FAQs
What does UV50+ protection mean?
UV50+ protection indicates that the fabric blocks at least 98% of harmful UV radiation, offering excellent sun protection for the skin covered by the swimsuit.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While the swimsuit offers a comfortable and stretchy fit, it is primarily designed for leisure activities. For competitive swimming, specialized performance swimwear might be more appropriate.
Can I machine wash this swimsuit?
Yes, you can machine wash the swimsuit on a delicate cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. However, hand washing is often recommended for longevity.
Does the tummy control panel add bulk?
The tummy control panel is designed to smooth and flatter the mid-section without adding bulk. It uses the fabric's structure to create a more streamlined appearance.
Are the cups in this swimsuit removable?
The product description mentions padded cups, but does not specify if they are removable. It's best to assume they are integrated for shaping and support.
What is the fabric composition?
The main fabric is an 85% polyester and 15% elastane blend. Some striped variants also incorporate 51% polyester, 33% polyamide, and 16% elastane seersucker stripe fabric.
Where can I find matching summer hats?
The product information mentions that matching summer hats are available. You can look for the product code RWC187 to find the coordinating hats.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the Regatta size guide. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a larger size.
Color fading after a few uses.
Always rinse the swimsuit in cold, fresh water immediately after use. Follow the washing instructions carefully, using mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals or prolonged sun exposure during drying.
Stretchiness seems to be lost.
Avoid overstretching the fabric when putting on or taking off. Ensure proper drying methods are used to maintain the elastane fibers' integrity. Avoid high temperatures during washing and drying.
