ADDITONAL INFO
How do I wash my bikini?
To keep your handmade bikini looking its best, we recommend hand washing with cold water due to the delicate nature of the beaded detailing. If machine washing is necessary, place your bikini in a laundry bag and wash on a gentle/delicate cycle with cold water.
Do not tumble dry. Always hang to dry in a shaded area to maintain fabric quality and beadwork integrity.
Will the beads fall off the bikini over time?
Each beaded embroidery bikini is carefully handmade, with all beading stitched through two layers of fabric for added strength and durability. Our bikini tops are double-lined to help ensure the beads stay secure. While it’s possible for a bead to come loose with wear, following the recommended care instructions will help maintain your bikini’s beauty for seasons to come.
Can I swim and tan in these bikinis?
Yes, you can! Each beaded bikini is designed to be worn in the water. I’ve personally tested every bead I use in chlorine, saltwater, and sunlight to ensure they hold up and remain durable. While the beads are made to last, it is possible they may fade slightly over time with repeated exposure to the sun, saltwater, and chlorine. To keep your bikini looking its best, be sure to follow the care instructions provided.
Would I feel the thread/beads through the bikini?
Not at all! Each bikini top is double lined—one layer holds the beadwork securely, while the inner lining is smooth with no exposed threads, so the beads and thread never touch your skin. The beads are also lightweight, so they won’t feel heavy or uncomfortable when worn.
