Love these bottoms! I have been into hipster/boyshort bottoms for the past few years, but felt it was time to go back to a more traditional shape this year; however, I wanted something that would give me a little more coverage in the back. I am an hourglass shape, and have wider hips, about 37 inches. Based on the seafolly size chart, I ordered a US6/AUS10. However, they were just tiny bit too tight, causing a slight muffin top on my hip (not a normal occurrence for me) so I ordered the US8/AUS12 and they're perfect! Based on this, I would suggest ordering one size larger than the seafolly chart indicates and eat your pride on the size number. I generally wear a 4/6/small so they certainly run small. The indigo blue is a really nice color and I'll be matching them with some fun printed tops. Just ordered them in black as well!

Perfect full coverage bottom! Quality fabric & so comfortable too! I usually wear a US size 6 in pants, so I upsized to the US 10 (AU 14) on the advice from previous reviews. I probably would have fit in the US 8 (AU 12) just fine, but I will be keeping this pair, as I tend to fluctuate in weight sometimes, and they are very comfortable as is. I have not yet worn them in the water, and I am hoping they won't stretch out when wet. Overall, this is a no brainer purchase! It is SO hard to find good, comfy bikini bottoms that don't show half your butt cheeks. They are definitely worth the $$. You won't be sorry! Just be sure to size up at least one, if not two sizes larger that what you normally wear.

This is a comfy suit bottom. I wish the Indigo color matched my Seafolly tankini top better, but overall, it's a flattering suit with good coverage. I wear either 27 or 28 pants, and found both the sizes 8 and the 10 were wearable. Seafolly runs small. The twisted front covers well. Will see if the extra material drags the bottom down once it stretches out. I kept the ten, but concerned it might be loose in the ocean or with a dive. More will be revealed...

Tried this on in the ice color, which was very pretty. Liked it a fair amt but ended up going w/something w/ a little less caboose coverage. However, if you want a very comfortable, stylish swimsuit bottom that does provide more coverage, this is it. Going by other reviews of this brand, I went w/ the 14/US10 size. I'm 5'4", about 140 lbs and have a fairly well-endowed tush, and it fit perfectly.

I listened to the other reviewers and purchased a size 12 (US 8) even though I am normally a size 4-6. Fit was great. I am 5'5", 125 pds.

I always wear a US size 8 in swimwear. I’m 5’ 3 1/2”, weigh 124 lbs, 36c bra and over age 50. This Seafolly bottom fit perfectly and was well made. The bottom stays in place and provides full coverage without lookin frumpy at all. The criss cross in the front is slimming and does not create a muffin top. It does not show up well in the black but is great in other colors. I tried dozens of bottoms and this is the only one that looks great! I did not care for the Seafolly bikini tops but had no trouble finding others that fit a full 36c.

Love this bottom! I’ve been a big fan of Seafolly for several years now and this twist bottom is hands down the best bottom for curvier gals. It goes up just high enough and with a slightly looser band so no muffin top from your tummy. I just repurchased in a size larger than my other ones because I had a baby and need a bit extra room. No issues with being loose in the water or losing shape. AND they are marked down right now- no reason to hesitate this purchase!

First swimsuit bottom that didn’t hug so tight on my hips that I ended up with a muffin top. Loved these

Love these bottoms! I have them in two colors. The twist is just enough to cover the little sag at the bottom of my belly to make the whole torso look a little smoother, without needing a high waisted version . Minimizes any muffin top effect (which was an issue when i tried on the higher waist version). Super comfortable. Doesn't ride up and doesn't make you feel overly exposed on the backside.

These are my favorite swim suit bottoms and I purchased the exact style in 4 different colors. I am 5'3" tall, 125 pounds and wear a size 6 in most pant bottoms(38" hips). I am in my late 40's and although I am in decent shape(for now), I have a slight muffin top around my hips and this bottom hides it perfectly providing you order a size(or 2) up. I never thought that I would ever wear a size 12 or 14 in any type of bottom but I ordered this size(after I ordered a 10 which was too tight and my muffin top hung out) and the bottoms not only hide and minimize the muffin top, it also is very flattering around the belly area. I highly recommend these bottoms for anyone and everyone. I am very hard on myself(like most woman are) and I feel very comfortable in this bottom. It is very stylish and well made too!

This is that perfect go to black bottom! The style is flattering and the coverage on the back is perfect, never riding up at the beach. I'm an 8/10 and went with the large US10 which was perfect, the medium would have been to tight. The material is a great quality, I highly recommend this cute, simple style.

Just enough coverage. They do not ride up which is always welcome. The color is perfect I can switch between several of my tankini tops and they all match. You want to order up a size because the leg holes are snug.

Great fit and beautiful color. And as always, the Zappos customer service is stellar. I was a little unsure about buying a bathing suit online, but trying it on at home and being able to send back what I don't want has made me a believer!

Love this one! I normally wear a size 10, but I ordered a size 12. A little lower in the front than what I was expecting but it looks and fits great! The only frustration is the panty liner protection strip! it didn't peel off like the others but instead left a ton of the sticky glue on the fabric. I'm still trying to get it out of the material! But other than that, perfect!

These bikini bottoms have good coverage in the back. The twist in the front seems to be flattering on my athletic frame. I'm a 39 year old mother of 2 little girls and feel comfortable wearing these to the neighborhood pool. And my husband thinks they look hot. :-)

Finally a swimsuit bottom with a little modesty in the rear! It did seem to run a bit small so I ended up ordering a size larger, but the fit is very comfortable and feels secure. Quality fabric and construction so I know I don't have to worry about how it will hold up. I loathe swimsuit shopping so it was refreshing to find one that is fun and unique, but still feels classy and sophisticated! I bought these bottoms to go with the Seafolly Goddess Twist Bandeau and I couldn't be happier.

This is the second color I have purchased of this bikini bottom, I like it that much! The material is great and I like the coverage in the back, while the front gives it a little something of interest. I am usually a 4, but I wear an 8 in this, FYI.

Extremely well made, durable and cute. I can't wait to wear this suit! I am 5'7", 120 and the size 10 was perfect. I have no butt, and this will definitely stay in place!
