Great suit. Very pretty in person, more so than captured in photo. Great tankini coverage. I took photos with measurements of the size 14. My daughter is an average sized girl who just turned 9 and is 74 lbs, 4 2.  Shes not a big girl, shes still in 7/8 clothes! I was going to order size 10 suit but because I read these reviews, I went up two sizes as others suggested. Crazy suggestion but its TRUE. Thanks for the heads up! She loves this suit. [Also, no issue with the crotch being cut too skinny as I saw in one review for this company. That must have been a dud suit.]
