Questions women ask us

Fit

How do I know my size?

Measure your bust over the form you'll swim in, then your waist and hips, and compare them with the chart in our size guide.

What if I'm between sizes?

[[TODO: Olga's rule — size up or down?]] If you're unsure, write to us with your measurements and we'll tell you which size we'd choose.

Do the suits work after reconstruction?

Yes. Many women still like the underarm and neckline coverage, and the pockets can stay empty or hold a light shaper.

Pockets and breast forms

Are the pockets on both sides?

Yes. Every swimsuit has a pocket on each side, so it works after a single or double mastectomy.

Can I wear my regular silicone prosthesis in the pool?

Check with the maker first. Many everyday silicone forms aren't designed for chlorine or salt water, and lightweight swim forms are made for the water.

Do the suits work if I'm flat or don't wear a form?

Yes. The pockets lie flat when they're empty.

Swimming after surgery

When can I swim after a mastectomy?

That's a question for your surgeon or care team. It depends on how your incisions and any drain sites have healed, and on any treatment you're still having.

Can I swim during radiotherapy?

Ask your radiotherapy team. Chlorine and sun can affect treated skin, and they'll know your situation.

Fabric and care

What are the swimsuits made of?

Lida, Marina, Natalia and Vera are 92% polyester and 8% spandex. Nadia is 87% nylon and 13% spandex. [[TODO: fabric for Ella, Inga and Kate]]

How do I wash my swimsuit?

Rinse in cool fresh water after swimming, hand wash with a mild detergent, don't wring, and dry flat in the shade.
