Learn how to choose the right size for the Skyline High bikini bottom, understand its coverage, and wear it with confidence.
Quick answer
To get the right fit for the Skyline High bikini bottom, focus on your hip and waist measurements rather than your usual clothing size, and expect a snug, supportive fit that sits high on the hips.
Why the Skyline High fits differently
The Skyline High bikini bottom is designed with a high waist and high-cut legs to elongate your legs and create a flattering silhouette. This means the fit is intentionally more revealing around the hips compared to classic briefs, so you need to consider both your waist and hip circumference when choosing a size.
Because the design draws power from your hips, the fabric is meant to hug your curves without digging in. If you are between sizes, it is usually better to size up for comfort, especially if you prefer more coverage or have a longer torso.
Coverage expectations
The Skyline High offers moderate coverage at the back, but the high-cut legs mean less fabric at the sides. If you are used to fuller coverage bottoms, this style will feel more daring. For a more modest look, you can pair it with a matching tankini top or a cover-up.
The double-layer fabric used in the Skyline High provides extra support and opacity, so you don't have to worry about transparency when wet. This makes it a practical choice for swimming and lounging.
Step-by-step fit guide
- Measure your waist and hips: Use a soft tape measure to get your natural waist (narrowest part) and the fullest part of your hips. Compare these numbers to the brand's size chart, not your usual clothing size. If your waist and hip measurements fall into different sizes, choose the larger size for a comfortable fit.
- Decide on coverage preference: The Skyline High has a high-cut leg, so it offers less side coverage than classic briefs. If you prefer more coverage, consider sizing up or choosing a different style. Check the back coverage in the product photos—if you want more coverage, size up or look for a fuller-cut bottom.
- Check the rise: The high waist should sit at or above your belly button. If it feels too tight or rolls down, try a size up. The waistband should be snug but not dig into your skin. When trying it on, bend and sit to ensure the waistband stays in place without pinching.
- Assess the leg opening: The high-cut leg should not feel restrictive. If the leg openings leave red marks or feel too tight, size up. The fabric should lie flat without gaping. Move around—walk, stretch, and swim—to confirm the leg openings stay comfortable.
- Consider the fabric stretch: The double-layer fabric is supportive but less stretchy than single-layer swimwear. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for ease of movement. If you are unsure between two sizes, order both and keep the one that feels better after wearing for a few minutes.
