Ok, coming out of ML lurking to post my "The Suit" picture. I am usually a 20 on top and 22 bottoms so joining the fatty club. I ordered the red dots in 2x and blue anchor in 3x. The 3x was way too loose on top (even for a 42DD) so exchanging so I can have one of each in he right size. Thanks for pointing me to this swimsuit, ML!
Here I am! I never thought I'd be posting a picture of myself on the internets in a swim suit.... I also posted over in the fatty thread. A second one in cherry print is on its way to me....
You look great in that suit. I think you should go swim somewhere. Or get a tan. Fantastic.
Thanks! I would absolutely love to...except we are having a snowstorm. At the rate we're going I may just have to wear my suit around the house

another lurker that drank the suit water. I don't have a full length mirror to take a picture but I'm an hour glass size 18 and it is very flattering. I got the 2x in black but will be ordering a print in 1x to be more fitting in the chest.
Another lurker. I got an XL, but think I need a large. It doesn't stay up well in the back. I think I'll keep this one & order the black/white striped one in a large.
Please excuse the dirty mirror and my awful thighs. I've been losing weight & have some extra skin down there now.
ETA: ok..... picture won't upload. I downloaded the app for this purpose. What am I doing wrong? Sent from my SCH-I405 using proboards

Lurker chiming in. I got the cherry suit in medium but while it looks ok, you ladies and your pics have convinced me to order the black and white polka dot in the small. It fits okay in M, but I feel like the small will lift the girls a bit more and give me more of the spanx effect. Long live the Suit!
I can't even believe I am doing this, but here I am in my 16/18 XL-glory. I am aware that I am likely one of the "this suit is not universally flattering" people, but it looks decent to me. I'll take what I can get. I am also ridiculously inept at taking iPhone pictures of myself and must use two hands.
Oh my goodness, the red polka dots are adorable! Maybe I'll return my red one and then order a red polka dots to go with my black one. I think it's very flattering on you. :]

Suit twins! I think we both look great! It takes some serious guts for girls in our size bracket to even go out in public in a swimsuit, much less post a picture on the freaking internet, so kudos to you!
Also, thanks @pixie. You know you look fab in the suit, the red polka dots would just serve to make you look even more so.
And just to round out this lovefest, everyone who posted pics looks good. There is no one in this thread (or any others) I would be ashamed to be with at the beach, pool, etc.
I'm finally done with the suit. I got my final black and white polka dot in a medium today so that completes my collection. I now have four, lol. Can't wait to wear them.
