Swimwear Solutions
Our swimwear collection is focused on the three F’s
Functional
Fashionable
Figure-Flattering
The majority of our styles are one-piece designs, selected to enhance hard to fit figures, (in other words: ‘real’ women!). We source the best swimwear brands from around the world, such as Maryan Mehlhorn, Lidea and Gottex, to find suits that support and flatter larger busts, address tummy concerns and offer moderate coverage that’s stylish and comfortable. Fabrics that feature a high lycra content are an important feature which improves the fit of the suits and makes them long wearing.
How to buy the perfect bathing suit
- Set the stage...Give yourself every advantage to look and feel your best the day you go shopping. Consider applying sunless tanner, shave, do your hair and makeup. If you arrive in a positive mood you’ll be able to concentrate on the assets of each bathing suit and your own!
- Don’t rush...Relax and allow yourself enough time (minimum ½ hour) to spend on this important task.
- Keep an open mind...Try not to arrive with any preconceived ideas. Let the fitting expert suggest the best size, style and color. Often women are surprised by a suit they would never have selected themselves.
- Go it alone...Bathing suit shopping, when done right, requires your full concentration. It’s easy to be distracted by opinions that are not your own. (Unless you have someone whose opinion you totally trust and you can rely on their guidance).
- Think of buying jeans...It’s always best to buy a suit that’s a little snug. Given the elements such as hot weather, body heat and water, bathing suit fabric will always stretch!
Bathing Suit Care Tips
Help your swimwear look and fit better, longer with these important tips.
- Avoid getting sunscreen on fabrics.
- Gently hand wash after every wear in a mild detergent to remove chlorine, sand, sun and perspiration.
- Let air dry out of the sun.
- Like a bra, your swimsuit will last longer and fit better if you alternate suits, giving each a chance to come back into shape.
