I stupidly left without the suit (since I hadn&#8217;t gone in looking for a swimsuit, I was wary of buying one on impulse), went back the next day to buy it, and it was gone. But I ordered it online and it arrived just in time for the beach! The fabric is nice and thick and as smooth as a seal! I would recommend sizing up at least one size, as this swimwear tends to run a bit small.<\/p>\n<p>The only thing to keep in mind is that there is no shelf bra, so if you&#8217;re larger on top, you might be more comfortable with a bikini top on underneath.<\/p>\n<p>I also got <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopbop.com\/trespalmas-top-seea\/vp\/v=1\/1556902431.htm?folderID=2534374302208710&amp;fm=other-shopbysize&amp;os=false&amp;colorId=22625\" target=\"_blank\">this top<\/a> to wear with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopbop.com\/marilyn-bottom-lspace\/vp\/v=1\/1546676798.htm?folderID=2534374302166571&amp;fm=hearts-shopbysize&amp;os=false&amp;navFolderId=2534374302166539\" target=\"_blank\">high-waisted retro bikini bottoms<\/a> and I LOVE it! Same fabric, same coverage, same comfort. I took my regular size in this one and it fit perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>What I love is the unique pattern and cut of the swimsuit. It is also very comfortable, and I appreciate that it has a lot more coverage on the chest &#8212; a place I tend to get too much sun, even when wearing loads of sunscreen.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lei_bySeea_fridaOnePiece_04\" href=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7691\/27186926640_ccc7fa4831_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Lei_bySeea_fridaOnePiece_04\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7691\/27186926640_570155ccd0_h.jpg\" alt=\"Lei_bySeea_fridaOnePiece_04\" width=\"938\" height=\"1600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is another style I love &#8212; black is so classic.\u00a0<a title=\"Seea_SP15_Zuma_One_Piece_Burgandy_01_new_grande\" href=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7503\/27186925960_a1db6510a1_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Seea_SP15_Zuma_One_Piece_Burgandy_01_new_grande\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7503\/27186925960_a1db6510a1_z.jpg\" alt=\"Seea_SP15_Zuma_One_Piece_Burgandy_01_new_grande\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8230; And this was my first choice; unfortunately it was all sold out.

I get all kinds of women asking me where I got it! It&#8217;s so flattering for all body types and the color has not faded one bit, which is really nice. There&#8217;s also plenty of support in the bra area for larger chests (not me, but I do like a little lift).
