SUITS   All competition suits are custom made upon your order, except the ones you see listed on the " quick ship “ page.

 

WELLNESS CATEGORY!  â€‹There are two styles of bikini that may be worn.  You have the option of wearing the current bikini style with connectors, or you can opt for the  closed side style, which consists of a V front bottom that comes up high at the waist and back.  These are generally worn with an underwire top., but you can opt for the triangle or molded cup.  Both styles are featured on our bikini pages. Very flattering look.  Please be aware that if you’ve got the standard bikini, it’s NOT necessary to purchase the new style! .

 

The price you see is all inclusive!-  WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET!   No surprises. No nickel and diming. No a la carte. If you wish to change connectors, there may be an upcharge, which is clearly stated beside each connector style. There is NO price change for substituting fabric or color, either.

 

 

We use  PRECIOSA CRYSTALS, OR AUSTRIAN CRYSTAL                                                            

 What we DON’T  use is acrylic rhinestones  DMC stones, or glitter glue!   All competition suits are fully lined, with pockets in the tops for pads, which are included with all suits except practice suits.  The straps on FIGURE SUITS have 3 loops each for adjustment and hook onto the back of the suit with clear plastic hooks.  Figure suits have a choice of 3 coverages for your bum- 5" (12.7cm) pro, 6" (15.24cm) rio, or 7"(17.78cm ) malibu. Photos of these can be viewed on the  " how to measure" page, and  on the header of each figure  suit page

 

 

TOPS are generally a standard sliding triangle , but a molded triangle cup that provides firmness and lift without an underwire is also now available. Also available is a bra type underwire top.  Unless a bikini is shown with the underwire already,  there's a  $35  upcharge.  They have extra components and are more difficult to make.  Top styles can be seen on the  "how to measure" page.

 

 

COMPETITION BIKINIS are butterfly cut, and gathered up the back, in  super micro,  micro, 1/2 , 3/4, & full coverage. Coverages can be seen  on the "how to measure"  page.  The suits are front lined, and the tops have pockets for pads, which are included.  By default, all our competition bikinis now have a crystal clip on an adjustable band!  If you prefer a tie back, please let us know when ordering.

Ladies, we do not sell crystal bikini connectors separately, without the purchase of a posing suit. The pictures of connectors are up there only should you decide to mix and match suit designs...

 

If you wish to change the connectors on a particular competition bikini, please take a look at the "crystal bikini connector" page- you may choose from any of these. Please contact me for a quote as the price may change. It may increase, decrease or remain the same , depending on which connectors are chosen.

 

 

I have had ladies ask if I rent suits- no.  I have also had clients ask if I can buy back or re-sell their suits. No to that also, but there are plenty of websites dedicated to re-selling preowned competition suits.

 

 

FABRIC SAMPLES  Because suits are custom made for each competitor,  you may choose a fabric other than what the suit is shown in.  There is no charge to change out a fabric. Pretty much any suit can be made out of any fabric. If you would like to change the suit fabric/color, please order as is on the website, then drop a note on our contact page with your color/fabric choice from the fabrics pages.   I prefer not to make figure suits from sequin as these suits have to have bound edges and end up looking more like a bikini division suit.

 

 

My current fabric stock is shown on the website, and changes periodically . If you don't see what you are looking for, let me know- chances are I can get it for you from our suppliers!

 

 

Please don't hesitate to ask for FREE FABRIC SWATCHES!  I like to send these out as there is no telling what colors look like on YOUR monitor!  Plus, there's nothing like seeing the fabric up close and against your skin to make an educated choice.  I don't want you to be surprised or disappointed in your color choice once your suit arrives...

GRÖSSE

 Eine gute Möglichkeit, unsere Passform zu testen, ist der Kauf eines Ãœbungsanzugs,    Auf diese Weise können Sie im richtigen Anzugformat üben und Ihren Showanzug nur für die Bühne aufbewahren! Wir können die Passform Ihres Ãœbungsanzugs anpassen, sobald wir ihn an Ihnen sehen, und zu diesem Zeitpunkt erstellen wir ein Schnittmuster mit Ihrem Namen, das wir für die zukünftige Verwendung aufbewahren! Dadurch wird sichergestellt, dass Sie die Bühnenfitness erhalten, die Sie sich wünschen.

