Bikini bottoms come in all shapes and sizes. In this guide we’ll talk through all the possibilities, from cheeky barely-there bottoms to full coverage swim skirts and everything in between. 
There is a fit for every style and coverage level. If you prefer two piece swims over one piece then this guide is for you! Whether you’ve booked the trip, planned the beach day, or are just taking a dip in the hot tub we want to help you find your perfect Albion Fit.  

Why Bikini Bottom Fit Matters

Constant tugging or pulling is the fastest way to ruin a beach day. We want to help you find the perfect fit swimsuit bottom that is well made and will make you feel confident.

The first thing to do when shopping for a swimsuit is to consider what level of coverage you would like. If you are soaking up the sun and want minimal tan lines, you will love cheeky bottoms. If you are chasing kids at a pool party, you may want more coverage.

It’s also important to think about the styles you like and the swimsuit design; low-rise, mid-rise, or high-rise. All of these elements play a part in the overall look and feel of a swimsuit.
