Swimwear Solution

You cannot return anything, not even a dress of cover up if it doesn’t fit. I bought a dress as a gift and it was too big but all they would give me is in store credit which I don’t want. I want my money back. I’ve never seen a store do that unless you didn’t have the receipt.

I arrived right at closing and they would not open the door. I called and asked to buy a gift card they asked if I would come back tomorrow. I will not drive 30 minutes just for this again.

I’m really surprised by all the negative reviews here. Don’t let them dissuade you from stopping in! They have an AMAZING and enormous selection of swimsuits that come in every imaginable cut, color, and pattern. I walked in searching for a sexy one-​piece that would conceal my belly (thanks, Thanksgiving) without making me appear matronly. There were two women working and they were both incredibly helpful and knowledgable about different brands and sizing without being pushy or intrusive. They have gorgeous one-​pieces for all ages, and many of them have body shaping and contouring abilities. I definitely found what I was seeking.
As an aside, I have a small frame and really benefit from swimsuits that have more structure than skimpy bikinis, and I was pleased to see that they have plenty of two-​piece swimsuits with push-​up and/​or underwire support. They also have fun swimsuits with wider bands that offer a more retro vibe. I had a tough time choosing.
They also carry sunglasses, flip flops, resort wear, cover ups, jewelry, and men’s swim stuff. The swimsuits offer sizes for plus size women, too.
All of the products felt like they were made with quality and design, and the prices reflect that. That said, I really feel like you get what you pay for with swimwear, and am confident that my purchases were worth the cost.

I went to this shop looking for higher quality swim wear and have been thoroughly disappointed. The first top I bought the underwire torn out after one summer season and had to be re-​sewn.
This summer I purchased a cute white and blue patterned top. I noticed after my first and second use the white was yellowing. By the third use the top didn’t even match the bottoms. I don’t use tanners or any product other than sunscreen and followed the care instructions. When I took it into the store I was told basically it was my fault because white suits cannot be worn in lakes or public pools because this can happen. I am not really sure where one can use this swim suit then.
Regardless, when I pay as much as this store charges I expect quality products and have yet to have experience such. I will not be returning or recommending in the future.

My wife and I stopped in and were surprised that we weren’t even acknowledged, apparently we didn’t meet their demographic requirements and left without spending a dime. Was interesting that another person walked in and they rushed over to welcome them to the store which meant blocking us from exiting easily.
This place used to be very customer oriented when in Overland Park, guess things change.

Love this store! I can always find something that fits perfectly and looks great, most times I find more than one suit that works! The staff is very knowledgeable and willing to help. I really feel like I m first priority when I walk in!
As a 30D bra size, I have a hard time finding things that fit, but I’ve never had a problem here. Another great part is that they offer in store, timely alterations. There have been times when I’ve needed an extra few inches taken out of the back of a suit and they are more than happy to help out. I usually get my suit back within a week or two depending on how busy they are. They sell push up cups that can be sewn into suits, too!
I love to shop local, so this store was a great find, It’s the only location and the owner works in store. I love being able to ask any question I have and know that I will get the answer, the staff works closely and can always help out. There are some younger girls that work there too, but they’re just as knowledgeable about the products which I find very impressive.
Overall I love this shop. I love being able to find cute, great quality, designer name swimsuits year round. I can’t recommend it enough!

No acknowledgement that I was even there. $ 200 later at check out, barely a thank you. I’ve shopped here before and had the same experience. Twice is enough. The people that work there must hate it. Good selection but don’t expect service or eye contact.

I went in thinking that I would be greeted by a friendly associate who would assist me with my swimwear needs. If I wanted to go browse around a small selection of ugly swimming suits, I would have gone to WalMart. The associates were rude, and the selection was poor. I would not recommend patronizing this business ever.

