I love these bottoms. I am a very tall and slim mother of three. About 5'11 and 140 lbs. I have no body image issues other than at 32 there are some things that have no business hanging out. I ordered the medium size. These bottoms cover the back side great and honestly don't look "grandma-ish". I wish the ties, which allow these to look like boy shorts or a typical swim suit bottom, were at the hip rather than the top of the thy but thats neither here nor there. These don't cut in or squeeze in any bad areas and are very comfortable. If you want something that is cute but not the butt bearing skimpy skin flaunting trend that is horribly over apperent these days then these are great!! Like I said these can be boy shorts or pull the ties for a nice modest bikini bottom, and can be worn as high waist or scrunched or folded for a lower on the hip feel. Great buy!!
