Winona Bikini Top
Beach Riot - $98
This triangle bikini top features a high-contrast ombré print transitioning from guava pink to pale mint, framed by a hand-stitched crochet edge. The construction relies on thin, adjustable spaghetti straps and a traditional tie-back closure, lending it a classic California surf-culture silhouette. It is a nostalgic nod to 70s craft-meets-swim, prioritizing decorative detail over high-performance athletic utility.
Safety Rating: Lowest
Analysis: The piece is constructed from a blend of nylon and elastane, both of which are petroleum-derived synthetic polymers that offer negligible breathability and high potential for microplastic shedding. The reliance on these plastic-based fibers, combined with synthetic dyes required for the ombré effect, places this garment in the lowest category for skin-breathability and toxicological neutrality.
