Malta Bikini Bottom

This swim bottom is defined by its puckered, crinkle-texture fabric, which provides a tactile, matte finish in a soft peach sherbet hue. The cut sits high on the hip with a leg-lengthening rise, nodding to the high-cut silhouettes of the late 80s. It is an unpretentious, sun-ready piece that relies on the compression of the spandex blend to hold its shape against the body.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is constructed from a blend of polyester, nylon, and spandex—all petroleum-based synthetic polymers. These materials offer poor breathability and represent a significant source of microplastic shedding, with limited biocompatibility for sensitive skin areas.
