Bikini swimwear, bikini bottom & top
In terms of style, bikini tops and bottoms can be separated and mismatched or worn together. In order to attract more attention, we dare to mix and match and for the color, fall for a pink, red, blue, green, yellow or even orange bikini. But simplicity also has its effect with the black bikini. One word of advice : defy the trends ! Twist around prints, go from neon to stripes, then an ethnic pattern to a fringe or mesh bikini. Thanks to the numerous shapes and models sold separately, all the combinations are imaginable... and possible !
How to mix & match your bikini like a pro?
Wanna mix a top with a different bikini bottom? A red bikini bottom with a white tank(ini) top? A black push-up with a blue high-waisted bottom? (Almost) Everything is possible! Your creativity is limitless! However, there are some rules, some “DO & DON’T” that you should follow to do it like a pro. Let’s take a look!
DO
To mix & match your Banana Moon tops and bottoms like a pro, you have to know some combinaisons that always work. You can, for example, mix and match two solid colors together easily. You should favor a neutral one (black, white and grey) mixed with a true color. For example, a red top with a black bottom, a blue bottom with a white top… You know what we mean, right? Well, that works! And it is very popular and elegant!
Let’s continue! You can match a printed pattern bikini with a solid color BUT only if the solid color matches a color within the print. In other words, you should find the solid color in your printed pattern. If it is the exact same shade, even better!
Another one? If you can match a bottom and a top made of the same fabric, all the better! This will add balance and coherence to your match. It will be even more difficult for your friends to notice that they’re not from the same set.
A final gift? Tie-side bottoms and bandeau + tie front tops match perfectly.
DO NOT
We recommend you to avoid mixing two different printed patterns together, it is usually not a good match. A wild animal pattern with an hawaiian one?...Nope. They can rarely bring a nice result, so it is better to remove this idea from your mind.
Do not try to mix 2 different shades of the same solid color to create your bikini set. You thought that colors that are very similar can look alike and go unnoticed? Well, sorry, but you were wrong. It is way better to mix two true different colors, such as : pink and black, blue and white, coral and black… Two shades of the same color rarely look good together.
We keep going? We recommend you not to mix and match long sleeves full coverage to practice surf with a cheeky mini bikini bottom. A lot of options are available, but these 2 styles are too different to match. You should prefer a shorty or a classic pant to match with your long sleeves top.
Last one? Avoid as much as possible to mix two extremely different materials together. It is better that your top and bottom are made of the same fabric.
Originally with a bra shaped top and panty bottom, the bikini is now available in various models. It can be high waistline, low cut or micro thanks to the different bottoms available : thong, Brazilian panty or a shorty with more coverage. It’s also possible to choose from the various tops : bandeau, bralette, bustier, cup push up, triangle or underwire for larger chests. Underwires and straps are ideal for the largest chests. You have beautiful assets, but sometimes your breasts get heft? This is normal. Underwires and/or straps allow you to feel free to move inside and outside the water without any fear. Your bikini won’t slip with any movement you make anymore! In addition, underwires and straps prevent you from back pain.
Synonymous with seduction, stirring up passion over the decades, we have not heard the last of the bikini swimwear ! In 2024, it’s worn without complex or accusing looks, fully assuming its retro aspect. The bikini is compatible with trends and all styles : chic, bohemian, fashion, crochet, with side-ties, flowered or covered with patterns.
