How to find your perfect fit:

Take measurements using soft tape measure.

Our bikinis are super cheeky. They'll be secure & tight, perfect for an active lifestyle in the ocean. Your suit should be snug when you first try it on so that once it's wet, you achieve a perfect water fit. We sew very skimpy. Just because the size is L, that doesn't mean substantially more coverage. Our swimwear will keep a consistent "Tai Swim" minimal cut, no matter the style or size.
