Fabric suggestions Show/hide details
Swimwear requires specialty fabrics and elastics. Swimwear fabrics, elastics, and notions are designed to withstand sunshine, chlorine, and salt water. Using regular elastic or non-swimwear fabrics is not recommended. For the swimsuit, we recommend: a nylon or polyester 4-way stretch swimwear fabric with 15–20% spandex. For the swimsuit lining, we recommend: a nylon or polyester 4-way stretch swimwear lining fabric with 10% spandex. The lining is not required, but is highly recommended if your outer swimsuit fabric is light colored or becomes translucent when wet. For an unlined swimsuit, a gusset made from swimsuit lining fabric is required. For the overlay, we recommend: any of the swimsuit fabrics mentioned above as well as 4-way stretch polyester or nylon mesh or power mesh with about 5–10% spandex. We do not recommend compression mesh or power net for the overlay. For the inner bra, we recommend: compression mesh or power net with 50% 2-way stretch