 

 

WASCHEN & TRAGEN SIE IHREN BIKINI   Dein Anzug ist empfindlich! Bitte tragen Sie ihn nicht zum Ãœben, da er nicht dafür ausgelegt ist, wiederholtem Tragen standzuhalten, wie es bei einem normalen Badeanzug der Fall wäre.  Dies ist KEIN Strandbikini! Hitze beschädigt den Kleber! Bitte setzen Sie Ihren Anzug NICHT starker Hitze aus, z. B. wenn Sie ihn am Strand tragen oder in einem heißen Auto zurücklassen.  Um es nach Ihrer Show zu reinigen, waschen Sie es von Hand im Waschbecken mit so wenig Seife wie möglich und warmem Wasser. Verwenden Sie entweder Spülmittel, Shampoo oder Woolite, sofern das verwendete Produkt keine Bleichmittel oder Bleichmittel enthält. Der Aufheller/Bleichmittel ruiniert das metallische Finish, ebenso wie ein längeres Einweichen des Anzugs. Lassen Sie es etwa eine Minute lang einwirken und verwenden Sie eine kleine Zahnbürste, um Gerb- und Fettrückstände zu entfernen. Bikinibiss von innen. Sehr helle Anzüge können an den Außenkanten Flecken hinterlassen – das lässt sich nicht ändern und wird bei Ihrer nächsten Show auf der Bühne nicht auffallen. Wringen Sie den Anzug nicht aus, es könnten sich Kristalle lösen! Zum Trocknen entweder flach auf Handtücher legen oder zum Trocknen aufhängen. Auch wenn Sie alle diese Vorsichtsmaßnahmen getroffen haben, kann es sein, dass Sie bei manchen Stoffen eine leichte Mattierung bemerken. Ich weiß nie, welchen Stoffen das passieren wird; Da ich den Stoff nicht selbst herstelle, habe ich keine Kontrolle darüber, wie er sich trägt. Die meisten Hologramme neigen dazu, mit der Zeit stumpf zu werden – leider lässt sich das nicht ändern :-(

 

 

 

GRÖSSE FÜR FIGUR-/KÖRPERKÖRPERANZÜGE

Weitere Größeninformationen finden Sie unter „Wie misst man" Seite. 

 

Triangel-Tops gibt es in den Größen A bis DD und sie fallen fast normal aus.

 

Wenn Sie jedoch die geformte Körbchenoption bestellen, beachten Sie bitte, dass die Größen A und B richtig ausfallen, die Größen C, D und DD jedoch größer. Wenn Sie ein A sind, bestellen Sie das A. Wenn Sie ein B sind, bestellen Sie das B. Wenn Sie ein C sind, passt das B ohne Polster. Wenn Sie ein D sind, bestellen Sie ein C. Wenn Sie ein DD sind, bestellen Sie das D, und wenn Sie ein DDD sind, wird das DD passen.  Geformte Körbchen eignen sich am besten für nicht vergrößerte Brüste.  Wenn Sie vergrößert sind, ist ein Triangel-Oberteil die beste Option.

 

 

Wir berücksichtigen auch, dass alle Hersteller ihre BHs unterschiedlich dimensionieren. Viele Kunden tragen Victorias Secret-BHs, und sie haben die Größe eines Schminktischs. Wir stellen fest, dass Kunden in Crystallini-Bikinis und Figur-/Körperanzügen normalerweise eine Körbchengröße kleiner tragen.

 

XS untere Hüfte 30–33 Zoll oder 76,2–81,28 cm

S untere Hüfte 34–36 Zoll oder 83,8–88,9 cm

M untere Hüfte 37–39 Zoll oder 91,44–96,52 cm

L untere Hüfte 40–42 Zoll oder 99,06–104,14 cm

 

 

Achten Sie bei der Messung der Hüfte darauf, dass das Maßband um die breiteste Stelle der Hüfte verläuft und dass das Maßband um Ihren Po herum verläuft.  Es gibt Diagramme auf der Seite „Wie misst man" Seite, um Ihnen bei der richtigen Positionierung des Bandes zu helfen

 

 

Eine große Hilfe für eine individuellere Passform ist auch die Messung von Taille, Körpergröße und Rumpfschlaufe. Sie können diese Informationen per E-Mail an uns senden. Um eine Rumpfschlaufenmessung durchzuführen, platzieren Sie das Maßband an einer Schulter und lassen Sie es über Ihren Rücken hängen. Führen Sie es durch Ihre Beine und führen Sie es nach vorne, um es am ursprünglichen Ausgangspunkt an Ihrer Schulter zu treffen. Dieses Maß liegt je nach Körpergröße zwischen 54" (137,16 cm) und 66" (167,64 cm). Dies hilft uns bei der Bestimmung der Stringlänge und der Höhe, mit der die Seiten Ihres Figuranzugs angehoben werden sollen.

sizing for competition bikinis  

 

there is additional sizing info on the "how to measure " page. Once you've measured,  you can order right from the website.

