I haven't actually worn it yet because I bought it for an annual 4th of July pool party that I go to. I bought it because I usually don't go in the pool, but I wanted a dress that gave me the versatility to do so. I really like this bathing suit. As I've gotten older, I prefer a more conservative look as opposed to the itsy-bitsy-teenie-weenie-bikini.

It fit as expected. I am 5'5" and between 130-135lbs (depending on the time of day). I am middle-aged with a straight build, but a little on the top heavy side (34D-30-32).  I bought a size Medium (6-8) because I had concerns about the bra cups. The upper portion feels good, it is modestly cut *(not too low, but not too conservative) there are stiff molded cup which give plenty of support. The bottom portion fits nicely with shorts instead of an awkward grandma bikini. I probably would have also fit into a Small because the dress portion is very flowing. A Small may have appeared a but more "sexy" on my figure, but I appreciate that the Medium has a casual summer dress look as opposed to a tighter form fitting look.

I can definitely picture me wearing this as a stand-alone piece to the beach, instead of a tank-top/shorts or dress over a bathing suit.
