I am so happy I ordered this when I could; I have the blue in an 18 which is the same as my pant size. The suit is not binding or irritating, and I love the way it looks (wish I looked better IN it though). I have a dozen very expensive plus-size swim dresses/skirts from a well-known catalog retailer that hardly ever make it out of the drawer anymore because I always go for this one first. I only gave four stars because it would be even an BETTER suit if it had a tummy-control panel (are you reading this, Speedo??) too.   Also, the soft bra cup inserts constantly move around or fold over and you only have a VERY small opening to get in and rearrange them through. The skirt floats up a lot while you are simming, so you may not want to wear it for water aerobics or fast lap swimming because it would constantly be in the way. Even though there is plenty of coverage with the brief underneath, I''m constantly pulling it back down in the water because I don''t want some ankle-biter with googles checking out my rear end underwater. I hope they are not discontinuing this style, and come out with more colors. In summary ,I would definitely buy this again in another color if I ever got the chance.

Bought for wife.  Product is as advertised and fir wife very well.  Wife is pleased with fit, design and styling.  Would like more color options.

I took the advice of other reviews and ordered one size larger than a usually take and it fits perfectly:  therefore, a size 16 is the correct size for a size 14.  The fit is comfortable and supportive, good for my water aerobics class.

This suit is only "true to size" if you order a size larger, as one would normally do with a swim suit.  It is very attractive and slimming, but it is very difficult to get on and off.  The only way to do it is by stepping into it, and then it is quite an effort to get it pulled up.  Would not recommend this suit for someone with limited flexibility.

I normally wear b/w a 14 & 16, I bought a size 18 and it fits perfect. I think a 16 would have been too small & definitely glad I didn't get a 14. The swimsuit body has good elastic for a slimming look & the attached swimdress drapes nicely so it doesn't cling even when wet. I was very pleased with the purchase & would recommend the suit (just remember to buy one size bigger).

Cute suit, runs very small, sent it back.
