Start with the fabric, not the wash cycle
Your Triangle Bra & Bikini Set is made with super-soft, tree-derived TENCEL™ fibers and a signature zinc-enhanced lining. These materials are chosen for breathability and freshness, but they also need gentle handling to stay that way. Before you toss the set in the machine, take a moment to understand what you're caring for.
The bra has adjustable straps and a scaled hook & eye closure, while the bikini features a secure gusset and a single-layer design with soft, low-pressure seams. These details affect how you should wash and dry each piece—especially if you want to keep the set looking matched over time.
A simple wash routine for your matching set
Follow these steps to clean your set without compromising the fabric or fit.
- Fasten the bra: Close the hook & eye closure and loosen the adjustable straps. This prevents the hooks from snagging other items and helps the bra keep its shape.
- Turn both pieces inside out: Turning the bra and bikini inside out protects the outer surface and the zinc-enhanced lining from friction.
- Use a mesh laundry bag: Place both pieces in a mesh bag to reduce stretching and tangling, especially if washing with other clothes.
- Choose a gentle cycle with cold water: Cold water and a gentle cycle are kinder to TENCEL™ fibers and elastic components. Avoid hot water, which can break down elasticity over time.
- Use a mild detergent: Skip bleach and fabric softeners—they can coat the fibers and reduce breathability. A small amount of mild detergent is enough.
- Skip the dryer: Air-dry both pieces flat or hang them to dry. High heat from a dryer can damage the elastic straps and the stretchy underband.
Why the zinc-enhanced lining deserves extra attention
The bikini's zinc-enhanced lining is designed to keep you fresher, longer, but it needs proper care to maintain that benefit. Avoid harsh detergents and never wring or twist the gusset—gentle squeezing is enough to remove excess water. Also, wash the bikini after every wear to keep the lining effective.
Because the lining is a functional feature, treat it like the rest of the garment: no bleach, no fabric softener, and no high heat. These simple habits help preserve the lining's performance without extra effort.
Keeping the set matched: storage and rotation tips
To keep your Triangle Bra and Bikini looking like a set, store them together. Fold the bra with the bikini inside or place them side by side in a drawer. This reduces the chance of one piece fading or stretching differently from the other.
Rotate your set with other underwear to give the elastic time to recover between wears. If you notice the bra's straps or underband losing elasticity, it may be time to replace the set—but proper care can extend its life significantly.
Set details that affect care
- Triangle Bra & Bikini Set: The Triangle Bra has adjustable straps and a scaled hook & eye closure. Fastening the hooks before washing prevents snags, and loosening straps reduces strain on the elastic.
Triangle Bra & Bikini Set - Triangle Bra & Bikini Set: The bikini has a single-layer design and soft, low-pressure seams. These features make it lightweight and comfortable, but they also mean the bikini dries quickly and should be air-dried to maintain its shape.
- Triangle Bra & Bikini Set: Both styles are made with super-soft, tree-derived TENCEL™ fibers and a zinc-enhanced lining. TENCEL™ is breathable but sensitive to heat and harsh chemicals, so cold washing and air drying help preserve softness and function.
When to hand wash instead
If your set is heavily soiled or you want to be extra careful, hand washing is a safe alternative. Fill a basin with cool water and a drop of mild detergent, gently squeeze the garments, and rinse thoroughly. Avoid wringing—press the water out with a towel and lay flat to dry.
Hand washing is also a good option if you're short on time and only need to refresh the set between regular laundry days.
