You tie it on at the shoreline, the crossed straps settle over your shoulders, and the cutout catches the sun as you wade in.

This is the one piece for anyone who wants the coverage of a maillot with the daring of a bikini. Two straps cross over the chest and run to the shoulders, a wide cutout opens across the midriff, and the legs are cut high on the hip. A small gold tone ring sits at the lower front, and the back stays open between the crossing straps.

It is made of a stretch polyester and spandex blend, eighty percent polyester with twenty percent spandex, that hugs the body and springs back. Removable chest pads sit inside with no wire, and it comes in cobalt blue, offered with a front accent or with front and back accents, in sizes small, medium and large.

Why It Works

A cutout suit lives or dies on how the straps hold. Here the crossover front runs straight to the shoulders rather than tying at the neck, so the weight sits where it should and the shape stays put in the water. The high leg and open midriff keep it bold, while the removable pads give a smooth front without a wire.

How It Fits Your Routine

On a beach day it wears alone under the sun, then slips under a sheer sarong or shorts for the walk to lunch. At the pool the crossed straps hold through a dip without shifting.

Rinse it in cool fresh water after each swim to clear the chlorine or salt, and lay it flat in the shade to dry so the stretch lasts the season.

The pads lift out through the lining, so you can wash them separately or leave them out for a lighter feel.
