Made from a recycled polyester and spandex blend, this bikini bottom is a little more sustainable than traditional fast-fashion suits. It's double-layered and is super stretchy and comfortable but still form-fitting.
I know bathing suit shopping can be tough, especially online, so if you have any questions about the fit please don't hesitate to send me a message! I have one of my own that I love to wear by the pool, so I'm here to help :) There's also a sizing chart nested in the product photos.

What is recycled polyester?
Recycled polyester is a fabric that’s produced from synthetic fibres. Recycled polyester is produced by recycling existing materials (like plastic bottles and packaging) but still has all the characteristics and performance as a regular polyester, making it a more sustainable fabric alternative.
How’s recycled polyester made?
Recycled polyester is made by crushing plastic products into small pieces. These small pieces are then processed into yarn, transformed into a fibre, and in the end—made into a fabric.
What are the advantages of recycled polyester?
Producing recycled polyester takes 33% to 53% less energy than creating polyester from scratch. Also, it produces approximately 54.6% fewer CO2 emissions to the air than virgin polyester.
By using recycled materials to make things like this bikini set, at least some of the plastic waste produced doesn’t end up in landfills.
