While this suit doesn't fit perfectly, it still fits well. I got a 34, and if I were to get a larger size, I'm afraid it would be too big. I really like this suit; I've only worn it once but I think it will last a while. However, I felt the constant need to pull the suit down in the bottom and front bottom area, for fear of exposing too much of myself. But if you are in the water, not doing dives and sprint takeoffs, you'll love the suit.

I am on a swim team that swims Monday- Friday.  I have had it since  early Jan. 09, and it  has held up very well.  It makes me excited about practice even when I don't want to go because of it's fun print, color, and the complements I get on it .  It is also softer than my team suit for meets which is a Speedo.  It has not faded at all.   When it comes to the size my Speedo is smaller than my Uglies (Speedo- size 30 / Uglies- size 32).  Over all,  I love my suit,  and it is the best suit that I've ever had.

Cute little suit!  Sizing runs smaller than other Dolfin suits purchased in the past, so plan accordingly when ordering.

The suit pulls so that the lining affects the color of the top layer somewhat..

I love this suit!  The color and pattern is cute, unlike many.  It isn't quite as bright once you get it on because when the fabric stretches, it seems to fade a bit, but it still looks good.  I get lots of compliments on it.  It might run a tad small compared to Speedo and TYR, but it's not that much smaller.  I tried two sizes on in the store (34 and 36), and I ended up with the smaller size which is the same as my Speedo, but this suit fits a bit tighter than my Speedo.  I got the smaller size, though, because it will stretch out some.  The larger size wasn't too big, but once it stretched out, it might be.  So, it depends on how you want it to fit as to what size you should buy.  Size up if you want it to fit like the same size in a Speedo or TYR.  The other thing I love about this suit besides the great color and pattern is the fit.  The back stays down and provides great coverage.  I've only swam in it a few times, so I can't comment on how long it lasts, but being polyester, it should last a good while.  I'm a triathlete, so I only swim about twice a week.  I don't like to spend a lot of money on swimsuits because I spend so much on other stuff.  Overall, this is a really great suit at a great price!!

My daughter is on a swim team.  She needed a quality practice suit, at a great price.  This suit is perfect and it looks so cute on my daughter.
