CHEEKY CUT / FULL COVERAGE

Our Cheeky/Full-coverage swim bottoms prioritize comfort and modesty, offering the most fabric across the back and often sitting lower on the hips or at the natural waist. They provide a secure, stay-in-place fit that’s great for active beach days or simply feeling more covered. The shape smooths and supports the hips and rear while still giving a flattering, body-conscious silhouette. This classic cut is a timeless choice for those who want confident coverage without sacrificing style.

Our Semi-Cheeky swim bottom strikes a balance between modest and daring, offering moderate back coverage that reveals just enough.

    I have to have more

    This is that throw on and go piece that somehow looks insanely chic every time. It’s breezy, flattering, and gives that “I just stepped off a beach club in Italy” vibe I’m ordering another before it sells out.

    Instant Upgrade

    I didn’t expect a cover-up to change my whole look, but this one did. It takes any bikini from cute to effortlessly put together in seconds I’ve already had three people ask where I got it.

    Ocean EnergyAn

    This cover-up is EVERYTHING light, and soft and breathable. The print is so fresh it literally looks like the ocean on fabric. I tossed it on and instantly felt styled without even trying total “buy it now” piece.

    Perfect Little Layer

    This shirt is the perfect throw on piece. Lightweight, cute, and ties the whole look together without feeling bulky. It’s that effortless layer you didn’t know you needed

    Relaxed, breezy, and so versatile!

    I’m obsessed with how flexible this shirt is! It has that effortless oversized feel but still looks intentional and styled. The short sleeves and lightweight fabric keep it cool and comfortable, even in the heat. I appreciate that it runs true to size for a relaxed look but gives guidance to size down if you want a more fitted look. The straight hem and classic button placket make it easy to dress up or down. It’s the perfect mix of laid-back and polished - total summer wardrobe staple as the ideal swimsuit cover-up.
