This suit is a 16W. I tried it because the sizing info was close to my measurements just an inch or two bigger. I have been struggling to find a suit to support my large bust so I thought I would give this a try. I wear a regular 14 in all of my clothing, but have not had luck in this size with suits. This suit is still a bit loose, but better than most I have tried in my size. It has adjustable straps-a MUST! I hope this helps someone?
