How to Care For Your Designer Swimsuits?

How to Care for Your Designer Swimsuits?

Why invest in great quality swimwear if you are going to treat it poorly and only get a few wears out of it? 

 

Follow these 6 easy care steps:

1) If you must swim in a Chlorine Pool...
Ensure to frequently check your pool and hot tub's chlorine content. If it is too high, the excessive amount of chlorine can break down the spandex of the swimsuit, which will ruin the shape of your swimwear. Also, too much chlorine can accelerate fading of the fabric so spending long days in the pool are not recommended for designer suits.

2) Avoid Rough Surfaces
Sitting and/or rubbing against textured pool decks and any rough edges can ruin the smooth and luxurious texture of your swimsuit so pay close attention to surfaces.

3) Be Careful with Tanning Oils and Sunscreen
Avoid getting excess lotions and oils on your swimwear. Sunscreen, tanning oils, and cosmetics can be harmful to swimsuits because they will stain fabrics. Make sure to rinse and wash your swimwear as soon as possible if you do.

4) Rinse in Cold Water After Wearing
Rinse your swimsuits in cold water after each wear. By rinsing your suits in cold water, you will help remove the excess salt and chlorine which is an important step in the care of your swimwear.

5) Do Not Machine Wash Your Designer Bikini
Avoid washing designer bikinis in washing machines. Washing machines can ruin the shape, fabric, and padding, as well as any delicate embellishments, stones, or beading. Therefore wash your swimwear by hand in cold water. Always use a mild soap that is meant for delicate fabrics.

6) Lay Out To Dry, Avoid Direct Sunlight Which Can Cause Fading
Gently squeeze the water out of your designer bikini after washing. Be gentle and do not wring or twist your bikini, as this could ruin its shape. Do not dry your swimsuits in a dryer and do not dry it in direct sunlight.
