TRIANGL Swimwear

Hi Lovelies! I want to start off by saying how incredibly sorry I am for the lack of posts. These last two months have been crazy with testing and I just couldn't fit time in. But luckily Summer is here, and to be honest guys I COULDN'T BE ANY HAPPIER haha. Expect way more posts to come because I will try to post at least once a week. Okay so enough of that, let's get to the review! (: 





As you already know if you have been following me on my Instagram, I received my Triangl Swimwear the other day. Many of you may already be familiar with this Australian based company, due to it's massive overtake on popular social media sites such as Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest etc. But for those of you who have never heard of this brand, they carry both swimwear and underwear. They are mainly known for their Neoprene fabric bikinis (Neoprene is like the type of material wet suits are made of). 


 Ollie style in Billie Firefly 
Top & Bottoms: M/M

Due to all the gorgeous bikinis that they offer, it was really hard to determine which one I wanted but I went forth with the Ollie Neoprene Bikini in Billie Firefly. At first I was a bit hesitant because all of their online representatives told me I should probably look into the Chloe or Indy styles, since those styles are more adjustable. Regardless of what they said I still went with the Ollie style, and guys let me tell you I am obsessed with how it looks! This swimsuit was $79, however shipping was $20 (U.S.A). 






The top of the Billie Firefly bikini is composed of a vibrant orangy coral colour layered with black mesh on top. All made of Neoprene material as well. I was surprised when my package arrived because I already knew that my straps were going to be too big, since I have a bigger chest on a small frame. However, they arrived with adjustable straps! Another new feature Triangl has added to this style is the buckle in the back. Both of these new features are a HUGE plus because women no longer have worry about getting it tailored since sizing could be quite tricky. Overall the top fit me very well; there were no bulges or anything. Although there is no real support for the bust, the Neoprene fabric assures there aren't any slips or peeks. Also, because of the slight thickness in the material there really isn't any need for extra support. 





Now for the bottoms I would recommended choosing a size up from your regular size. Like I said before, the bottoms hardly stretch so it could be kind of difficult to meet your needs. Triangl has a sizing chart on their website, and I would really recommend you choose the size up from what it indicates you (especially if you are on the upper side of that size range). I'm a size 5 in jeans (US), and the Medium bottoms did fit a bit snug. Another thing I want to note is that the bottoms are kind of low cut (or low rise however you want to put it). Don't get me wrong, even though the bottoms don't have much of a stretch or are kind of low they are the most comfortable and form fitting thing ever!




Along with your bikini you receive this super cute beach bag (Neoprene material as well). The bag is just the right size to throw in a towel and other necessities. Inside your beach bag comes a care card and a brief explanation of how simple returns and exchanges can be made.





All in all, I am completely happy with my new swimsuit. It arrived to me within 5 days and their customer service has to be one of the best I have experienced. This swimsuit is definitely worth the hype for their amazing quality! Feel free to leave me a comment down below if you have any questions; I would be more than happy to help!

  1. Hi! What bra size do you typically wear? I was looking to purchase the Ollie style in a size medium, but I'm afraid it won't fit. Thank you so much in advance!!!

  2. And because each swimsuit has its own personality and specific function, a person needs more than one swimsuit to complement his different moods and functional needs.giejo Designer Swimwear
