Love the look of the suit but you have to be relatively small chested to wear it. There's just not enough fabric on the top to really cover in a flattering way if you are a C cup or larger.

I was a bit disappointed. I'm 5'5" 138lb athletic built. I generally wear a size 6 but I listened to reviews and went up sizes. I got a size 10 and the suit was super unflattering. It was smaller than I expected. If you are not an A cup I don't think this suit top will work our for you because it didn't for me.

I may not be used to more fitness-based suits, but this is tiny. I typically wear an XS (usually a size 2, maybe 4) in street clothes, and couldn't get myself into the size 10. I didn't try the top on, but the bottoms were painfully small. While I am buying a suit to swim for fitness and fat loss, the sizing really seems off.
It's a really nice style, and had the fit worked it would have been great for laps at the gym and pool events where a style-based swimsuit may not be as appropriate (such as taking my friends' kids to the pool).

I ordered 2 sizes up and it was perfect. (5ft 2, 115lbs and normally wear size 0 or 2 pants and bra size of 32A.) But I returned it because it didn't have lining and showed "headlights."

I am 5'6.5" and about 120, and the size 6 and size 8 both fit. Size 8 didn't have extra coverage on top, was just looser. The top is very narrow, I wished it had more fabric so that it hit lower down on my rib cage. I think the bottoms would have been more flattering if they were lower-rise. Would have stayed in place at the pool but ultimately not what I was hoping for. Looked cuter on the model!

I am 5'4", 125 pounds, bust is 34B,and wear about a size 6 jeans - athletic build (big bum, no chest). I ordered a size 10. The top was tight enough, but had no padding, and was too loose for someone with a mostly flat chest. The bottoms were too tight and the crotch is really long and sagged. I think a size or two lower for the top and a size higher for the bottoms might work for other body types. The material and color were perfect. I just wish it would have fit.

The bottoms for this suit are CRAZY SMALL. I read the other reviews which said this, so I ordered a size 12, even though I'm usually a size 8. (5'8, 134 lbs). The bottoms look terrible on me - they're so small. The top fits fine and is flattering, but overall I was really disappointed in the strange sizing.

I ended up returning this suit simply because the bottoms did not fit well. They were waist was higher than anticipated and did not look good. That being said, I am a 36B up top and a size 12/31 on the bottom and the 14 worked for me.

I typically wear a size 4-6 in pants. I ordered a size 8 in this swimsuit and it was way too small! It really dug into my body at the seams. Not comfortable at all!

I love this bathing suit, especially the bottoms, but the top is very tight. I read reviews and ordered a 6 and 8 just to be safe. The 8 was too small :( sad to return both.

I love the way this looks; however, the straps are way to flimsy for lap swimming. When lap swimming, going too fast causes the water to practically push the top all the way off so that I'm giving the people in the lanes next to me an underwater peep show. I am a 34b in bra size, so I have no idea how someone with a full chest could wear this comfortably.

Large breasted women stay away! I usually wear a size 10, but based on other reviews I bought a size 16 -- bottoms fit great (I'm a 40 at the hips, 31 at the waist) but the top was laughable! I wear a 36DD and there was no way my boobs were going to squeeze into this bad boy. I needed about 2 more inches lengthwise so I didn't have an absurd amount of under-boob and cleavage at the same time. There was also a severe lack of support as the straps are rail thin and made out of cheap elastic. I hope this borderline TMI review will help some of my fellow larger chested ladies out there!

If you have have big boobs, this isn't for you. Meh. I'm 5'1'' 120 and ordered a size 10. The bottoms were perfect, but the top that came with it looked like it was made for a middle schooler. My ladies couldn't even fit in it. Looked like a great suit and would have loved to have kept it. This suit will really only work if you're equally proportioned everywhere (ex. small on bottom and top or large on bottom and top).

I am 5'4, 115 pounds, 34C bust and usually wear a size 2. This suit is so small. I really think that it would only be flattering on a serious athlete. The top was SO snug (and I have a small frame), size 10 tried on and it totally dug into my neck, shoulders etc. I was looking for something modest and sporty to wear to water parks w/my kids etc. This did not fit the bill for my lifestyle! Easy returns with Zappos tho!

Whoa. Other reviewers are not kidding when they suggest that you go up 2-3 sizes. According to the Nike size chart I should be a 4 (5'4", 117 lbs, 32B, 37" hip). I ordered an 8 and a 10. The 8 was ridiculously small. The 10 was okay, but when they say hi-cut brief, they mean 1980s hi-cut brief (despite the image looking more like it sits on the hip). I don't care for hi-cut suits so I returned this one.

Even Nike has kowtowed to the size 0 trend. Where can a girl with a bust actually find a swimsuit that covers in order to actually swim for sport? Stop designing for little girls. I'm fit and thin but have boobs. I bought this 2 sizes bigger (I'm an 8; bought the 14.) It still didn't cover, and there was no way it was going to support in the pool. Plus, the bottoms fit like mom jeans, probably because the sizing is one size for both pieces.

Even a 12 was too small for my daughter who wears a medium in her clothing. Best for flat chested women.

I'm a size 4, and the size 8 did not fit. Seriously needs a sizing guide! I was a competitive swimmer my whole life, I am aware that racing suits fit tighter, but this is not normal.

This bathing suit is cute and I was looking forward to not having a bathing suit that my daughter wouldn't be able to pull off of me but even after reading the reviews and ordering two sizes up the bathing suit was tight and tiny! This may not be a good fit for some, I will be returning it.

Arg! Honestly, I should have known this wouldn't fit because swimsuits rarely do, but it was still disappointing to see such a bad fit! It's a cute suit, but just does not work. I am 5'1", 115 lbs, and a 32D/DD. Basically, pretty a curvy, but also athletic build. I saw that everyone around that size who reviewed ordered a size 10 and were pleased. However, this is one of the worst fitting garments I've tried on. The bottoms, as expected, were super tight and gave both the muffin top and sausage leg effect as well as being slightly loose in the bum area. A size down would have been even tighter around the hips, and probably not tight enough on the bum. A size up would have been way too loose on the bum and still probably quite tight around the hips. The top was actually way too big. As I am a 32D, it's difficult to find something that is small enough around my ribs and supportive/tight enough around my bust. It was loose around the ribs, loose around the busy, and the straps were way too long, making for a very unsupportive top. These problems are consistent across almost all swimwear for my body - if anyone knows of a company that makes good, training/surf/sport swimwear with accurate and more tailored sizing, I'd love to know!

I hated this suit. The top was microscopic with absolutely no support whatsoever, and the bottoms had a wide leg fit and narrow waist fit. I ordered two sizes up from my normal 6 to a 10 to accommodate for competition sizing, and it was still awful. Save your money; this suit definitely isn't worth it.

I liked how this two-piece fit, but after using it for a few months in the pool (being careful to hand-wash and air-dry it after every pool session), it TOTALLY fell apart. The outside layer of the fabric started sagging like the elasticity in it just gave up. It first happened with the bottoms, and then with the top. Looked like crap, felt like crap... just comes down to low quality materials used. Thanks for nuttin NIKE, I'll be looking elsewhere next time!
