I thought this tankini would have fit me well based on what it looked like in the photos on-line, but maybe I should have paid more attention to the word "compression" in the description. Also, the Carve Designs on-line size calculator says I am a size L. I love the purple color and crisscross straps in the back, but I feel like the fit on me was more like a size M than a size L. The bust part was OK. However, the part right below the bust was very long and extremely tight. My waist typically fits size large clothing, but I have a very short torso and size XL hips (hence very curvy). The tankini was very uncomfortable around my waist and of course was all bunched up on top of my hips. I have not had this experience with other Carve Designs swim wear tops (rash guards). Since I bought it on a Final Sale, I will now need to find a tall, skinny friend to gift it to.
