Charlotte,NC I followed the measurements in the description and ordered a medium when I got it, the fit was too tight. I could get it on but dancing in it-no. Go a size up from what you'd normally get, because I usually order a medium in leotard and this one i had to return and possibly reorder a large.

03/17/2016This leotard is extremely comfortable, but not practical for me. I'm 5'10 and 155 lbs, with a 34 DDD chest. My measurements fit the L to a tee, but i ordered an XL in this and its still too short. I either have to wear a black sports bra so that half of my chest doesn't fall out of this leo, or I have to CONSTANTLY pull up on it because the torso is at least three inches too short for me. It also is too loose around the waist and makes me look very box-like.
If you're shorter in the toros or an average sized bust this leotard is super comfy and would probably suit you better than it did me.

01/03/2016I'm in love with this leo! It gives good coverage and covers a sports bra if you wear one so it isn't awkward and sticking out. If you're looking for a leo GET THIS! You won't be disappointed!

11/24/2015I assumed (incorrectly) that this design would include a shelf bra at least. The racerback is very cool, but is still not quite the right shape to cover most of my sports bras if I were to wear one underneath. The fabric is so thin that even if I had smaller bra size, I still wouldn't trust not wearing something under. I really like the design, and it fit well (I'm usually a women's 6 and I ordered the XL) but I will be returning it for the quality.

06/22/2015I got this leo for a friend and she loves how it fits and said that it was very comfortable.
However for myself, the fit is just okay. I have other Natalie leotard's that fit better than this one.

03/26/2015Nice fabric, colors and sporty styling, but there is something really weird here. I'm 5'4 and short waisted, size 12, 34C ...and this leo turns into a wrestling singlet within a few minutes of barre. No kidding, the neckline is below my bust. I salvage it by wearing a black sports bra. Hope they revamp the neckline on this one.

02/28/2015I ordered the leo with the turquoise back. I love the little pop of color, but also the clean line in gives. I can also wear and conceal a bra. It does run a little small so whatever you do line dry this leo or it will shrink! I always have to wear a large in dance clothing because of my 63in torso length and being a 34C in the bust even though I am a size 4 in street clothing.

01/04/2015This is my favorite leotard! It is comfortable and easy to move in. Although the elastic in the back can be slightly annoying. It is very flattering and looks nice. Unlike most leotards you can comfortably wear a sports bra underneath while having all straps hidden. The sky blue is a very pretty color and looks nicely paired with the black body. It is over all a great leotard that has lasted through daily classes and many washes.

11/11/2014I am 36D and about average build. I'm not thin, but I'm not overweight. I ordered the XL, which is slightly baggy in my other Natalie leotard. This one was slightly smaller than it should be. I have to keep pulling up the front of the leotard, but I still show some cleavage anyway (I have a well-covered sports bra so I'm not worried about falling out. I just think it looks nicer to have full black in front. The crotch area isn't tight, but there isn't much fabric compared to my other Natalie leotard so there is more buttcheek showing in the back. The line of the leotard does look nice, but I'm not allowed to wear shorts or a skirt in class so I spend more time than usual pulling up the top and pulling down the bottom. Good durability and it looks pretty.

10/14/2014I love this leo and already got several compliments on it after only one class. It fits really well (I'm 5'4" 120ish pounds and I got a medium) and it covers a sports bra nicely. I only wish it was lined but when wearing a sports bra underneath, that's not a big issue.

07/26/2014I ordered this leotard simply because I like to hide my bra straps. It covers the straps very well, and the leotard is still holding up nicely after a years worth of classes (every day, 3-5 hours). It does run very small though. I am 5'3 and 90lbs and I normally wear a small, but the small in this leotard was way too small. It pulled in my straddle and it left indentations on my shoulders. Order a size up and you will be just fine! The sizing is the only reason I did not give this leotard 5 out of 5 stars!

07/18/2014I bought this leotard for my daughter. It fits well and she really likes the style. However, I will most likely return it as it is an adult leotard that is unlined and almost see through. How difficult or expensive would it be to line a basic leotard?

