FAQs
What material is the Aceana Bikini Short made from?
It's primarily made from 85% polyester and 15% elastane, ensuring a comfortable stretch and quick-drying properties. Some variants may include 51% polyester/33% polyamide/16% elastane seersucker stripe fabric.
Does this bikini short offer sun protection?
Yes, the fabric is treated with UV Protection (UPF) of 50+, offering excellent protection against harmful UV rays.
How should I wash my bikini short to keep it in good condition?
For best results, hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent immediately after use. Rinse thoroughly to remove chlorine or saltwater, and then air dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry or iron.
Is this suitable for swimming in chlorine pools or saltwater?
Yes, it is designed for both, but it's crucial to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after exposure to chlorine or saltwater to maintain fabric integrity and color.
Can I buy a matching top for this bikini short?
The Aceana Bikini Short is sold as a bottom piece. While specific matching tops might be available from Regatta, it is also designed to be versatile and can be paired with a wide range of complementary bikini tops.
What does 'sits above the hip and cover the bottom' mean for the fit?
This describes a comfortable, flattering fit where the waistband rests just above your natural hip line, providing ample and secure coverage for the rear, offering both comfort and confidence.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stretched out or has lost elasticity
This usually occurs due to improper care. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly after use and hand washing in cold water. Avoid high heat during drying, as it can damage the elastane fibers. If the damage is extensive, it may be due to prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive heat.
Print is fading or colors appear dull
Fading can happen with sun exposure and improper washing. Always rinse after use and wash with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and direct prolonged sunlight when drying. Ensure the product is not exposed to harsh pool chemicals for extended periods without rinsing.
Swimwear feels uncomfortable or causes chafing
Ensure you have the correct size. While the fabric is soft-touch, an incorrect size can lead to discomfort. Rinse thoroughly after use to remove salt or chlorine, which can irritate skin. If discomfort persists, consider skin sensitivity to the fabric or specific detergents.
