I'm chubby and insecure about my boobs and stomach, and this was so flattering! The shaping around the boob area and mesh made them look so good, and the shiny fabric gave a nice looking shape to my torso. The zipper at the crotch is really long, and can zip from the front all the way to pretty high on the butt, which is great because sometimes the openings on crotchless stuff can be too small. I wore a pair of black fishnets under the suit and it looked great! I am a size 14 and bought XL and thought it fit perfectly. There is some stretch to the fabric, but the part that secures around your neck is kind of tight, so I would stick to whatever your normal size is. Highly recommend!
