Does the strapless top stay up?

A bandeau with no straps relies on the elastic band and tie to hold it. It holds for lounging and light swimming, but expect to adjust it after diving or laps.

What is the fabric like?

It is 80% nylon and 20% spandex, a standard swim blend that stretches and dries fairly quickly. Rinse it in cold water after chlorine or salt water.

Is this a one-piece or a two-piece?

It is a one-piece swimdress: a bandeau top joined to a skirted bottom. The shirred detail runs down the front.

How does the sizing run?

This listing is numeric size 14. Always For Me builds for fuller figures, so check the brand's size chart against your bust and hip measurements before ordering.

Can I wear it for lap swimming?

It is better suited to the pool deck, beach and casual swimming. The skirt and strapless top add drag and need adjusting during laps.

How does it compare with a strap or underwire swimsuit?

A strapless bandeau gives less lift and security than straps or underwire, so it suits lounging and light swimming more than active laps. The skirted cut adds coverage that a standard one-piece does not.

About the Always For Me Navy Polka Dot Swimsuit

This is a strapless bandeau swimdress from Always For Me in navy polka dot, cut in a skirted one-piece silhouette with shirred detailing. The fabric is 80% nylon and 20% spandex, so it stretches and holds its shape in the water. It has no straps, so the fit depends on the bandeau top staying put. It competes with other skirted one-pieces on coverage and print rather than on support, since strapless bandeaus give less lift than strap or underwire styles.
