How do I find the right fit for women’s sexy swimwear?
Your regular clothing size should work for swimwear, but it’s best to always check the size guide too, as measurements can vary between brands. Bikini sizing can be quite forgiving, as the tie-style straps are easy to adjust.
With a one-piece swimsuit, the important thing is getting the right body length. Don’t be afraid to size up if you’re taller or between sizes. Otherwise, you might find the gusset pulls uncomfortably or rides up where it shouldn’t!
Check the product description online, as they’ll usually tell you what size your model is wearing and her height – which may help you compare.
How do I care for lingerie-style swimwear?
Most women’s swimwear is made from soft, stretchy fabric blends using durable materials like polyester, elastane, nylon, or spandex. When made from these materials, even sexy swimwear is suitable for swimming! That said, it helps to know how to care for your swimwear properly.
Always rinse your swimwear in fresh, cold water after every swim. If you have time to handwash them, especially delicate or sheer styles, it’ll help keep them in good condition for longer.
Otherwise, you can pop your swimsuit in a delicates bag and wash them on a cooler cycle. Keep spin cycles short and avoid wringing out delicate styles. Let your swimsuit air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, avoiding hot radiators.
Can sexy swimwear be worn as lingerie or festival wear?
Absolutely! For festival season, swimwear is a wardrobe staple. The most popular styles blur the lines between swimwear and fashion, with textured fabrics and high-shine metallics.
When choosing a sexy swimsuit for lingerie or day wear, think about how you want the fabric to feel and how long you’re planning to wear it. Thicker fabrics give you more support, while thin, stretchy fabrics sit closer to the body for a second-skin feel.
If you’re wearing your swimwear for more than two hours at a time, be sure to choose quick-drying bottoms that won’t trap too much moisture around your crotch.
Consider the occasion too. A structured one-piece might feel polished if you’re staying in a luxury hotel with a pool – but barely-there string bikini styles can be more fun and eye-catching for a party.
How do I style sexy swimwear?
Sexy black swimwear pairs with everything – a light cotton dress and slides for a beach-to-lunch look, or gold jewellery and a sarong to take it into the evening. If your swimsuit is more vibrant, go for white linen shirt and let the colours speak for themselves.
Cut-outs are everywhere right now, which makes the classic silhouette of a one-piece swimsuit feel sexier and more confident. You’ll also notice bright florals and neon shades as swimwear becomes something you can wear to a rooftop bar or festival – as well as the beach.
To style your swimwear for a festival, pair a bikini top with shorts and boots or layer swimwear under a sheer co-ord. You can also try a sleek one-piece swimsuit with low-rise trousers or a mini skirt for a night out.