On June 22, 2014 I was shopping in Hawthorne Plaza and came upon Swimwear Solution. I proceeded to walk in and check it out. No one greeted me or said anything to me but nonetheless, I proceeded to look around and I found a Maxi Dress I liked and wanted to try it on. I proceeded to go to the dressing. There was a lady sitting in a chair waiting on her daughter. No one else was around. No sales person and no customers waiting in line. I saw an empty dressing room and proceeded to walk in and lock the door. I had my blouse almost off and someone with a key opened the door (they did not knock; most other stores I go to they knock on a closed door before opening). They saw me half naked and proceeded to close the door. I was asked my name, I told them. What came next is something I have never experienced in my life adult life or expected from a store (I am a 50 year old Latina women). I was asked to get dressed and get out of the dressing room because I did not have my name on a list. I proceeded to tell them I did not know anything about a list… they said to bad so sad but that I had to get out of the dressing room. Needless to I got dressed and walked out. I have never been so humiliated and embarrassed in my life. I will NEVER shop in that store and will be publishing my experience in Twitter and Facebook. Employees at Swimwear Solution need to learn customer service and etiquette.

Overpriced swimwear and RUDE sales associates. Will take my business elsewhere.

I went into this store to find a cute swimsuit for a date. Once inside the sales girls were rude and unhelpful. I found a few suits without help and took them into a dressing room to try on. While in the dressing room, I could hear the girls who worked there openly giggling at me and making fun of women in the dressing rooms, me included. The lady in the dressing room next to me was getting a lot more attention and help. I think it’s because the sales girls thought she had money to spend and I didn’t. I felt bad for the lady next to me though because the girls were basically calling her fat. That’s not cool!

I visited the store today with high hopes of finding some bottoms that would fit great as that is what I heard could be expected of this store. I was extremely disappointed. The store associate was completely unhelpful and I ended up leaving within 5mins of walking in the door.
I expected more from a store that brags about helping women find the perfect suit. I will not be back and will encourage my friends to hop elsewhere.

Saleseperson was curt & quick-​seemed annoyed to serve me. Then one of the saleswoman almost ran me over with the vacuum! I found same bathing suit 25% off across the street at Macy’s. I will not go back in that store even if they have a big selection –too rude!

There is no question the prices are pretty high but equally I’ve found the quality is there! I’ve purchased several suits over the past 8 years and have never been dissapointed. My build makes it near impossible to shop anywhere else.
For the past 2 years I’ve been taking my 14 year old daughter there as well since she is very slim but well developed. We had difficulties finding anything for her that fit appropriately but Swimwear Solutions has been able to fit her everytime in suits she likes (not too old looking) and she’s comfortable in.
I highly recommend it if you are hard to fit or are looking for well made suits. They also do custom work as well but I’ve not had experience with it myself.

Prices are high but I always have great luck finding a swimsuit here. They have awesome suits for all ages or body types.

Do you have a swimwear problem? Are you ‘resorting’ in the next few months and can’t find anything to wear?! Could life be more stressful?!
That’s the basic aim of this store — if you didn’t know already. It’s November and it’s not getting any warmer anytime soon — so the cashier told me it’s the «slow season» from now until December. But after that, the resort crowd raids the place and after that, loaded spring breakers raid the place, and after THAT — it’s summer all over again!
That’s the life of swimwear in the Midwest anyways, and in Johnson County no less. The sale rack was a bit cheesy — too many zebra prints and screaming oranges but the selection was vast and mostly wonderful elsewhere in the store and they carry top brands, from Michael Kors to Calvin Kline — you can find a killer suit in here if you want one. The sale rack isn’t much less than the suits in the front — so I would spend the extra $ 10 for a better looking and styled bathing suit — just a tip.
They also sell: sunscreen and tanning oils, jewelry (Caribbean themed of course for those pesky resorters!) and also hats (wide-​brimmed, for women named Muffy or Edwina) and snazzy resort-​style sandals in all sizes (and also on sale).
The prices range from $ 75 — $ 150 — I believe. Different designers and manufacturers price so varied so don’t take my word for it as there were thousands of bathing suits — the selection is incredible. I especially liked how laid back everything was with all things considered. The cashier even joked with me about «those lucky few» who are able to vacation in the winter — she was a chill lady.
