Fantasie Beach Waves Bandeau Bikini Top - Green - 40D

The straps typically have adjustable sliders and can be fastened in different ways. Consult the garment's tag or Fantasie's website for specific diagrams on how to re-tie or clip the straps for different styles like halter, strapless, or cross-back.

Hand wash is recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric, padding, and color. Machine washing, even on a delicate cycle, can be harsher and may lead to premature wear or damage.

Lay the bikini top flat to dry in the shade. Avoid hanging it, as the weight of the wet fabric can stretch the material. Never put it in a tumble dryer, as the heat can damage the fibers and elastic.

The padding is described as 'lightly padded foam cups,' suggesting it offers shaping and a smooth appearance rather than significant push-up enhancement.

The '40' refers to the band size (circumference around the ribcage), and 'D' refers to the cup size (the difference between the bust measurement and the band measurement). This is a standard bra sizing convention.

The bikini top is designed for swimming and lounging. The secure fit and supportive features make it suitable for general water activities. For very strenuous activities, consider additional support options if needed.

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly for the chosen style (halter, strapless, etc.). Check that the back band is snug but not too tight. If the issue persists, the elasticity of the fabric may be compromised over time.

Gently reposition the padding within its pocket. If the padding is significantly damaged, it may need replacement, though this is not typically user-serviceable.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cool water, and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying. Harsh chemicals or excessive heat can cause fading.

This can occur with excessive wear or improper washing. Try hand washing gently and laying flat to dry. If stretching is significant, the garment may need to be replaced.
