Size does make a difference

You might be aware: are your clothing sizes for bikini tops and bottoms different and you cannot buy sets? No problem for our two-piece swimwear. Esprit lets you put together your bikini the way it suits you best. Added benefit: buy different bikini bottoms to simply add variety to your style.

Different colours and patterns

Who says that bikini top and bikini bottoms always have to be identical? What applies to the size also applies to the colour – the bikini top may differ from the bikini bottom. A trick that is as fashionable as it is figure-flattering: with a different coloured bikini set, you pick up on the theme of colour blocking. And you show-off your figure to the best advantage. Light and dark are the secret – with the lighter shade you emphasise what you want to. The darker shade conceals and flatters the figure. Especially fashionable combinations play with different patterns. Try it out.

Which bikini bottom design suits you?

The selection of bikini bottoms is extensive. Essentially, all models of bikini bottoms should fit comfortably, i.e. they should not cut or pinch at any point due to being too small. This makes you seem larger than you really are and it also does not feel good.

Real classics: briefs in different variations

Bikini briefs are probably the most chosen bikini bottoms. Their popularity and familiarity in lingerie is echoed here with bikinis, because lingerie briefs are also very comfortable to wear and come in many different forms. Women's bikini briefs are available from us in the following variations:

• Mini briefs: comfortable fit with slightly cut legs, narrow side straps and a low waist height. Suitable for any size and shape.
• Midi briefs: comfortable fit with slightly cut legs, wide side straps and low waist height. Suitable for any size and shape.
• Briefs with side tie: often combined with triangle tops. Thanks to the ties on the sides, the length of the side straps can be individually adjusted. If you have rather wide hips, we recommend that you avoid briefs with straps, as they can be a bit bulky.

Briefs with high leg openings are advantageous for short legs and wider hips, as they visually stretch the leg.

Styling tip for tops

Bikini bottoms, which are so universally wearable, offer many possibilities. Combine them with a high-neck top, neckholder, bandeau, tankini or underwired top.
Focus on the hips: hipster shorts
As the name suggests, the hipsters sit on the hips rather than at the waist and have a straight leg cut. They are best suited to non curvy, straight and athletic figures. Even with flat bottoms, hipster shorts show off the figure to its advantage, because it makes the bottom look rounder.‏

Styling tip for tops

Combine the hipster bottoms with a bandeau bikini top or a triangle top.

A hiding place for little bellies: high waist briefs

This variation of women’s bikini bottoms is a retro look. They are based on designs from the '50s and mainly suit women with curvy figures. The waistband is wide and high, almost to the navel, thus concealing a slight belly and cut with style and charm. The high waist bottoms sit comfortably without cutting into you. Perfect for active wearers, as the high waist brief does not slip even when you are swimming, surfing or playing beach volleyball.

Styling tip for tops

High waist briefs go particularly well with neckholder bikini tops and underwired bikinis with ruffles or frills. A bandeau bikini top is also great for a smaller bust size.

The right care after sunbathing

Salt water, chlorine, sun lotion, sweat – your bikini will have to withstand a lot during the summer. That is why it deserves after sun treatment just like you. The most important tip: after bathing – whether in an open-air pool, in a lake or in the sea – take a shower and immediately wash out any residue. Also note:

• Dry wet bikinis as soon as you get home
• Do not hang in the sun, because colours fade and the quality of the material may deteriorate
• Hand wash using mild soap
• Do not wring out, because this will stress the fibres and eventually wear them out
• It is best to dry flat
