The item arrived promptly after ordering, and having tried it on, I am very pleased with it because it feels soft, fits in a flattering way and is as described. I have not 'field-tested' it for its intended purpose yet - to wear to and from the swimming pool/sea, but I am expecting it to meet my expectations as it seems very well designed. The brand was recommended to me through AI, which mentioned Bridie and Bert as makers of upmarket items, and that aligns with my experience so far.
