THE TANKINI ADVANTAGE
COMFORT MEETS CONFIDENCE:
THE TANKINI ADVANTAGE
Striking the perfect balance of style, comfort, and coverage, tankinis bring a range of advantages. Here's why they’ve become a timeless summer favourite:
ADDED COVERAGE & SUN PROTECTION
Covers the torso for comfort and confidence in the sun, making tankinis a smart choice for long days at the beach or pool.
TWO-PIECE CONVENIENCE
Easier to wear than a one-piece—the separate top and bottom allow quicker bathroom breaks, easier changes, and a more flexible fit across different body types.
MIX & MATCH OPTIONS
From extra support to bold patterns and colours, tankinis allow you to customize your look by pairing different tops and bottoms.
FLATTERING BY DESIGN
Tankinis combine the sleek look of a one-piece with the freedom of choosing the perfect top and bottom that best suit your body, making them a flattering option for every body type.

Pair your tankini with casual cover-ups like a breezy pareo, gauzy or crochet bottoms, or a loose-fitting shirt for a laid-back yet stylish look. Top it off with a wide-brimmed hat for sun protection and carry your must-haves in a roomy beach tote for all-day ease and confidence.
CARE FOR YOUR TANKINI
A little care can go a long way! After enjoying some fun in the sun, rinse your tankini and gently hand-wash it with mild detergent. Skip the dryer and don’t wring it out to help maintain its fit and colour. For more tips on keeping your swimsuit in top condition, check out our Swimsuit Care Guide.
