Learn how to get the perfect fit and keep your Farah ruffle waistline bikini bottom looking great all season with these simple steps.

Quick answer

For a flawless fit, choose your usual size in the Farah Microfiber Bikini Bottom and follow the care steps below to keep the ruffle waistline and emerald color vibrant.

Why fit matters for a ruffle waistline

The raw-cut ruffle detail on the Farah bikini bottom is designed to sit flat and flatter without digging in. If you size up, the ruffle may lose its shape; if you size down, the waistband can roll. The microfiber fabric has a gentle stretch that adapts to your curves, so sticking with your usual size gives the best silhouette.

Microfiber swimwear care basics

Microfiber is lightweight and dries quickly, but it is sensitive to heat and harsh chemicals. Chlorine, sunscreen oils, and high heat can break down the fibers and fade the black-and-emerald contrast. A simple rinse routine after each wear makes a big difference.

How to fit and care for your Farah bikini bottom

  1. Check the size chart before ordering: Measure your hips at the widest point and compare with the size guide. The Farah bottom runs true to size for most plus-size shapes. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for a more relaxed fit. Common mistake: assuming your dress size equals swim size — always measure first.
  2. Try on with a mirror to check the ruffle placement: The ruffle should sit naturally at your natural waist or just below, depending on your preference. If the ruffle twists or buckles, the bottom may be too tight. If it sags, the bottom is too loose. Checkpoint: the waistband should lie flat without rolling.
  3. Rinse in cool water immediately after use: Hold the bottom under cool running water for 30 seconds to remove chlorine, salt, and sunscreen. Gently squeeze — do not wring or twist — to avoid stretching the ruffle. Common mistake: letting the suit dry with salt or chlorine still in the fabric, which fades the emerald color.
  4. Hand wash with a mild detergent: Fill a basin with cool water and add a teaspoon of gentle swimwear wash. Submerge the bottom and swish for 2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly in cool water until no suds remain. Never use bleach or fabric softener — they break down microfiber and dull the black finish.
  5. Air dry flat away from direct sunlight: Lay the bottom flat on a clean towel, reshape the ruffle, and roll the towel to remove excess water. Then unroll and let it dry flat in the shade. Do not hang — the weight of wet fabric can stretch the waistband. Checkpoint: avoid dryers, radiators, and direct sun to prevent fading and fiber damage.
