Tribal Waves

The tribal waves crash in the mind’s eye even when the body is safely encased in swimwear. The "Tribal Waves" two-piece combines a black tankini top with a leopard-print bikini bottom. The black top’s double straps cross at the back, and the A-line shape flatters various forms. The bikini bottom is high-waisted for extra coverage. The materials are likely to be nylon or other lightweight blends, quick-drying and able to withstand both chlorine and saltwater. The sheen is slight but telling. The visual contrast between top and bottom is striking. The leopard print integrates orange and black on a white ground. The overall effect is of a garment that combines style and comfort, suitable for swimming and lounging. The top has no underwire, the bottom sits low on the waist. The chest pad is removable, the pattern printed. The stretch is moderate, the care instructions minimal. The transition from beach to street is implicit. The dimensions follow the usual range. The exotic is never overlooked, but the practical is never forgotten either.
