 Its growing on me May 22, 2007

I bought this swimsuit wanting something that would offer good coverage in and out of the water without looking too matronly. To start, the colors in this suit are so much more vibrant in person. I questioned how it would look with my coloring, but after receiving it I really don't think there is anyone it would look bad on, especially someone with a nice tan. The price is great, and the fabric, lining, and stitching seem to be of good quality. The skirt isn't just a coverup, it is made of the same swimsuit fabric so you can swim in it if you want. Ok, now for the bad.
The torso part of the top appeared to be longer in the picture than it actually is. Now that I look at the picture after wearing the suit, the length does appear to accurate, but the way the suit is tucked in on the sides makes it seem longer. The top is not cut like this, it is more of a straight fit. This part of the suit does not fit very tightly, so when you are in the water it has a tendency to float up, as does the skirt. This is the first time I've purchased a tank/skirtini, so maybe this is typical of suits like this. Although I was extremely careful in measuring myself before ordering, this suit does not fit as I expected. According to their size chart the size I ordered should have been a perfect fit, but I find that the bottoms are a little snug while the top fits a little loose. There is hardly any support in the chest, so as mentioned before by someone else I would not recommend this suit to anyone who is top-heavy. All you get for support is a thin (and on mine not very tight) band of elastic under your bust. The tie at the neck is adjustable, but since the straps widen at the neck you may not be able to tie it as tightly as you might like. There are also two thin pads in the top, but I think they are mostly there to prevent others from knowing when you are "too cold". The pocket for these pads takes up the entire halter part of this top so they have a tendency to move up while you're swimming. It took me a while to feel comfortable in this top, but the past couple of days I've put it through a lot (vigorous swimming, kids tugging at it) and have yet to have a "wardrobe malfunction". The bottoms provide great coverage to your rear end, but may be cut a little low for someone self-conscience about a tummy.
So with all these faults I sure you're wondering why I'm giving this suit 4 stars. Its still a flattering suit, and athough it may sound stupid, the more I wear it the more beautiful I feel in it. It doesn't cover up all my flaws the way I hoped, but I feel like I look nice enough in it to forget about them and just have a good time. Since having children, I thought I'd never feel like that again.
Sorry for the long review, just wanted to be as accurate as I could.

Amazingly beautiful. The picture does not give the full affect. Im very tall so it came to about mid calf on me. It came with the tags on. The only thing about it is that you have to sew on the included straps if you want them on. The dress fits the exact measurements given. No room for leway either buy the exact size of choose a diferant dress. Overall very pleased with the product.
