Sizing Approximations
Our suits run small, we usually use "smalls" in the photographs. The size chart below is a very general approximation.
Remember a size 5 from one manufacturer may be different than another, therefore inches and lbs are more accurate. If you need help,
e-mail or type in the "comments section" the ht/wt and chest/waist/hips measurements in inches and lbs and we will help
determine the best size for the suits ordered. To measure hips uses a cloth tape measure around the widest part of the derrier,
hold as loose or tightly as you would want a suit to fit there.
*In the case of one pieces if your height doesn't fall into the categories below send a note in the "comments section" on your
order and we can add a third size for torso length - small, medium or large - being separate from your top and bottom measurements.
(For example: a large top w/ large bottom and small torso length)

Back Styles
(Photos below are general examples of the 3 main backstyles; different suits will differ slightly) |
String Back
Provides the least amount to no coverage, usually made of material of straps on hips, straps form a "Y" shape. |
Thong Back
Small amount of fabric forms a thick "T" shape in back, provides little to no real coverage, straps on hips vary.
|
Brazil Back
Fairly conservative coverage, shape is slender cut, with still enough fabric to keep in place. |
Halfback
Somewhat conservative coverage while somewhat revealing... in between... while flattering and hugging. |
Hot Shorts
Provides the most coverage, shape is boy cut and slightly revealing in back.
|
Ruched/Scrunch Back
Fairly conservative coverage, shape is slender cut like the brazil with shirring effect which helps give shape. |
