Let me start by saying I LOVE this bathing suit. I love it so much I have bought it twice, in two colors, in the last two years. It is so flattering and so comfortable. The ribbed fabric doesn't look like a bathing suit at all, so it's very chic to wear with a skirt or shorts. That said, there are two little issues I think you should know about. First, if you have larger boobs, the top is going to flip/roll over, revealing a little half inch plastic strip that I think is supposed to grip your skin (if you have a flatter chest? maybe?). I just wish that plastic strip wasn't there because I have to constantly fold it back under. Second, the fabric does tend to pull and pill over time, so it can start to look worn/fuzzy after a while. This is not a suit for active swimming if you have a fuller chest, but it is a FABULOUS suit for laying out.
