FAQs
High waisted bathing suit bottoms have a waistband that typically sits at or near the natural waist, often around the belly button. They bring a retro-inspired feel to swimwear, with leg cuts and back coverage that range from cheeky to full.
Triangle, bandeau, bralette, and longline bikini tops all pair beautifully with high waisted bottoms. Try a matching set for a pulled-together look, or mix prints and solids for a little personality.
No. High waisted describes the rise of the waistband, not the amount of back coverage. You can find high waisted bikini bottoms with cheeky, medium, or full back coverage, as well as different leg openings.
High waisted refers to where the waistband sits, while high-cut describes leg openings that extend higher on the hips. A bathing suit bottom can have either feature or combine both for a high-rise silhouette with a higher leg line.
Check the care label first, since fabrics and details can call for different care. In general, rinse after swimming, gently hand wash with mild detergent in cool water, and dry in the shade. Skip wringing and high heat to help preserve the fabric and stretch for beach days ahead.
