Ashford Side to Side Performance Jumpsuit

Great for yoga. Use it for yoga and hot yoga. It breathes well. Love that I no longer have to battle with my pants after a few flows! The high neckline is modest and doesn't gap. Good coverage. I purchased two and so far and they are standing up well to repeated washings. Doesn't provide much support up top, so a big bust will need extra support. Fit is true to size. I sized up thinking it ran small, but it didn't. I am 5 foot 2 and it comes down to my ankles with a little slouching. Not so long that I needed to hem, and the extra bit makes it so that they don't ride up during practice.

I was grateful and elated to find this piece here after having searched far and wide online — I had spotted it on a local contemporary dance teacher and had wanted one of my own for months. The streamlined, high-necked design (the vertical seams are flattering and elongating) reminds me of ballet/contemporary unitards and longline swimwear, and I like wearing this as-is or layered with a T-shirt tied at the waist or crop top for yoga or Afro-Latin dance class. The material is lightweight (it feels like you’re wearing nothing), and since the style runs big, if you want more support, order a size down. (The XS fits great — I am 5’ with a 34C bust and 27.5” waist.) For even more support, wear a sports bra. My only qualms are that there is no gusset in the crotch, and there is also no zipper or clasp, so getting in and out of the suit takes finessing, and I hope that careful use will help the neck straps remain at their original elasticity.
