bustline too small but rest of fit is great

I have another TYR fitness suit from swim outlet that's perfect.  It's a solid color, racing T-back, and marked in UK sizes.  According to the size translation chart, this suit here (marked in US sizes), should have been the same size. But in reality it's torso is much longer and looser.  So the size appears to run larger than expected.  I'll be returning it.

Plus, I'm on the large end of the spectrum lately, and this suit isn't as flattering as I'd hoped it might be.  Contrary to the picture shown (a smaller size, better figure), the suit in my size ends up having more fabric on the side stripes, which calls attention to their width in my opinion.

I usually wear a size smaller, which you did not have when I ordered this item.  I still haven't worn it because it's bigger than the suit I'm currently wearing.  But it's better than nothing, so I'm hanging onto it.

I bought this bathing suit to do some boogie boarding/ active swimming with. I think I ordered a size too big. When I swim fast the suit pulls down from the top and I have to readjust it. It's a great suit otherwise.  Runs bigger than size stated.

I bought this suit for water aerobics.  I have a long torso and it fits well.  The tummy control and design of the suit help to somewhat hide the "pooch".  It dries fast.  Wish the bra cups would stay in place a little better but they aren't bad.  I have a meduim chest and it holds me in pretty well but if you have a large chest, I don't think this suit would work.

Size was true, colors and style are very nice, but I didn't like the size and shape of the covering in the back and sides.
