Yes, the hammered effect gold-colored ring detail is designed not to heat up in the sun.
What does 'gathered cups' mean?
Gathered cups refer to the fabric being ruched or pleated in the center, which helps to flatter all bust shapes and create a smooth silhouette.

What is the material of the bikini top?
The primary material is Nylon, with powernet lining in the wings for support. Specific care instructions should be followed to maintain the material's integrity.

Troubleshooting
Straps not staying in place
Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly to your comfort and securely fastened. If slippage persists, check that the fabric is not overly stretched.
Discoloration of fabric or ring
This can occur due to prolonged exposure to chlorine, salt water, or direct sunlight without proper rinsing. Always rinse thoroughly with cold water after use and dry flat away from direct sunlight.
Loss of elasticity
Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, and harsh detergents, as these can degrade the fabric's elasticity over time. Adhere to hand-washing instructions.
Gathering appears uneven
Ensure the garment is laid flat and smoothed out when drying. The gathering is a design feature and should naturally flatter the bust shape when worn.
