I am SO happy I ordered these panties! I am on a budget so I was looking for the best value in a bikini style. I was a little hesitant thinking that the ruffles would show through my clothes, but they are fine. The fit is fine (I would say that as the description says, order a size larger). I usually wear a women's small, but the medium fits me very well. After reading other reviews from the same brand, I think people are REALLY exaggerating about the sizing difference. What I mean is, yes, order one size up, but if you are not a thin person, these may not fit you and you have to realize that. In my opinion, these are NOT plus size panties or panties made for curvy women but rather for women that have the body type of the model they are on. I am petite and have the body type more of a teen at 115 lbs with no huge curves and the medium fits perfect. My suggestion is to look at the model in the picture and if you have this kind of body type these panties will probably work for you. They are made in China, but the material is nice and thick and they are well made with such cute styling. Overall, one of the best purchases I have made.
