Customer Rating: Summary: Feminine swimsuit; as flirty as a skirted suit can get! Comment: Aside from being pretty and likely an easy "fit" for most body types, this suit is good quality and provides excellent lower body coverage while providing a tastefully sexy bust/neck line. Because of the empire-waist-esque design, my midsection and hips seem to be camouflaged under the feminine overlay. I was happy to discover this swimsuit is fully lined which speaks to the value of this purchase. It is a flattering length for me as well(I'm 5.8" tall, size 18, slightly pear shaped). My only complaint is the lack of colour choices. I have daringly ordered the white however and I love it! Customer Rating: Summary: I LOVE IT AND GETTING ANOTHER ONE! Comment: I GOT THIS IN BLACK LAST YEAR before my Maui vacation. Got it FOR only $14!! IT'S ON SALE NOW BUT IT'S $39. But the price is still worth it. It has a great A-line style for hiding a pear-shaped figure and for those w/ big thighs. It holds everything in and hides away flaws. I just love it. Only problem is the shelf-bra is not very durable so it tore. That's why I'm investing in 2 - I'm getting it in Dark Espresso (only because they are out of Black) and Olive. DO NOT GET THE WHITE!! Customer Rating: Summary: Love it! Comment: I bought this with the desire to hide flaws and it worked! I love this suit and the 2 others I have from newport news. They are made well and are fully lined. Customer Rating: Summary: wife loves it Comment: I bought this last summer and love it. I originally got the white, but it was see thru so I exchanged it for the olive. Its a wonderful 1 piece with a great stomach panel for holding in any extra you have in the middle. Very flattering and comfortable. I get tons of compliments on this suit!
(written by goofygrin's wife) Customer Rating: Summary: Cute, but needs improvement Comment: I purchased this swimdress last year because it looked SO cute in the magazine! However, I was really disappointed when I got it. Just a little advice... do not buy this in WHITE. It is very thin & shows EVERYTHING when wet. It comes with bottoms (not attached) and they are very obvious when wet. :( Also, this swimdress only has a shelf bra - no padding whatsoever. Just fyi. So, needless to say - white is not a good choice of color for this particular swimdress. I thought there would be more of a lining with white swimsuits nowadays. Guess I was wrong! lol. Anyways, I returned the swimdress & considered ordering another color...but the lack of padding was a big deal to me. I didn't want to pay $40 for a swimsuit that I would have to "fix". I decided to purchase 2 other swimdresses from Newport News which I LOVE and are perfect for me! :)
