This suit is cute and allows for decent coverage. I haven't worn a bikini in years, but this may help me break that rule. My only issue is with the top being a bit stretchy. It's a pull on top with no closure. I guess I expected a bit more structure for "the girls" with a molded cup style but it's maybe a bit too stretchy.  That said, since you are ordering without trying on, it does give you some flex for fit and won't give you that "muffin top" effect. Haven't water tested it yet. Bottoms cover the navel, so for a 5'5" person the skin gap in the photo is pretty consistent with my experience. Ready to get in the swim.
