Can I machine wash this swimsuit?
It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit gently with mild detergent to preserve the fabric and its features. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents.
How does the sizing work?
This guide refers to a UK size 16. Please refer to a standard UK women's dress size chart for accurate fitting.
What material is it made from?
The swimsuit is made from a blend of 85% polyester and 15% elastane, with a fabric weight of 200gsm.
Is this swimsuit suitable for chlorine pools?
Yes, it is suitable for chlorine pools, but it's important to rinse thoroughly with cold water after each use to prolong its life and maintain fabric integrity.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels tight or restrictive
Ensure the correct size has been selected. If between sizes, consider the stretch fabric and personal fit preference. Try wearing it for a short period to allow the fabric to adapt.
Straps feel loose or are slipping
Check that the cross-over straps are positioned correctly at the back. Ensure the fabric is not overly saturated, which can sometimes cause temporary slippage. The fit should be snug but not constricting.
Fabric not drying as quickly as expected
Ensure the swimsuit is thoroughly rinsed of pool chemicals or saltwater, as residue can affect drying time. Squeeze out excess water gently before air drying.
