Boatneck swim dress (floral, light blue gingham and black polka dot)

Okayyy 1) I’m 5’7”, 130lbs always between a small and medium in everything and the small in this style fits great. 2) I emailed customer service before purchasing the first time and they were truly amazing, very helpful, very ‘real’ and personable, and very quick to respond. 3) I think this is the most flattering swimsuit I’ve ever worn, and I’ve even been very into all the swim skirts for years now, but the dresses are sooo slimming that they now take the spot of my favorite suits. 4) the polka dot one is the one I got first and it’s perfection, highly recommend I have nothing bad to say at all. 5) because I loved that one so much, I got the floral and light blue gingham when they were on sale and they’re beautiful and fit just as well HOWEVER.. I have one huge issue with both of these that is so glaring I honestly might not have bought them had I known.. the bottom underneath the skirt on both of these is solid white. As in, they didn’t continue the floral print or the gingham, so when someone inevitably catches a tiny peak underneath that skirt, it looks like I’m wearing white underwear underneath a very very short dress. And I’m pretty sure it didn’t show that in the pictures? Maybe it did and I overlooked it, but in real life I have to say it is a major major design flaw. If the material had been patterned the same on the bottoms these suits would be literally perfect. I think it looks especially out of place with the floral one. I’m honestly super sad because I cannot express how perfect these are otherwise 🥲 All in all, I absolutely will still wear all of these and feel very very cute in them, but I will probably always choose the polka dot one for when we swim around groups of people.

Almost perfect

Love the coverage, length, style. So cute. I am 5’3” and 105lb with curves on the bottom and the xs fit well for a one piece. But I give it 3.5 stars rounded up because:

1. The color is NOT like the photo. It’s definitely bright teal, not pale cornflower blue.

2. I wish the bottoms were shorts instead of BRIGHT WHITE briefs: it seriously gives diaper vibes and if you’re swimming, it drifts up and BAM. Big bright white diaper bottom beacon.

3. The sewn in cups are LOW. I mean. LOW. I’ve had two kids. I’m not super perky but man. The bust is big so it has no support and the cups are still about 2-3” too low. Love that they’re sewn in though. I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t sew them in.

That being said. When I wore it, I got a lot of compliments for how cute it is and I loved how practical it is as a one piece! The bottom is hemmed, it seems like it is nice quality that will hopefully hold up for a couple years. I kept it despite the above.

So cute!

As a boy mom, I needed a swimsuit that I can run around in and not be afraid one of my kids is going to hang onto a strap and pull my suit off. I was skeptical but wanted to try this style. I’m 5’8 and wear a 10/12 with a longer torso so one pieces don’t always work for me. This suit is fabulous! This is a size large. The shorts especially are really well made and aren’t tight around the thigh. I would like a little bit more bra support, but this one is sufficient and I’m not flopping around or anything. I just probably wouldn’t want to run in it. Overall, I’m very pleased.

So cute

I love this swimsuit. I am not usually a one-piece swimsuit person. I usually prefer a full coverage skirt and cropped tankini but I kept reaching for this over and over this summer instead. One and done and super cute while being totally appropriate and modest. I still felt fashionable and comfortable. I would prefer shorts underneath vs the built in brief. The color is not quite as cornflower blue as the photos. It is more like teal. Also the built-in cups are a little lower than normal anatomy. And I have had 2 kids and am 38…so it’s not like things are perky anymore. I ordered the XS and am pretty petite. It fits me well! The built-in bra could be tighter but overall, it fits well and you can’t tell (other than being a little low on my chest lol).

This swimsuit is so comfortable and great quality. I love how it hugs my body on all of the right parts to give an amazing shape. It fits my torso perfectly. The sewn-in bra is genius! The colors have not faded and there is no pilling despite wearing in pools and at the beach! I ended up buying all of the designs in the swim dress because I love it so much! (My daughter did say I looked like a Bath and Body Works bag…I still love it 🤣)

Amazing swimsuit. It is so comfortable! The swimsuit fits my torso perfectly. The colors have not faded and no pilling. The sewn-in bra is the best part.

I would probably give this swimsuit dress 3.5 stars. First off, the fit is a little weird. I am a size 6/8, and decided to get the large, but it was still a little bit too tight. I also don’t like how low down the back is. I am 5’6 and the swimsuits falls about 5 inches above my knee, which is decent. The blue color is a lot brighter than shown in the picture, which somehow makes it look a little cheaper looking. The biggest downfall is probably the price. I do understand that it’s a small business, however, I feel that it is steep.

Not my fav

Bought because I love the pattern. The neckline is uncomfortable high and was tight across my throat. I wear a 32ddd and the swoop neck in the back gave zero support for my girls in the front. The combo made the cut feel unbalanced to wear.

I love it! It has amazing tummy control. I love how confident I feel in it.

disappointed

This suit is not for new moms. I have many Lime Ricki suits that fit me PERFECTLY and that’s why I bought this. This one is super tight around the stomach and does NOT fit right up top. I wish I got the one piece I already have in a different color.

The best swimsuit

I am so happy gave this company a chance when I saw their adds. This is the second swimsuit I have gotten from them. My favorite part is the fact that the bra pads are sewn in. And it is modest, the bottom is full coverage.

Feminine and flattering

I receive a lot of compliments whenever I wear this swimsuit. It’s so unique with such a fun design. It fit true to size for me and I can’t recommend it enough.

Cutest swimsuit ever

The print is high quality, the fit is a dream, I love the high neck coverage (less sunscreen needed), and the sewn in cups are everything you’ve been looking for.

Love this suit. Not matronly but comfortable and helps cover some skin from the sun.

Retro vibes

Love this swim dress! I’m 5’6” 170lb and size large fits me perfectly.

This suit is adorable, fits well and lots of coverage without looking dowdy. I would have liked a tad more coverage on the back, maybe another inch or so higher.

This is so flattering! I love that it has the coverage I like but without being frumpy. 10/10 so cute! I hope they make this style in more colors/prints

Beautiful, a bit tight

Dress is as beautiful as it looked on the website! This is my first Lime Ricki dress, so I don't know how they usually fit, but my measurements were completely within the "XS" size range and yet, while I can pull it on, it is quite tight. Especially hard to pull up over my hips (again, by the size guide, XS should fit perfectly). Hence only 4 stars.

Fantastic! Highly recommend.

Xxs does have padding

Adorable on my 10 year old and she should get at least 2 years of wear with the adjustable straps. The xxs fits like a generous 10/12 but ours does have padding like the adult sizes. This is fine for us but sharing for others to be aware.

No pulling or tugging!

I can't gush enough about my love for this suit. There is enough coverage everywhere so that you don't have to constantly be pulling and tugging it back into place. It allowed me to just have fun and be in the moment with my kids at the beach, instead of self conscious about what might be popping out. It's super easy to get on and off and incredibly flattering.

Perfect

This swimsuit is just what I’ve been looking for. Love the retro design. I’m super fair skinned so I love that this provides lots of sun coverage without looking frumpy. Also great for staying in place while keeping up with children at the beach and pool! Fits true to size for me - 5’6” 105 lb and XS was just right. Hope to see this suit it lots more bright fun colors!

Super cute! I love wearing it to the splash pad with my kids.
