The Tony Cheeky String Bikini Bottom in Tortoise Shell brings a glossy red-and-black animal print to a sleek, strappy silhouette. Warm copper tones run through the mottled pattern, while the back tapers for cheeky coverage.

Slim strings crisscross across the front and fan out toward the hips, creating open spaces that show a little skin. Gold-tone rings anchor the straps at each hip and catch the light against the dark print.

Crafted from our Soft Shimmer Fabric, Tony is double lined for a smooth feel against the skin. The gently brushed fabric has a glossy finish and four-way stretch that follows your curves as you move.

Tortoise is a fierce take on a classic, bringing together rich chocolate tones and hot red undertones in a print that feels both timeless and undeniably bold. Inspired by retro glamour with a distinctly powerful edge, the organic tortoise pattern creates depth and movement without ever feeling overly polished or predictable. The warm, layered palette gives the print a decadent quality while subtle variations in tone make every piece feel rich and dimensional. There’s something inherently self-assured about Tortoise - it feels like oversized sunglasses, gold jewelry, and a perfectly planned entrance. It carries the kind of old-school allure that only gets better the closer you look, balancing mystery with unapologetic standout appeal.

This classic cut is a timeless choice for those who want confident coverage without sacrificing style.

    honeymoon suit

    This is the perfect vacation bikini bottom. The fit is cheeky but not too revealing, and the strappy gold hoop detail give it such a luxe feeling. Very flattering suit.
