Customer Reviews Speedo Conservative Ultraback One-Piece w/ Princess Seam

Lovely suit though a bit snug in the waist. I am finding that Speedo has changed its sizing. I used to wear a size 12 in the standard Speedo Ultraback but this year the several size 12s I have ordered are all "too tall" by about 2 inches in assumed height. After ordering the size 12 in this suit, I ordered the size 10 and though a bit more of a struggle to get it over my waist, it is now the size I must buy. And the bra is better than the old comparable black "lap" suit.

Good classic Speedo, with plenty of coverage in the upper thighs and rear end without having to go to a skirt or shorts,which I don't care for as I swim laps and want it all as streamlined as it can be. Service and delivery were easy and fast, fast, fast!

I am 5'8" and 150 pounds and have worn Speedo size 14 for many years because I need the length. The size 14 in this style was too big. It is definitely a conservative suit, more conservative than the previous model. Note that the leg openings are longer than I expected -- almost like short-shorts. This is a great suit for someone, just not me. I am returning it.

I was looking for a suit to wear lap swimming at the local aquatic center that would maintain its fit getting out of the pool. I particularly appreciated the breast support, it is excellent for a large busted woman. For this 72 year lady, I really like the conservative cut. I gave the suit a 4 star rating because it did fade noticeably after the first use but not since. It still is attractive and holds its shape.

Nice material, but the leg openings were too tight. Not comfortable. Unfortunately, I decided to return it. Zappos return was quick and painless as expected!

Love the fit and wear for water aerobics but this suit fades terribly in the swimming pool, even though I rinse it in cold water after swimming. The first one I bought had a rip on the side, and Zappos gladly sent me another one.

The bottom of the suit gaps at the base of my butt. The left is very noticeable. The soft cups are not removable. The leg openings are as pictured, except for the gapping.

The elastic around the thigh really cuts in. Bad design unless you have bird legs. And the inserts are not removable if you don't want added bust too bad.

I am a 34D and could not fill this suit. That almost never happens. Fabric was not my favorite either.

For a "Speedo Brand" this suit was very 'thick' material! Did not fit like my usual Speedos (same size) from sporting goods stores (over 20 yrs now) I have rotten luck with mail orders. :-(

Not comfortable. I bought a 14. I'm 5'9", 178 lbs, and swim a mile twice a week. I'm used to the fit of racing suits, but at 58 I am no longer comfortable wearing keyhole racing suits. This straps are too long, and the looseness of the straps is a problem I have with my current suit, and was hoping to avoid with this one. The leg holes are strangely uncomfortable, a problem I've never had with any other suit, and I've worn a lot. The soft bra inserts are sewn into the suit, so cannot be removed. Because the suit is long, the shelf bra doesn't do much good anyways.

I had been very satisfied with Speedo swimsuits for years and am now disappointed with the poor quality and size. Size 14 is huge and extremely long. I have worn size 14 for years and the fit was perfect. I had to return. I hope Speedo brings back great swimsuits. Willing to try again.

Sorry to say the fit is terrible for me. I have what would be an apple body. It was way too big in the bust, maybe a D or DD would fill it out. The stomach area was too tight but the butt was too big. The leg cut was nice as it was not high cut.

This suit fits strange. I found the bust to be too large, the stomach area to be too tight and the butt area to be too large.

If you plan on never wearing this suit in water, this is the one for you! It looks and feels great, however, the suit immediately begins to disintegrate upon using it in a swimming pool. I couldn't have been more disappointed than I was with this suit. Obviously, this suit is not meant for swimmers.

Not for an hour-glass shape. It fit me really, really tight around the thighs, and there was a lot of room left in the chest. If you're curvy, with an hour-glass shape, or a pear shape, with more flesh on the bottom than on the top, this is not for you. I'm returning it.

Great looking suit but absolutely NOT a good choice if you swim every day. This suit falls apart almost immediately. I'm writing Speedo as soon as I finish this review. If you don't plan on wearing this suit in the water, I'm certain you will be fine. It fits and looks great as long as you stay out of the water.

I am so sad to have to return this suit. The color and fit are lovely. Until you reach the bust. The sides were positively floppy! And (humblebrag) I am well endowed, but I could not fill the top. Major side boob, just trying it on. I did not both swimming in it because I do not enjoy flashing people. It is a truly bizarre fit. I continue my search.
