I was nervous about trying out this one piece swim suit. I am 27, 5'1, 155 lbs, and 36 DD. I ordered the XL size and it fit perfectly. I often hate that swimsuits feel tight and had a gotten a large it probably would have fit me tight like a usual bathing suit, but I'm glad that I didn't because this swim suit fit loose enough that I wasn't uncomfortable, but tight enough that it literally didn't go anywhere even after I jumped off a catamaran into the ocean, swam all day, and even went down a few waterslides. I did double knot the halter straps while doing more active things. The suit itself feels well made and I didn't notice anything off about the stitching or defective about it even after washing it. I wore this suit 3 days during my week long cruise (switching out to another suit every other day since it was still wet after a day of wearing it). I was nervous that the one-piece dress style swim suit would be too old of a look for someone my age, but in the blue color and the way it fit I felt very young and stylish.

I saw some other reviewers complain that the colors on their suits ran into the lighter areas and I don't remember seeing anyone who ordered the blue one state this, but I did not experience any transfer of color from the blue to the white areas of the suit. I would advise washing in cold water when you receive the item. Typically hot water is what I've found makes colors bleed, but I washed mine with cold water before wearing and even in the hot tubs I didn't notice color bleeding so I think that I'm safe on the color transfer issue.

I will say  that the bottoms underneath (it is all one piece) appear to be shorts, but they are more like boy short underwear in length. It covered my butt, but it doesn't come down far on the thighs so if you are getting this with the thought that it's going to be long enough to prevent thigh chaffing, keep that in mind because it won't (invest in some anti-chafe balm or something). The skirt part is slightly longer and it covered my front and back. I didn't have much of a problem with this skirt rising up in the water. The way that it is tapered appears to be done to prevent that; however, there was a time or two when air got caught under the skirt while I was in the hot tub that made it rise, but that should be expected with any flowy fabric around strong currents or air bubbles.

I read reviews about the cups and I will say that they aren't flat cups that accommodate any breast size, the inserts are curved so if your breasts are too big or too small they will be uncomfortable and/or even noticeable. They are also slightly padded on one side which is meant to give a very light push-up, but not everyone likes that. When I first put the suit on I did have to adjust the inserts, I really just rotated/shifted them, and from that point didn't touch them again until I had to wash the suit. As with ANY swim suit you buy that has padding in the breast area, take the padding out BEFORE washing and preferably put the inserts into a bra or washing bag. Make sure that they don't remain folded or squished for a long period of time, lay them on a flat surface to dry. If you don't do this, they will lose their shape, become wrinkled and be uncomfortable. If you don't like the included cups, you can take some out of a secondary swim suit if you have them the pockets are big enough that I could have gotten different inserts in there. I wouldn't advise wearing the swim suit without any padding as the fabric is thin since I'm sure they assume you will wear some padding inserts.

Overall I was very impressed since this swimsuit was so inexpensive.
