Fabric suggestions
Swimwear stretch knits with at least 50% stretch horizontally and vertically (see stretch chart on page 3). Look for nylon or polyester knits with high spandex content. You may want to look for chlorine resistant fabrics for swimming pools and/or fabrics with a UPF rating over 30 for sun safety.
Swimwear lining provides extra comfort and coverage in your swimwear. It is optional but recommended. Look for stretchy nylon or polyester fabric specifically labeled as swimwear or swimsuit lining. You can also line Sunstar in lightweight power net or firm power mesh for more support.
