Great it!,
May 24, 2013
By: Deb10573
from Greenwich,CT
"I ordered two sizes not sure which would fit. I found the smaller of the two was very flattering. My only complaint was I expected muted colors like the picture in the catalogue, instead the colors were vibrant. I liked the fit of the suit so I kept it."

Best swim dress ever!,
February 27, 2013
By: McTavish
from San Jose, Ca
"I just tried it on and it fits perfect, right coverage and tummy control at a great price. I love that the bottoms are attached, my swim dresses don't offer that. What a plus! It also came so fast after I ordered it."

Lovely Swimsuit,
February 6, 2013
By: SheltieMama
from Up North, Michigan
"The suit fit me very well, running true to size. The colors are more vibrant, as another reviewer said. More bright turquoise, ivory, olive and brown. Very pretty combination. The style is flattering. I hadn't seen this brand of swimwear on any other websites."

Nice swimsuit,
January 30, 2013
By: Happy50
from Ontario, Canada
"After I saw the swimsuit on Orvis site, I fell in love with it. I am a 5'6 130 lb, and usually buy an 8 or a 10 top.
I thought to buy one size up, so I ordered 12. It looks very nice, comfortable. Probably size 10 would have also worked.
The green color is a little darker than the picture, but overall the print and the color are very nice.
Thank you!

By: linf
"This is the most comfortable swimsuit I have ever tried---comfortable in its size and fabric and construction, comfortable balancing sexiness with modesty and covering trouble areas, ----price is more than I really want to pay but this suit is worth it!"

Great Suit,
June 27, 2012
By: RiBi
from Long Island, NY
"I'm 5'4" and weigh 147lbs. I'm small on top with large hips and thighs. I bought a size 14 and I love it. The top portion does Not have stiff, molded cups which are always too roomy for me. The skirt gives great coverage and overall its super comfy! My only complaint is the print on the fabric does not look as pretty up-close as it does on the model. It's definitely prettier from a slight distance."

"The bright green-to-turquoise color of the print was at variance with the color in the catalogue photograph. Also the narrow straps were binding and uncomfortable."

Pretty,
June 26, 2012
By: jen4
from Richmond, CA
"I ordered up because my size 10 swimsuit at home is getting tight and also b/c of other reviews here. The suit fit okay but perhaps a tiny bit big in the bust, as mentioned by another reviewer. The color is also louder than pictured in the catalog/website, and those two factors led me to return the suit. However, I would still say it is a pretty suit and I may change my mind and order a size 10. (At $98, I felt it had to be perfect.)"
