Product Information
Full details
The Elomi Plain Sailing Bikini Top is designed for adult females seeking a supportive and stylish swimwear option. Its key benefit is offering the comfortable and secure fit of an Elomi lingerie bra in a bikini design, thanks to its underwired plunge style and integrated bra structure. A potential caveat is that it requires hand washing to maintain its fabric integrity and shape.

FAQs
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the Elomi size chart. Measuring your underbust and fullest part of your bust is crucial for finding the right band and cup size. The fit should feel snug but comfortable, with no digging or gaping.
Can this bikini top be machine washed?
No, the Elomi Plain Sailing Bikini Top is hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the delicate fabric and elastic, compromising the fit and support.
What is the benefit of the LYCRA® XTRA LIFETM elastane?
This material provides enhanced resistance to chlorine, sunscreen, and heat, ensuring the swimwear retains its shape, color, and fit for longer compared to standard elastane.
Is this suitable for larger busts?
Yes, Elomi is a brand specifically known for its supportive designs for larger busts. The underwired structure and powernet lining are engineered to provide excellent support.
What is the difference between the inner and outer cups?
The inner top cup is made of power net for comfort and ease of fit, while the outer wrap front is a stretch fabric that contributes to the overall shape and style of the bikini top.
How often should I rinse the bikini top?
It is recommended to rinse the bikini top in cold water immediately after each use to remove salt, chlorine, and sunscreen residues, which helps to preserve the fabric and elasticity.
What does 'Underwired Plunge' mean?
This refers to a bikini top style that features underwire support for lift and shape, combined with a low-cut neckline (plunge) designed to be flattering and suitable for lower-cut tops or dresses.
Troubleshooting
Straps are digging in or slipping.
Adjust the length of the shoulder straps using the adjusters to find a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the back band is sitting correctly on your ribcage.
Bikini top feels less supportive over time.
Ensure the garment is being hand-washed and dried flat as per care instructions. Exposure to high heat or harsh detergents can degrade the supportive fabrics.
Discoloration or fabric damage.
This may be due to prolonged exposure to chlorine, saltwater, or sunlight without proper rinsing and drying. Always rinse thoroughly after use and dry flat away from direct sun.
