I ended up returning this suit because the colors were a little too muted in person and the fit was not what I was looking for. I have worn TYR suits (though a different style) for many years but this was the first time trying the Asperus Scoop Neck Controlfit Durafast Elite. So, it's really more my mistake in that, for my build, I probably don't need the Controlfit aspect of this suit (5' 7", 120 pounds), but I was looking for full bottom coverage and nothing low cut, so I gave it a try. The styling was a touch too matronly for me, the material too thick and the cut at the neck uninspiring--basically, did nothing for my figure. This suit might be more attractive if the straps were halter style (which I briefly thought about modifying). However, if you are looking for a basic suit with an interesting pattern for water aerobics, I think this would work well. I was just looking for something a little more interesting (and flattering) for vacation. Per other TYR suits, in my experience, you do have to order up several sizes compared to street clothes, but this is not necessarily unique to TYR. For reference, I wear a size 10 in TYR, but am long-waisted.
