FAQs

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart for apparel. Since these are bikini bottoms with adjustable ties, consider your typical size and hip measurement. The ties offer some flexibility.

Can I machine wash these bikini bottoms?

It is strongly recommended to hand wash only. Machine washing, especially with agitation and heat, can damage the fabric, embellishments, and the integrity of the stretch.

What activities are these bottoms best suited for?

These bottoms are ideal for lounging, sunbathing, swimming, and casual beachside activities like brunches or walks. The stretch fabric provides comfort for movement.

How do I care for the metallic bead detailing?

Avoid excessive rubbing or abrasive cleaners on the beads. Hand wash gently and ensure they are not caught on anything during washing or drying.

Can these be worn with any bikini top?

Yes, while designed to match the Karen Millen Ombre Bikini Top, they can be paired with solid-colored tops or other coordinating patterns for a versatile look.

Does the ombre pattern vary between products?

The ombre effect is designed to be unique on each piece due to the nature of the dyeing process, meaning your bottoms will have a slightly individual gradient.

Are these bottoms suitable for sports or high-impact activities?

While comfortable and adjustable, these bottoms are primarily designed for leisure and style rather than high-impact sports. The tie-side design may not be secure enough for vigorous activity.

Troubleshooting

Ties are difficult to adjust or secure

Ensure the fabric is dry when tying. If the beads are hindering the tie, try to position them to the side while securing the knot.

Color fading after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water only and using a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Fabric feels stretched out

Avoid machine washing, high heat drying, and harsh chemicals, as these can degrade the fabric's elasticity. Ensure proper hand-washing and flat-drying techniques are followed.
