The Olympic Games played a pivotal role in reforming the swimming industry. In 1930 French designer Jacques Heim introduced the microkini. But only in the 1960s were bikinis widely accepted by young American women.

Swimwear Material

Swimming dresses for ladies are designed using water-resistant fabrics such as nylon, elastane, polyester, microfiber, and neoprene. Swim suits made from these stretchy fabrics provide comfort and durability and can withstand exposure to sunlight, saltwater, and pool chemicals. At Zivame you can find swim dresses for women with the perfect blend of materials to achieve the desired balance of features, such as stretch, quick-drying, and colour fastness. However, the choice of swimsuit fabric can depend on the type of swimwear and its intended use - whether you are looking for casual swimming, water sports, or want fashion-forward beachwear.

·       Elastane: With its UV-protective quality and snug fit, elastane commonly known as spandex is one of the popular fabrics used in swimming costumes. This synthetic polymer is often blended with fabrics like rayon, cotton, wool, or bamboo to provide the desired stretch while maintaining the shape and fit of your women’s swimwear with time.

·       Nylon: Nylon is another popular fabric used in designing a variety of swimming outfits.  Besides being water-resistant, nylon is a lightweight fabric that has quick-drying properties and offers stretchability and ease of movement while swimming. Its abrasion-resistant quality makes it a popular choice for designing swimming wear. Tactel, a type of nylon known for its softness and moisture-wicking abilities is a popular fabric used in high-performance swim suits.

How to Take Care of Your Swimming Costume 

Swim dresses for women have delicate and lightweight fabric that can often wear out due to harsh chemicals in chlorine water, and prolonged exposure to sunlight, saltwater, and sand. Therefore it is imperative to take good care of your swim suits to increase their longevity and durability. Besides, washing your swimming outfit after every use also improves personal hygiene. Some tips to care for swimming wear are as follows:

·       Soak your swimming costume in a tub of cold water for a few minutes to remove chemicals, salt, and sand. Gently rinse and wash your swimming wear under cold water.

·       Always use mild detergent for washing your swim suits. Avoid using bleach, softener, or strong detergents, as these can damage the fabric of your swimming costume.

·       Avoid tumble drying and using a washing machine for your swimming wear. Always opt for a hand wash and dry your swim suits in the shade to increase their durability.

·       After washing, gently press the water out of the swimsuit without wringing or twisting it, as this can damage the fibres and shape.

·       Always store your swimming dress flat or folded neatly in a dry and cool place. Avoid leaving it balled up in a wet bag or locker, as this can lead to mould and mildew growth.

·       Avoid contact with sunscreen and other body oils as they can damage the fabric and cause stains in the swimming dresses for ladies. Try to apply sunscreen before putting on your swimsuit or let it dry before wearing it.
