FAQs

What is the primary material of the swimsuit?

The swimsuit is made from 85% Recycled Polyester and 15% Elastane, offering a blend of comfort, stretch, and sustainability.

Does this swimsuit offer sun protection?

Yes, it provides UPF 50+ protection, offering excellent defense against harmful UV rays.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Fully adjustable straps and non-wired padded cups allow for a customized fit. Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements. The tummy control panel is designed for a flattering, secure feel.

Can I wear this for active water sports?

While comfortable for general swimming and lounging, the non-wired design might offer limited support for high-impact water sports. It is best suited for pool days and beach activities.

How should I wash the swimsuit?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly in cold water after use and dry flat away from direct heat.

Is this swimsuit suitable for sensitive skin?

The fabric is designed for comfort, and the UPF 50+ protection is beneficial for skin safety. However, individual sensitivities may vary. Always rinse thoroughly after exposure to pool chemicals or saltwater.

What sizes are available?

This model is available in various UK women's sizes, including Size 16 as specified. Please check the product listing for the full range of available sizes.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If between sizes, consider sizing up due to the tummy control panel. Allow the fabric to stretch slightly with wear.

Straps are digging in or uncomfortable

Adjust the straps to a comfortable length. Ensure the padding is correctly positioned within the cups.

Color fading after a few washes

Always rinse the swimsuit immediately after use in cold water. Wash on a cold cycle with a mild detergent and avoid direct sunlight when drying. Do not bleach.

Elasticity of the fabric feels reduced

Avoid high-temperature washing and tumble drying, as heat can degrade elastane. Ensure the garment is dried flat and away from direct heat sources.
