    Comments about Boden Women Retro Swimsuit:

    I agree with the other reviews this swimsuit is too short in the bodice, but it's sooooo cute on, I just ordered a size up, then took in the side seams. It's that great of a suit! A couple of adustments later, and it's darling!

      Comments about Boden Women Retro Swimsuit:

      I measured myself and ordered the size that was just about perfect, which was a 4. After I FINALLY got the swimsuit it was so short, it seemed like it was built for a midget! Everything fit perfectly but the length from the bottom of my bust to the bottom was tiny! And I'm 5' 6" so I'm not super tall, either. So I returned it and I ordered a size up to a 6, and it was still a an inch or two too short. But I could see that if I sized up again to an 8 it would be too big in the bust and too baggy. I'm not a skinny little stick, and I'm not super tall, so I was pretty disappointed in this swimsuit. Which is a shame because it's adorable, the quality was good, and the price was perfect :(

        I love this bathing suit. It is very flattering on me. I am only 5' 2" so, I didn't think the suit was too short as others thought.

            Based on the catalog description of a snug fit, I ordered one size up. I am tall (5'10") and found the suit to be too short-waisted so had to return it. If that were not the case my usual size (and therefore a more snug fit) would have been better. Nice fabric and style.

                Comments about Boden Women Retro Swimsuit:

                It is an adorable suite. The only complaint I have is that it is very short waisted. I am 5'5 and it is too short in the torso area. I wouldn't recommend for anyone who is very tall or long waisted.

                  I feel that the neck is flattering yet supportive. It is a modest fit and flattering to my body type yet fashionable.

                    Comments about Boden Women Retro Swimsuit:

                    I really love this suit! I first ordered it in the 4 and had to size up to a 6. I was worried about how this suit would fit in the bust, I don't have much to work with and was worried that a suit without underwire would do nothing to enhance the area. This suit has *light* padding and side boning, which helps us small girls!

                    The front of the suit is lined in a mesh. The mesh seems to strech out a bit with wear, but the suit fabric has not. Doesn't cause any noticeable problems, just feels a bit off.

                    I ordered the green apple and the color was just as pictured. Really love this suit.

                      I am not long waisted or shortwaisted, so the length fit just right. I could have gone a size smaller than I normally do and it would have been fine.

                      This is a really cute bathing suit and it's also very flattering. I'm 5'5" very short-waisted, and very pear shaped. I like how this suit brings your eye up to the chest with the V-neck halter and bow. I can see for taller women it would easily be too short, but it fits my body shape great.