06/03/2014Read the comments on this page and decided to size up because everyone was saying how small it was. I am a M for Natalie leotards but when i bought L, it was SO loose. The bum and waist area was so loose and had so much extra baggage. An M would have been nice for this leotard. Also, do take note that this leotard is single layered! Would have been nice if i got this in a smaller size. I'm 5"5 and 110lbs for reference!

05/31/2014What I like:
COLOR: great pop of aqua blue
SIZING: I am nornally a SMALL (5'3 tall & 107 lbs) but, as Nathalie leotards tend to run small, and based on reviews, I ordered MEDIUM
FABRIC: nice cotton. Absorbs and breathes as only cotton can.
DESIGN: racer-back and cutout look are unique and eye-catching.
What I don't like:
Fabric/strap in front, under shoulders, by the armpits tends to bunch down, and squeezing so you get this unsightly flesh "fat roll" effect. I pulled up the fabric everytime it happened, and after a couple of times the fabric stayed put. So far so good.
I would order again. Note, order 1 size bigger.

05/21/2014Short and a little tight for my 5'3" 110lb daughter. Returned small to get a medium. She really likes it though. Got it for gymnastics class this summer.

03/07/2014As other reviewers said, this runs small. I ordered a large (I'm normally a medium-ish in Natalie) and it turned out to be REALLY short in the torso and way to baggy in the bum and waist.
Fabric felt ok, but the sizing was absurd. I will be returning this.
For reference, I'm about 5'7"- 5'8", and thin but busty. Did not fit me whatsoever.

02/07/2014Having read several reviews that said this leo runs small, I ordered an XL. It turned out to be baggy across the body but too short in the torso for me. For reference, I am 5'7.5" and about 135-138 lbs.

11/21/2013Great practical leotard. I ordered the blue and colour is true to picture.
Fits true to size. I'm 5'1 110 lbs and I ordered a small. Made out of cotton, but it's comfortable.

08/03/2013This leotard runs small and is made of cotton. This fabric is not mentioned in the description, so keep that in mind. Other than that, the racer back design is very convenient for sports bras!

07/16/2013I bought this leo for my 13 year old daughter. It was true to fit and out of the four we bought this was the only one that was not returned.

06/27/2013Reading the previous reviews I ordered a size up. I am sure glad I did! It fits perfectly except for the hole in the back. The fabric is loose right above the butt, it doesn't fit snug like the rest of the leotard.
Other than that it is a good leotard to buy. The fabric is very different though, and you will need to wear a sports bra with it, good thing it has a razor back!

06/18/2013This is one of my favorite leotards. I bought the black/turquoise in small and I am 5'6" and slender for my age. (14)
It is a bit tight all around but i fear the medium will be to large so I guess it's up for your opinion.
Overall though the leotard is very flattering and nice for a hard days work at class.

06/01/2013So, I have some other Natalie leos, and wanted try another. This one is really cute, and I really like the cut in front. I haven't had it as long as my other Natalie leo's, but based on their durability and what it looks like, I would say that it will hold up for a long time. I thought that it would be hard to get into, but it is not at all! I don't need to, but I am sure that if you had a bigger cup size you could easily pull off a sports bra underneaththe leo. I am 5'5, 105lbs, and a small fits great.

03/29/2013I love this leo! Its really cute and covers my sports bra nicely. It also shows nice back muscle and when I wear it my ballet teacher comments on how much she likes that style. Overall, It's a great buy.

11/08/2012Although I love the style of this leotard and it is extremely flattering, I have to say that it runs awfully short. I'm 5'5 and 105 pounds with an average torso and small bust so I ordered a small, but the straps put an unbearable amount of pressure on my shoulders because it is short; width-wise, it fits just fine.
The good news is the leo seems very durable. Bad news is, well... it won't stretch out. Time for an alteration.

01/16/2012This leotard is great! It has a great fit and is the best leotard if you like to wear a sportsbra because it completely covers the bra and still has great lines. I have 3 of them now and always get compliments on them.

Pennsylvania,The fabric does not stretch easily and is low cut in the back. It is an overall decent leotard.
