Finding your fit

Bare All is sold as separates, so you can size your top and bottom independently, and mix sizes if your proportions differ. Grab a soft tape measure, measure against bare skin or non-padded underwear, and keep the tape level and snug, not tight. Don't hold your breath or suck in.

• Bust: around the fullest part of your chest, with the tape level across your back. Your main number for tops.
• Under-bust: directly under your bust, where a bra band sits. Guides the fit on bandeau and structured styles.
• Waist: the narrowest part of your torso, without sucking in.
• Hips: around the fullest part of your hips and bum, with the tape level. Your main number for bottoms.

Body measurement chart

These are the body measurements each size is designed to fit, not the flat garment. Find where your measurements fall. Shown in cm.

Same chart in inches:

Size your top from your bust (and under-bust for supported styles), your bottom from your waist and hips, and buy different sizes top and bottom if you need to.

Good to know: our pieces are true to size unless the fit notes below say otherwise. Swim fabric relaxes a little when wet, so if you're between sizes, go with your usual size. Most styles come in XS to XL; Cipria comes in XS to L. If you're a D cup or above, the Balconette gives you the most support.

Fit notes by style

Tops

• Micro Triangle Top: our smallest, cheekiest cut, made deliberately micro. Your usual size gives you the barely-there look it's designed for. If you'd like more coverage, most people go up 1 to 2 sizes. Adjustable neck and back ties help you dial in the fit.
• Fiori di Mare Classic Triangle: a triangle with more coverage than the micro. True to size, with adjustable neck and back ties.
• Cipria Classic Triangle: sized the same as the Fiori di Mare triangle, but cut lower, so it sits lower on the chest with a little less coverage. True to size, with adjustable neck and back ties. Each size up adds about 1cm to every edge of the cup.
• Balconette Top: a fuller, more structured cup with more support and lift, and our pick for D cups and above. Size from your under-bust. True to size.
• Knot Bandeau Top: strapless, sitting across the bust with a knot front. It ties at the back, so you can tighten it for a secure fit. If you're between sizes, size up for more coverage.
• Ruched Top: gathered stretch fabric that hugs and adapts to the body, so it's forgiving across sizes. True to size.

Bottoms

• Thong, Tie Side and Thin String: cheeky, minimal coverage. Sizing sits close to your everyday underwear size. True to size, or size up for a little more coverage. Tie-side ties are adjustable.
• Cipria Tie-Side Bottom: a cheeky cut with ties at each hip, so the fit adjusts to you. True to size. Each size up adds about 1cm of coverage front and back.
• Everyday Bottoms: our fuller-coverage bottom with a more generous cut. True to size.
• Wide Strap Bottoms: a wider band at the hip, made to pair with the Balconette. The coverage is the same in every size, so choose by your hip measurement; sizing up only loosens the fit. True to size.

One piece

• One Piece Swim: for a full one-piece, torso length matters as much as bust, waist and hip, so factor that in if you're much taller or shorter than average. True to size.

If you're between sizes

• Adjustable styles (triangle tops, tie-side bottoms): either size works, adjust the ties to fit.
• Bandeau: size up for more coverage.
• Wide Strap Bottoms: go with your usual size. Coverage doesn't change between sizes.
• Everything else: go with your usual size, or size up if you'd prefer more coverage.
