TIE SIDES

Size & fit guide

The Tie-Side bikini is a universally flattering style. The fabric at the front of our bikini stops well before the hip, thereby reducing the bulk typically found and creating the ultimate hourglass bikini bottom. Our ultra-thin ties, combined with our concaved cut over the glutes is what elongate your legs for a flattering and elegant look. The thin sides also allow for minimal tan lines. We have constructed our seams to be concealed. This ensures there is no stitching rubbing against your skin, which is essential for all-day comfort, especially around your hips. Our fabrics are treated with colour fastness, anti-yellowing and UV protection to prolong and enhance their lifecycle. Our extremely soft fabric feels like a second-skin.

We do premium, timeless swimwear.

YOU'VE CHOSEN MODEL A

Triangle (Small) and Tie Sides (X-Small)

WHO IT SUITS:

The Tie Sides give a Hybrid coverage, making it ideal for those looking for minimal tan lines but more coverage than our Brazilians.

If you love the look of string sides but find they dig in too much, the bows of the tie side help mask this.

If you want to accentuate the hourglass look or define your waist, the bows of the ties will do this for you.

If you have a larger booty and find that hipster styles sit too low at the back, you may want to try one of our high leg or high waist styles due to the higher rise at the back.

TRYING IT ON:

The Tie Sides have adjustable strings, giving you flexibility. Play around with how tight or loose you want the side ties, as well as how high or low you want them on the hips. To achieve a narrower look, position the bows slightly towards your front. Alternatively, if you want to accentuate the width of your hips, position the ties on the outside of your hip.

After you’ve worn it wet for the first time, you may want to tighten the strings.

If you have tan lines, picture yourself evenly tanned when trying the bikini on. This will help you feel less exposed and have a more accurate fitting experience.
