Forever Young Bandeau: Bandeau bikini with a red tartan print and black

Main fabric: 82% polyester, 18% elastane

Lining: 82% polyamide, 18% elastane

Polyester keeps the sharp lines of the check pattern crisp over time. On a bandeau, the material has a second job too: without straps, the underband carries everything, which calls for a fabric that holds its shape. The polyamide lining supports that further.

• Rinse with cold, clear water soon after wearing
• Hand-wash with a mild detergent for delicates, no warmer than 30°C
• Press out gently, don’t wring
• Important with strapless tops: lay the underband out straight while drying and don’t let it roll up. On a bandeau this band carries the entire load, and a distorted elastic costs you support permanently
• Always dry lying flat in the shade
• Keep the black metal elements away from perfume and sun oil
• No tumble dryer, no iron

The Forever Young Bandeau is handcrafted in Italy. On a bandeau, the quality of the work shows in the underband, since it alone is responsible for the support. Add to that the check pattern, whose lines have to run exactly horizontally across the continuous front, where even a slight tilt shows immediately.
