The VVS's St. Lucia Satin Thong is a ruched, V-cut swim bottom finished with the brand's signature "VVS" metal logo plate, sold in the brand's Oasis floral print (Palm Beach colorway). It's priced at $49.00 and sold in sizes XS through 2XL.
According to The VVS, the Palm Beach colorway uses a 100% satin shell with an 80% nylon/20% spandex lining, double-lined for coverage, with adjustable side straps and the branded metal plate detail. The brand recommends hand washing. On the product page, the brand also includes customer-submitted ratings for fit ("runs small" to "runs large") and stretch factor, both of which trended toward "true to size" and "some stretch" at the time of scanning.
The listing showed 8 reviews averaging 4.5 out of 5 stars (7 five-star ratings and 1 one-star rating). Positive reviews mentioned getting compliments while wearing it and praised the adjustability for a good fit, including from a reviewer who wears an XS. However, one reviewer, A.G., rated the item 1 star, describing it as "big bulky for an XS" and calling the quality "not worth the purchase." The VVS responded directly to that review, stating the thong is designed to be fully adjustable and fit true to size including XS, offering custom sizing, and noting the customer is eligible for a return for store credit. Including this critical review alongside the positive ones gives a more complete picture than looking at the star average alone.
At $49.00, the thong is sold as a standalone bottom, though The VVS also sells a matching St. Lucia Satin Top ($59.00) for shoppers who want a full two-piece set.
Pros: Adjustable straps designed to accommodate a range of body types, double-lined satin construction, mostly positive fit feedback across a range of sizes.
Cons: At least one verified reviewer found the fit bulky rather than flattering for her size, satin fabric requires hand washing rather than machine care, and the small review sample (8 total) limits how confidently fit expectations can be set.
The St. Lucia Satin Thong earns solid marks from most reviewers for its adjustability and design, though the one critical review is a useful reminder that fit can vary by body type — shoppers on the fence about sizing may want to reach out to The VVS's team before ordering, as the brand suggests doing in its review response.
