Product & Sizing

How do I choose my size?

All of our product pages also include a link to the size chart to help you find your fit.

For high-rise and/or adjustable bottoms, we would recommend using your waist as reference. For mid-rise and/or banded bottoms, use your hips as reference.

Do your styles run true to size?

You can find our Size & Style Guide here. All of our product pages also indicate if a product runs small, large, or true to size.

Most of our products run true to size. However, some styles like MARIA and BALI may run smaller in fit and coverage due to their design and intended look.

What styles would you recommend for coverage?

For tops, we would recommend our CAPRI, ZOE, and IVY tops. You can also try sizing up in any of our other adjustable styles for more coverage and tie them to fit.

For bottoms, we would recommend our CAPRI, LOLA, and INDIE bottoms.

How do I care for my swimwear?

To ensure that your suits stay bright for a long time and many uses, we would recommend that you:

  • Hand was your swimwear immediately after each use with cold water and a light detergent to remove any chlorine, salt, and sand. Avoid scrubbing with a rough brush, or using harsh chemicals or bleach.
  • Air dry your swimwear in the shade or on a clean, dry towel. Avoid putting it in direct sunlight or using a dryer as this can cause fading or damage to the elasticity and fabric.
  • Store your swimwear in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing it in a damp or humid place.
  • Avoid rough surfaces such as rocks or gravely tiles as this can snag or damage the fabric, and cause pilling.
How long does it take to restock products?

We normally expect to restock select items every month or so. However, we cannot guarantee which styles or prints will be included in each restock.
