I originally bought this for my 15 year old but ended up using it for my 11 year old. I love this swim suit! It is so cute and fun. My 15 year old and 11 year old both thought it looked too "little girl ish" at first. But I made them try it on before we sent it back (mothers do know best!). After trying it on my 15 yr old was sad it did not fit her better! The top is not very roomy if you have a chest at all!!! It was perfect on my 11 year old though and is now her swim suit of choice.
