Pros:
Well made. By this I mean high quality material, fine stitching, no loose threads, extra care to details. Lovely pattern, color. No fading even after sitting in the direct sun for around 36 hours total. Washed and dried up well. No shrinking, no fading, did not lose shape. Ruffle around shoulders SUPER CUTE. Flattering in the tummy area. Enough butt coverage. Did not have skimpy material in the crotch area - all your bits are covered. Adjustable straps. Flattering fit. True to size.Cons:
Straps kept slipping down, even after they were adjusted. Hard to raise your arms.For reference:
I am 5'7, 165 lbs, 36C, pear shaped. Mom of 3 so I have the mommy pooch and have loose tummy skin after losing 128lbs.When I say this suit is flattering, I mean it. I have loose tummy skin - not too much but enough to be self concious about it - after an extreme weight loss. This suit is very flattering and slimming in the tummy and waist/hip area. I especially like the support in the bra area also. The ruffle added a trendy, flattering touch. I receive compliments every time I wear this suit. It has a very retro vibe.
