Women's swimwear

One-piece or two-piece

The first choice is about style. The one-piece swimsuit, like the Regatta Baylenne, covers the bust and tummy, fits well during swimming and diving, and is making a comeback for its elegance. The two-piece, or bikini, like the Protest Match, leaves the tummy bare for more tanning. The tankini, like the Regatta Aceana, combines a long top and bikini bottoms: the coverage of a one-piece with the convenience of a two-piece. Buying tops and bottoms separately allows for adjusting each size.

By type of swimsuit

Women's swimsuits come in various types:

• Swimsuit tops.
• Swimsuit bottoms.
• One-piece swimsuit.
• Two-piece swimsuit.

The selections for men and children complete the offer on the swimsuit page.

The bottoms, from low-rise to skirted

The bottoms are also chosen based on silhouette. The classic, high-cut bottom, like the Freya Ibiza Waves, shows off the hips. The mid-rise bottom, like the Fantasie Beach Waves or the Barts Isla, covers a bit more of the tummy. The high-waisted bottom, like the Freya Koh Tao, with a retro style, comes up to the navel and holds lightly. The skirted bottom, like the Freya Nomad Nights, adds a small skirt for a romantic touch. The Elomi bottom is tailored for larger sizes.

Brands and care

Freya and Fantasie size their tops by band and cup, like a bra, for true support of generous busts; Elomi focuses on larger sizes. Triumph, Red Point, Inaska and Cupshe feature prints and colours, while Protest and Barts, Dutch brands, bring a beach and surf vibe. After each swim, rinse the swimsuit in fresh water to remove salt, chlorine and sunscreen, without wringing it, and lay it flat to dry in the shade.

Good deals

Good finds can also be found in good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped within 24h are prepared and dispatched within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year holidays, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, followed by summer sales and back to school.

Frequently Asked Questions

What swimsuit should I choose if I have a tummy?

A shaping one-piece or tankini, like the Regatta Aceana, covers the tummy without squeezing. A high-waisted bottom paired with a structured top also allows for a two-piece while feeling secure.

What swimsuit is good for a large bust?

A top with underwire and cups, like those from Freya and Fantasie, supports the bust like a bra and is chosen by back size and cup. Wide, adjustable straps distribute weight better while swimming.

How do I choose my swimsuit size?

The top is ideally chosen based on bra size and the bottom based on hip measurement: getting both pieces separately allows for the right size for each. Elomi offers larger sizes in bottoms.

Should I get a one-piece or a bikini for swimming?

For regular swimming, a one-piece stays in place better during dives and turns. A bikini is suitable for the beach and casual swimming, as long as you choose a well-supported top for the waves.

How do I care for my swimsuit after the sea or pool?

Rinse it in clean water right after coming out to eliminate salt, chlorine and sunscreen, then hand wash it in cold water. Dry it flat in the shade without twisting it to wring it out.
