FAQs
What is UPF 50+?
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF 50+ rating means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.
How do I know which size to order?
These bikini bottoms are sized according to UK dress sizes. Please refer to a standard UK women's dress size chart to find your corresponding size. For example, this item is a Size 12.
Can I machine wash these bikini bottoms?
It is recommended to hand wash these bikini bottoms gently with a mild detergent. Machine washing may damage the fabric and reduce its lifespan.
What is the fabric made of?
The fabric is a blend of 51% Polyester, 33% Polyamide, and 16% Elastane. This combination offers durability, comfort, and stretch.
How should I dry the bikini bottoms?
After rinsing and gently washing, reshape the bikini bottoms while damp and lay them flat to dry. Avoid direct sunlight and do not use a tumble dryer.
Are these bikini bottoms suitable for chlorine pools?
While the fabric is durable, prolonged exposure to chlorine can degrade swimwear. It is best to rinse the bottoms thoroughly in fresh water immediately after swimming in a chlorinated pool.
What does 'ruched side detail' mean?
Ruched side detail refers to gathered or pleated fabric on the sides of the bikini bottoms, which creates a decorative texture and can offer a more adjustable or flattering fit.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stretched out after wear.
Ensure you are rinsing the garment thoroughly after each use and following the hand wash and dry flat instructions. Avoid excessive wringing.
Sun protection seems less effective.
Confirm that the fabric is not overly worn or damaged. The UPF rating is based on the integrity of the fabric; significant wear may reduce its effectiveness. Follow care instructions to prolong fabric life.
Color appears faded.
Avoid drying the garment in direct sunlight. Store it away from prolonged sun exposure when not in use.
