The High Waist
Sizing guide for tops
Finding your right bra size can be difficult. Here we provide you with the right tools to find your perfect size. You can either measure yourself, or take the cup size you wear in your country and convert it. If you're having doubts about your size, don't worry, that's completely normal. Send us a message in the chat box or giv us a call, and we're happy to give you personal advise. How to determine your cup size? Get yourself a measuring tape, and follow these 2 steps:
STEP 1: Determine your underbust size: You can find the underbust size by measuring your underbust directly under your breasts. It's best to measure on your bare skin. If you're measuring with a top or a bra on, please make sure the measuring tape doesn't go over a thick layer of fabric or underwires.
| I am measured in CM | 72,5 - 77,5 | 77,5 - 82,5 | 82,5 - 87,5 | 87,5 - 92,5 | 92,5 - 97,5 | 97,5 - 102,5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Underbust size | 70 | 75 | 80 | 85 | 90 | 95 |
STEP 2: Determine your cup size: You can find your cup size by measuring the width over the fullest part of your breasts. When you know your cup size in centimeters, follow the column with the under bust size that you measured in step 1, and search for the row with your cup size measurements. Voilà, there is your cup size!

Measuring yourself gives you the most accurate sizing advice, and has been proved to be accurate in 98% of the times. Learn why.
The Classic runs one size smaller than our other styles — this has already been factored into the size shown above.
The High waist gives light compression at the waist for an hourglass effect. Some women prefer a looser fit. If this sounds like you, consider sizing up.
Are all bottoms true to size?
All our bottoms are true to size, except the Classic bottom, which runs one size smaller than usual.
I have well-rounded butt cheeks, will the bottom cut into my skin?
Not at all. If you choose a style with a bit of cheek showing, the fabric will naturally sit slightly above the fullest part of your bum, creating a smooth and flattering line. Our Classic bottom offers the most coverage, though it still leaves a subtle hint of cheek — and even on rounder shapes, it is designed not to cut in.
If you're unsure, you're always welcome to try it at home — we offer a 30-day easy return policy.
Will the fabric loosen when wet?
As with all swimwear fabrics, the fabric will loosen very minimally when wet. This is due to the fact that the fabric gets heavier once water is absorbed. This effect is taken into account with designing all pieces, and there is no need to size down accordingly.
Will the bottom get baggy over time?
Absolutely not! All our bikini bottoms are made with carefully selected fabrics with excellent stretch-retention, meaning that the fabric will return completely into its natural position after stretching it out. This means that your bikini bottom will fit snug to your body, even after multiple seasons.
How to measure your hip circumference
- Measure yourself in front of a mirror, ideally in your underwear.
- Stand naturally — don't suck in your stomach or clench your glutes.
- Wrap the tape measure around your hips at the height of your hip bones. This is the height where the waistband of a regular bikini bottom normally sits.
- Check that the tape sits perfectly horizontal (level) all the way around.
- Keep the tape snug against your skin, but don't pull it tight.
- Is the tape level all the way around? Great!
- Now read off your measurement.
Why measuring yourself gives you
the most accurate result
Some brands use sizing that runs smaller or larger than other brands. So you might wear a size 36 elsewhere, but a 38 with us, or the other way around.
We want to make shopping as easy as possible for you. That is why this sizing tool is made specifically to give you your correct size.
Fast home delivery
30 day easy returns
Buy now, Pay later
Sustainably and fairly made
This bikini bottom gives slight compression on your waist, and therefore some women prefer to size up 1 size.
If you're unsure about which size would be best for you, we advise you to purchase 2 sizes and return the one that you don't want to keep.

Ethics
All our products are made in a factory in Tunisia, where the employees earn more than a living wage and have a safe and responsible work environment.

All pieces are made from recycled fabrics made from regenerated polyester yarn, made from ocean waste from the Mediterranean Sea.
Plain fabric: 85% Polyester (100% recycled) 15% Elastane
Rib fabric: 84% Polyester (100% recycled) 16% Elastane
- Chlorine resistant. The fabric isn’t prone to colorization due to chlorine in the pool.
- UV resistant. The fabric isn’t prone to fade in the sun.
- Salt resistant. The fabric keeps its quality in salt water.
- Pilling resistant. The surface of the fabrics isn’t prone to pilling.
- Shape retention. This fabrics will not get baggy over time, but will stay in shape.
- Excellent coverage. This bikini will not see through when it gets wet and has an opaque coverage.
Care
Taking care of your bikini properly is highly important to ensure your bikini lasts long. If the swimwear is not taken care of properly, fading of colour or losing it’s shape may occur. Therefore we highly recommend to follow the care instructions below:
- Hand wash in cold or lukewarm water with a gentle swim-wear suitable detergent after each use. ‘Normal detergent’ suitable for washing machines is too strong for swimwear fabric and affects the quality and durability of the piece.
- Dry in the shade.
- Do not twist or “wring out” to dry. Instead, lay the item down between two towels and press to absorb the water.
- Make sure your bikini is completely dry before putting away.
Putting your bikini in the washing machine and/or dryer may feel like the easiest option, but over time it will decrease the quality and durability of your swimsuit.
