Fit Advice
All stretch fabrics loosen slightly when wet so we recommend for your swim & surfwear to feel snug and firm when tried on dry, on land.
If inbetween sizes, size down for solid colours and consider sizing up for print fabric styles as print styles run slightly tighter.
For larger busts D+, we do recommend sizing up in tops.

Why We Designed This
Designed for active water activities, our cropped tankini top offers decent bust support though we do recommend layering with a rashguard in those scorching midday sessions.
Our Swim is Made from Recycled Materials
Since 2016, we have chosen to source and use ECONYL® regenerated nylon in our surf garments. Why? ECONYL® uses synthetic waste such as industrial plastic, waste fabric, and fishing nets from oceans, then recycles and regenerates them into a new nylon yarn that is exactly the same quality as virgin nylon.
As a small business, we are a constant work in progress doing the best we can with the resources we have. And while we research and sample alternative materials to nylon-based textiles, we will continue to use this next best option of regenerated nylons.

Love how this feels and looks. I was worried about the size as I’ve found Salt Gypsy very small in the past but this fits just right for me (size 14, DD cup).

The sign for me of a great swimsuit with the right fit is how much I notice I’m wearing it. After a 5 hour session, when I went to take it off, I realised I hadn’t thought about it or adjusted it once. It’s perfect 🤩 the sizing is accurate and the fit is perfect imo

This is super cute, and the colour combo is fab, but it’s pretty see through once it’s wet. I have a friend who has it in the chilli with baby blue trim who has the same issue- not sure if the fabric is different from earlier cossies? I have quite a few Salt Gypsy sets and they have been absolutely fine (in fact, I love them which is why I have so many!)
