Miraclesuit - worth the extra money?

Anyone have any experience of these? Are they much better than other control swimsuits and worth the extra money? We're going on beach holiday in October, so looking for bits in the sale. (I'm a size 12-14 but have a large twin mummy tummy so do really need the control)

Thanks

I don´t know OP, but I´d like to know too! So bump for you!

12-14? I would wear a bikini
Honestly
It is so much more comfortable, so much more forgiving
You don't want to look like you are corseted up

Honestly I think the Brits are the only people who hide behind swimsuits... There is no need. Bikinis are actually more flattering and more forgiving.

Sorry to be so blunt but I have been on a lot of beaches recently - the ones in swimsuits look less comfortable, less confident

Second wearing a bikini. Seems scary here, but will be much better there, and will not draw attention to you like armour plated swimsuit Smile

I really can't wear a bikini. Having twins has left me with a lot of excess skin and stretch marks. I'm fairly small and toned everywhere else so it really stands out.

I bought a swim dress for my holidays recently. There are plenty that are not old ladyish and really covered my tummy and top of legs up! (i am only 41!)

Thanks - a swimdress is a good idea. I might have a search for one.
