Had to get a emergency suit at Lake Chelan last summer. Lucked out love this suit! I am a size 10-12 and got a 14 in this suit. I always get my suites 2 sizes bigger so I do say it is true to size for a swim suit. Flattering suit and got one for my Mom. Wish Speedo would get some halter tankini tops that have a tight bra area and loose and longer length around the stomach. Just not a tight tankini top! Will be trying two of the skirted bottoms this summer and possibly one of their tankini tops!

Comments about SPEEDO Solid Piped Swim Dress:
This week I had a chance to wear the suit twice while swimming with two groups of grandchildren. The suit was comfortable and I felt like I looked good.
This suit is extremely attractive and would be great for casual swimming or to wear at the beach. It has a nice fit and is comfortable. However, I wore it to aqua classes at my gym and despite caring for it precisely as recommended and alternating it with additional suits, it deteriorated after only 3 uses. The spandex pulled out and the fabric became transparent in places. After the 5th use the dress portion had sagged to below my knees and I had to throw it away. Again, beautiful design, but not up to Speedo quality. Buy it only for occasional swimming (no high-chlorine gym pools) or to wear at the beach.
