BUST/CHEST

WAIST

Measure around your natural waistline, which is the smallest area of the waist.

HIPS

Stand with feet together. Keeping tape straight and parallel to the floor, measure around the fullest part.

TANKINI TOPS

Stand tall with shoulders comfortably back. Measure from the highest point on your shoulder straight down to the top of your bikini bottom.

ONE PIECE SUITS

Measure from the highest point of your shoulder diagonally across your body to the bottom seam (crotch).

BRA-SIZED SWIM TOPS

FIRST find your BAND SIZE
Wrap the measuring tape firmly around your rib cage, just below your bust. To get your band size, add 5” to the measurement. If the measurement is odd, round down to the next number.

NEXT find your BUST SIZE
Take a slightly less snug, but not loose measurement around your back and across the fullest part of your bust. Round up if you don’t have a whole number.

Calculate your CUP SIZENow subtract your band size measurement from your bust size measurement. Each inch of difference corresponds to a cup size.

Swim fabrics stretch a bit when wet, so staying true to size is better when you're spending most of your time in actual water. It is important to follow a brand's fit guide to ensure the perfect fit for your body.

1. Washing a swimsuit by hand is best because hand-washing is gentler and helps prevent stretching. Fill a sink with lukewarm water and add a gentle detergent. Rinse and air dry

2. If using a washer, turn the swimsuit inside-out. Place the suit in a mesh laundry bag to prevent snags and stretching. Set the washer to the gentle cycle and use cold water and a gentle detergent. When the cycle is finished, remove the swimsuit from the bag and hang it to air-dry.
