Full details
The Elomi Plain Sailing Plunge Bikini Top is designed for adult women seeking a blend of high-fashion style and reliable lingerie-grade support in their swimwear. This bikini top provides excellent lift and shaping through its underwired construction, making it an ideal choice for those who want both security and a feminine aesthetic. While it offers superior comfort and an adjustable fit, users should note that the non-padded cups provide a natural shape, which may differ from the silhouette provided by molded or padded swimwear.

FAQs
Is this bikini top padded?
No, it features non-padded cups for a natural silhouette and a comfortable, lingerie-like feel.
Can the ruffles be removed?
The ruffle design is integrated into the garment, but it can be worn either on or off the shoulders for different style options.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Since this top uses standard bra sizing, it is recommended to use your current best-fitting Elomi bra size as a reference for your bikini top.
Is it suitable for swimming laps?
While it offers great support, it is designed primarily for leisure swimming and beach wear rather than competitive athletic training.
How do I clean my bikini top properly?
Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and always air dry flat, avoiding high heat or tumble drying.
What is the function of the powernet back lining?
The powernet lining is an additional layer of firm mesh fabric inside the back band that provides extra stability and prevents the bikini from stretching out or sliding during wear.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel loose or slip off shoulders
Adjust the sliders on the back of the shoulder straps to create a tighter, more secure fit against your frame.
Underwire feels uncomfortable after long wear
Ensure the center gore sits flat against your breastbone and that the band size is snug enough to provide support without shifting.
Fabric discoloration or loss of elasticity
Ensure you are rinsing the garment thoroughly after contact with chlorine or salt, and avoid direct sunlight during the drying process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Elomi bikini top, always rinse it with cool, fresh water immediately after use in chlorinated pools or saltwater to prevent fabric degradation. When cleaning, hand wash in lukewarm water with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry in the shade; avoid wringing the fabric, as this can damage the underwire and the powernet lining. The back clasp is standard for swimwear, allowing for easy fastening, and the adjustable shoulder straps should be checked periodically to ensure they remain tightened to your preference for optimal support.
