wire was flying out and stabbing me during our vacation in Miami! For the price, one would think that it would last longer! Anyways, I had no desire to argue with my A2 level German, so I've just had to deal with it, but I am not impressed.
