Biustonosz kąpielowy Fantasie SHELL BAY FS506909DEB Uw Bandeau Bikini Top Desert Blush

This Fantasie underwired bandeau bikini top is designed for wearing at the beach or pool when you want breast support similar to a bra, with the option of going strapless or using the attached straps.

Construction and fit

The cut is based on lightly padded, foam-lined cups with underwire, which aim to give a rounded shape and stable support in a bikini form. It works as a structured bikini top rather than a soft triangle style.

• Lightly padded foam cups provide a smooth, rounded cup shape and help the fabric keep its form when wet.
• Concealed underwire runs under the bust for structured support, especially useful if you are used to a Fantasie bra.
• Twist detail at the centre front forms a gentle sweetheart neckline, which can sit well on fuller or firmer breast tissue.
• Powernet-lined wings (back band) are firmer than standard swim fabric, which can help the band stay in place when worn strapless.
• Bandeau construction means the cup edge is fixed rather than elasticated, so it may feel more secure on even or fuller-on-top shapes than on very soft, bottom-heavy breasts.
• Detachable scarf-style straps allow you to wear it strapless, halter or with straight straps, so you can adjust the level of security depending on activity.
• Hammered-effect gold-coloured rings on the straps are designed not to heat up in the sun, reducing the risk of discomfort on the skin.

Function and use

This model is intended as womens swimwear for lounging, light swimming and general holiday wear, with more structure than a typical fashion bikini. It is not designed as sports swimwear.

• As a bandeau bikini, it works best for relaxed swimming, sunbathing and walking on the beach rather than jumping or intensive water sports.
• The padded cups and print help reduce nipple show-through compared with unlined bikinis.
• The firmer band and underwire can be reassuring for fuller busts looking for a supportive bikini top, but may feel too structured if you prefer very soft, bralette-style pieces.
• The printed surface and gold-tone details are decorative, so may be better suited to holiday wear than to frequent pool training in chlorinated water.

Fabric and care

The main fabric and linings are classic swimwear materials chosen for shape retention and resistance to water.

• Main fabric: 80% Polyamide, 20% Elastane
• Cup lining: 100% Polyamide
• Wing lining: 86% Polyamide, 14% Elastane

Hand wash in cool water and dry away from direct heat or strong sun to help the bikini maintain its elasticity and colour over time.
