FAQs

Can I wear this swimsuit in a chlorinated pool?

Yes, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh, cold water immediately after swimming to remove chlorine and prevent fabric degradation.

Is the fabric see-through when wet?

The garment is designed with quality materials to provide adequate coverage, though as with all light-colored swimwear, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy water flow.

Does the gold-tone hardware get hot in the sun?

Like any metal accessory, the hardware can absorb heat. It is advised to keep the swimsuit in the shade if you are lounging in direct, intense sunlight for long periods.

How do I choose the right size?

The swimsuit follows standard sizing; however, given the plunge front and backless design, ensure you select your usual size to maintain the intended fit of the ruched waist.

Can this be worn as a top for a night out?

Absolutely. The Orchid Print Plunge design is highly versatile. Pairing it with tailored wide-leg trousers and jewelry creates an excellent evening look.

How should I store it for the winter?

Clean and dry it completely before storing in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dark place to preserve the linen blend and the gold hardware.

Troubleshooting

Hardware losing its shine

Gently wipe the gold-tone hardware with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove salt, chlorine, or sunscreen residue.

Fabric appearing wrinkled

Due to the linen content, light steaming is recommended. Avoid direct contact with a hot iron on the fabric to prevent scorching or damage to the print.

Halter strap slippage

Ensure the neck tie is knotted securely before entering the water, as the weight of the fabric may shift when wet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and fashion-forward aesthetic
  • Flattering ruched waist with elegant gold-tone hardware
  • High-cut design creates an elongated leg silhouette
  • Versatile enough to be styled as a bodysuit with trousers
  • Distinctive botanical print provides a unique visual appeal

Cons

  • Linen-blend material may require specific wash care
  • Deep plunge design may not be suitable for all body types or activity levels
  • Requires careful storage to prevent hardware tarnishing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your swimsuit retains its shape and print vibrancy, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water using a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the delicate hardware and linen fibers.
  2. Drying: Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can cause the orchid print to fade over time.
  3. Storage: Store the swimsuit laid flat or on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the ruched waist. Keep away from direct contact with heavy perfumes or sunscreens to protect the gold-tone hardware.
  4. Compatibility: While intended for swimming, this piece performs best in low-impact water environments. If styling as a top, ensure your trousers are high-waisted to complement the cut of the suit.
