I sized up and it fits perfectly! I am a mom of three little ones, so I am constantly running around in a suit, and this stays put and as I mentioned before, it is so comfortable. I want it in all the colors now!!!" —Michael A. Byrd

The bottoms hit me in all the right places and the whole suit is so comfy. It’s thick and feels more expensive than it really is.

    Promising review: "I'm so happy with this purchase! It's so hard to find good quality bathing suits in bigger sizes, and this one is so cute and flattering. I was really nervous about the top because I'm a DDD cup. Most bathing suit tops even in plus sizes are too small for me. I'm happy to report that this top fit very well. It has pretty decent support and the straps are adjustable as well. I would love to order other colors now that I know it fits so well." —shabbychicsteph

    Promising review: "OMG y'all! I am so much in love with this suit that I'm ordering more! I am a chunky monkey and love my curves and I ordered a 2X just to be sure! It fit perfectly everywhere! The bottom wasn't too tight, just right. The top of course is my favorite and the straps unhook in the back too cause I don't care for tan lines!

    Promising review: "OK so if I do a review that means I am pretty much satisfied; it fits really well!! But I do need to take in the bottoms a little cause it sags in the waist area (I have a small waist). Quality is awesome, stretches well.
