This black one piece swimsuit from Misciano crosses its straps over a V neckline and lets two ruffles fall along the hips. The fabric is dense and stretchy: it holds the waist without ever squeezing, so the shape is supported and the movement stays free. Deep black holds its colour in salt and in chlorine, and reads just as well on a morning beach as on a summer evening by the pool.
This one piece swimsuit works as a tummy control swimsuit: a dark, sculpting cut that smooths the stomach and lengthens the line.
From first swim to last
- In movement : The crossed bust and adjustable straps keep the support in place. Nothing shifts when you swim or walk across the sand.
- In the light : Black absorbs the light and redraws the line. The side ruffles break the vertical and soften the hip.
- After several hours : The side gathers adjust in one gesture, the lining does not roll, and the fabric dries quickly out of the water.
- At the poolside : Chlorine and salt resistant, this one piece swimming costume keeps its colour and its shape swim after swim.
Why 82/18
The fabric blends 82% polyamide with 18% elastane, a ratio chosen for hold: enough polyamide for density and chlorine resistance, enough elastane for the piece to return to its shape after every swim. The full polyester lining covers the bust and the stomach, and it is what gives this tummy control swimming costume its smoothing effect without adding a layer. Seams are reinforced at the stress points, under the arms and where the straps meet the body.This attention to construction follows the approach of the house of Misciano: simple pieces, well made, meant to last several seasons.
Three ways to wear it
- Beach morning : A sarong knotted at the hip, flat leather sandals, a basket bag.
- Pool day : Under an open linen shirt, hair pinned up and wide sunglasses.
- Summer evening : Worn alone under a long kimono, this black swimsuit becomes a top in its own right.
It pairs with the rest of the swimwear collection and with the sarongs and beach cover-ups.
Sought after as a black one piece swimsuit as much as a ruffle swimsuit for everyday summer wear, it carries the whole season.
