I'm 37, 26, 39 and I got the 10, and it's a bit tight on the bum. But not vastly so.

Olive, I have ordered quite a few items from ReVamp over the years, including a swim suit. All of her things are very well made. She will also work with you as far as sizing goes. I'm not sure how she's doing it now, but it used to be that you could just email her and tell her how you want it to fit, rather than ordering just a straight up typical size. She is busier nowadays and I haven't ordered in a while so I'm not sure if it's still the same. Every thing I have from her is awesome, well made, and fits perfectly. She is well worth the money!! I would take a picture of me in the suit, but I was a size 2 when I ordered it, which I'm definitely not any more. Guess it's time for me to get a new one!! She also has a lot more options now than when I got mine. Oh, and if you're looking for a great pair of high wasted pants, hers are amazing!! (sorry nothing to do with swim wear but I just had to add that) Hemingway Jones has had a jacket made by her and it's also amazing. It used to be that you could contact her and tell her what you were looking for and she'd make it for you even if it wasn't in her catalog. Also, if you don't like her fabric options, you can send her your own. She won't find fabrics for you, but is, or at least was, willing to do any fabric if you find it on your own.

This a great suit for lounging next to the pool, but don't try to do any real swimming and for heaven's sake, don't even think about diving!

i have enough dysfunctional vintage suits (and if anyone wants a pink one it's still available in the classifieds ) - the EW is supposed to be useable!!
*leaves thread muttering and shaking head*
