FAQs

What material is this swimsuit made of?

The swimsuit is made from a smooth woven fabric with stretch, incorporating linen. The exact composition is designed for comfort and movement.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to standard sizing charts for apparel. Given the ruched waist and stretch fabric, a good fit around the bust and hips is key. If between sizes, consider your preference for a snugger or more relaxed fit.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

It is strongly recommended to hand wash the swimsuit in cold water with a mild detergent to preserve its shape, fabric quality, and the delicate shell hardware. Machine washing may cause damage.

What is the best way to dry the swimsuit?

After rinsing, gently squeeze out excess water without wringing. Lay the swimsuit flat to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

Is the shell hardware durable?

The shell hardware is designed to be a refined detail. To maintain its appearance, rinse the suit thoroughly after use and avoid harsh chemicals.

What occasions is this swimsuit suitable for?

This swimsuit is ideal for poolside lounging, beach holidays, resort wear, and elegant coastal retreats. It can be styled for both daytime and casual evening wear.

Does the cut-out front offer adjustability?

The cut-out front is a design feature and does not typically offer adjustability. Its placement and style are fixed as part of the garment's design.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit losing shape after washing

Ensure you are hand washing in cold water and drying flat. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, or wringing the garment.

Shell hardware tarnished or damaged

Rinse the swimsuit thoroughly after use, especially after contact with chlorine or saltwater. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods on the hardware.

Fabric feels stiff or rough

This may be due to improper rinsing or drying. Ensure all detergent is removed and the suit is dried flat away from direct heat. For linen blends, a gentle steam can help restore softness.

Color fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when wet or drying. Always dry the swimsuit flat in the shade and store it away from direct light.
