The original tankini swimsuit began to gain its popularity in the 20s of the XX century and acted as sportswear. This model is universal because it can be worn by girls and women with any physique and type of figure.
What is it like?
The concept of a tankini appeared as a result of combining two English words: “bikini” and “tank top” (knit shirt). Swimsuit is the middle link between the fused and separate models, only the upper and lower parts of it are not combined. The style is not considered to be frank, closed female forms speak about chastity.
Beach suit consists of shirts and panties. There are also sets with shorts and skirts. Mike can be with cups or without them. To keep the top well, straps are used, thick and thin straps.
Materials
It is very important to purchase not only a nice swimsuit, but also a quality one that does not harm the health of its owner. Bathing suits are made from the following materials:
- Lycra is a durable, well stretchable synthetic fabric. Resistant to chlorine that lovers will enjoy swimming in the pool. A swimsuit should contain no more than 30% lycra. Otherwise, the air will not pass through the fabric, the body will not breathe.
- Tactel (a combination of lycra and knitted fiber) is a soft, stretchy fabric with good breathability. Dries quickly, not only in the sun, but also in the shade. Polyamide is a shine with a more pronounced gloss. If the addition to it is not more than 16% of lycra, then the suit will last for a rather long time.
- Microfiber - has corrective properties, tightens the shape and gives it beautiful shapes. Silky fabric is elastic, resistant to chlorine, dries in a short time.
- Nylon - quick-drying material. It is not rumpled, perfectly passes air.
- Cotton is breathable fabric. It will last several seasons if it includes at least 15% lycra. The combination of cotton and polyester is not the best - the swimsuit does not burn out in the sun, but after drying it will quickly lose its original shape.
