***REVIEW – AussieBum Swish Imperial Swimmers***

I have the huge pleasure of reviewing a pair of AussieBum swimmers today. I was sent the Swish in Imperial in a size Large. I have to say that I was really thrilled since I love BLUE and you all know that. I am going to start this review a bit out of the ordinary and talk about sizing. As you all know, we here at Undies101 subscribe to the philosophy that it’s not always about the size you wear as opposed to how you look and feel in it. That means that you sometimes go down a size and sometimes you go up one. It is totally about the fit and feel. While I wear a Medium in their underwear, I know that in swimwear, I need to go up a size in AussieBum.

That being said, I will continue with the review and apologize in advance for my lack of pictures. I was hoping to have a friend come by and snap some shots of me in Central Park lounging in my new swimmers. My friend flaked on me yesterday and today, so you’ve got two shots of me in my swimmers in my apt as I didn’t want to keep this review any longer.

This swimmer is made of a Nylon/Elastane blend – 80% Nylon and 20% Elastane. It’s the majority nylon that makes this suit less stretchy than most of your traditional suits, it’s why I need  to size up. These are cut like a speedo and they do have a nice full liner and a drawstring at the waist. They were absolutely perfect to lay out and catch some sun in yesterday afternoon in the park. The blue is not your typical navy, it’s a brighter blue, Imperial they call it. I was so hoping to get you some great shots of me laying out in it, sorry. I can’t wait to wear this on the beach and swimming! It’s an amazing suit. The fit is great, it hits right below the waist, provides amazing coverage but gives a nice bulge and shows off your assets well. If you’re nervous about some of the smaller speedo cuts, definitely give this one a try – well worth it!

As a reminder, our ratings scale is:

Flirting Material: It fits okay, really great to wear out for a short amount of time.
Hookup Material: The fit is much better, sits well and wears well, but might not be comfortable for all day wear.
Dating Material: The fit is great, sits well, accentuates the positives and wears really well – suitable for all day wear.
Match Made in Heaven: You love the fit, you love the style, best undies you’ve worn in years and will be part of your regular wear. 
I am definitely giving this a Match Made in Heaven and I can’t wait to get out to the beach in it and not just lounging in the sun! Huge thanks to the folks at AussieBum for sending this Swish Imperial Bikini for the purpose of this review. If I can manage to wrangle a friend to take some pics of me outside in these, I’ll be sure an add them and update you all!
