Lands' End on Tuesday (May 12) introduced its latest attempt to make swimsuit shopping less painful or, at the very least, more interactive.

I checked it out and agree with you. NOT real is still NOT real. This tool looks to me like a software modification of their old interactive sizing tool for different body shapes.
