I was expecting more bust support at this cost level - the suit did not deliver.
I wish this came in more colors!

I love the way this suit feels and fits and being a size 14, its very slimming in all the right places. The only drawback is because of the material, the gold tends to itch around the neck, but its worth the little discomfort!!!

This suit is gorgeous. My only problem is that the metallic fabric is a little scratchy on the shoulders. I'm thinking that the JL sizes run just a tad smaller than the other brands, but all in all, this was a great buy. I'm saving it to wear to a hot tub party. Very flattering and the brown color is perfect.

This is a pretty swimsuit. It is very slimming, too. The gold metallic material on top is scratchy which is a contrast to the soft material on the bottom. I feel it when I put the suit on and my kids feel it when I carry them or they snuggle next to me. This is the only "con" and was not enough to send it back! :-)

I liked the look of the swimsuit and it was attractive on. However for tanning the criss-cross in the back is rather large and the material was a bit scratchy.

I bought this swimsuit for a trip I am going on this month. Normally, I don't purchase swimwear because few are flattering to my figure.
However this suit covers what it needs to without making you look frumpy. In fact, I felt sexy when I tried it on! I can't wait to wear it to the beach.
The one thing that I was pleasantly by is the gold is an irridesent gold and not merely a yellow gold color. And the skirt covers my thighs to just about mid-thigh.
I think anyone that gets this will be very pleased!

This is a lovely suit. It does have a shimmery effect on the top but all in all I love it. It is very stylish and covers well without being dowdy. My husband thought it was very nice and attractive.

Love the suit. Only thing I wasn't expecting was the metallic type look to the top but that would most likely be my own fault. Fits great, looks great, quality is very nice and my husband who normally never comments about this plus size body in a bathing suit said it looks good one me.

It's a great swim suit for women who don't want to wear the same thing everyone else has on. The top is really shiny, so if you have a bigger cup size it will only enhance them... Also, if you are taller, go up a size because it tends to be a little short. [...]another venue.

The "gold" on this was shinier than I expected and looks very expensive and rich and great with a tan. The skirt is well cut to cover flaws (even bad ones!) but not so long as to look old lady-ish. Good bust support if you need it like me. For the price this is one of the best made, best looking suits I could find and I am glad I purchased it.

We have a backyard pool and lots of company. I feel very comfortable walking around the pool in this suit-the skirt length is perfect-and the suit itself doesn't ride up! I love it!

This swimsuit was much better than I expected. The fabric is excellent quality and the fit is great. It's the first swimsuit I've put on in a long time that is comfortable and stylish at the same time. I haven't had occasion to wear it yet, but I'm looking forward to my first day on the beach.

Love the style, but disliked the fit. Swimsuit fits smaller than expected below the bust line. This may not be the same for other body types.
