The ladies will chime in on this as well, but if you are indeed going to order off the rack so to speak, I would go with the larger of the sizes for several reasons: 1. a little loose is better than tight, especially in the chest-easier to breath underwater is always a good thing. 2. It allows for a little weight gain without comprimising fit.

If I were to prioritize your measurements for fit, I would go Chest=>Hips=>Waist=>Weight=>Height. The height will dictate more on the length of the ninseam and can either be modified/altered or just pulled up a little.

A lot also depends on your choice of thickness: a 3mm is a lot more forgiving than a 7mm
