Troubleshooting
Swimsuit losing elasticity
Ensure the garment is rinsed thoroughly after each use to remove chlorine or salt. Avoid machine washing on high heat or tumble drying, as heat can degrade elastane.
Fading of colour
Rinse immediately after use and dry out of direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight which can cause colours to fade.
Tummy control panel feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The tummy control is designed to be snug; however, if it feels excessively restrictive, consider trying a size up. Make sure the garment is pulled up correctly to sit in the intended position.
Padded cups shifting
Ensure the swimsuit is the correct size and fits snugly. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by carefully repositioning the cups while the swimsuit is damp.
