Tidal Top

This halter bikini leans into a romantic, mid-century pin-up aesthetic with its deep maroon polka-dot print and scalloped edges. The triangle top features contrasting light-colored ties, while the matching bottoms are cut with a playful, ruffled skirt detail that sits low on the hips. It’s a nostalgic silhouette that favors decorative trim over high-performance technical design.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: Composed of 80% nylon and 20% lycra, this garment is a petroleum-based synthetic blend. These materials lack natural breathability and can trap heat against the skin, while also posing a risk for microplastic shedding during wear and laundering.