 

Triangle tops come in sizes A- DD, pretty much run to size, and are cut narrower than figure suit tops.

 

However, if you are ordering the molded cup option, please be aware that the A & B size runs true, but the C, D, and DD run large. If you're an A, order the A. If your'e a B, order the B, but we will add pads. If you're a C, the B without pads will fit. If you're a D, order a C. If you're a DD, order the D, and if you're a DDD, The DD will fit.  We don't recommend molded cups for gals with implants- the triangle tops work best!  

 

We also take into consideration that all manufacturers size their bras differently. Many clients wear Victorias Secret bras, and they are vanity sized. We find that clients usually wear one cup size smaller in our bikinis and figure/physique suits.

 

XS bottom hip 30-33 inches or 76.2 - 81.28cm

S bottom hip 34-36 inches or 83.8-88.9cm

M bottom hip 37-39 inches or 91.44-96.52cm

L bottom hip 40-42 inches or 99.06-104.14cm

 

 

I have had many clients ask about coverage for caesarian scars and have found that raising the front rise 1/2"(1.27cm) seems to take care of the situation. If you have concerns of this nature, let me know. As I said previously, suits are custom made, and can be cut specially for you. However, suits that are specifically cut differently from our patterns are NOT returnable.

 

SPONSORSHIPS   We offer limited sponsorships- please note 2024 sponsorships are already applied

 

PAYMENT  Payment is accepted via Paypal on the website . It isn't necessary to have a Paypal account to remit- you may check out as a guest. If you prefer to pay by another method, we offer Venmo, Zelle, and Cashapp .  Just let us know which of these are your preferred method and we will invoice you manually.  

 

GIFT CERTIFICATES  We have them!  In any denomination. Contact us to order one to gift your favorite athlete!

 

 

If you decide to change the fabric on a suit, you may order as shown, and then drop us a note on the contact page to let us know which fabric you'd like instead.   There is no extra fee to change suit fabric or color!

 

 

SUIT TURNAROUND   We have found that a  4-6 week turnaround holds true for the most part.   However, this changes on a daily basis, depending on the time of year, how many suits are ahead of you, and what kind of suits are ahead of you! Best plan is to contact me when your suit is ordered and at that time, we can give you a pretty good estimate of when your suit will ship. We usually err in YOUR favor, and can absolutely state that we have have never been late with a suit. If we can't have it to you for your bikini competition or figure competition you'll be notified before you go ahead and order it.   Nobody needs that kind of stress.  Practice  suits  leave here in 7-10 days  . Bikinis with crystal connectors, but no additional embellishment usually make it out of here in 7-10 days too.

 

 

If you order a suit months in advance of your show date, we will get to it as soon as possible, but if another client orders after you and needs a suit for a show date before yours, we have to bump you for a bit. Competition dates trump everything else here , so please have patience...you will still have your suit a few weeks in advance of your show.

 

 

SUIT RETURNS  There is a limited return policy!  We will accept a return if we made a mistake- wrong color, wrong connectors, different size than what was ordered.... Returns on bloopers must be made within 10 days of receipt on UNWORN  suits.   A refund is issued after suit inspection.

 

We don't accept returns on a suit that has been altered from our patterns to meet clients needs, such as widening or raising the crotch, or a back bottom width that is different from our norm.

Only unworn suits are accepted back for refunds. If you decide to exchange for a different suit, or a different color, I must ask you to cover shipping for a new one back to you.

Refunds are  credited back to your Paypal , Zelle,  Venmo, or Cashapp account

SHIPPING   Suits are shipped both DOMESTIC and INTERNATIONAL ! WORLD WIDE SHIPPING!!!

Shipping is via USPS- fees are as follows;

USPS first class $9.00

US priority   2-3 day $17.00. Show suits are shipped priority in a medium box to accommodate the storage box that comes with each stage suit.

US overnight               $40.00

International priority $45.00 10 days-2 weeks

International Express $60.00 7-10 days

 

INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS Please be aware of your CUSTOMS and VAT fees. If this is to be a gift, please let me know- I will mark it as such on the customs declarations form... Also, please allow enough time when ordering to allow for any hold up through customs. It's difficult to foresee when this may occur so ordering at least 8-10 weeks in advance will ensure your suit arrives in time.

  • May color or connectors be changed on a bikini?
    Yes! You may choose form any of the fabrics shown on our website. We don't charge any extra to change suit fabric, and in most cases, connectors. There are a few connectors that may add $ to the suit, but let us know which ones you want and we will give you an estimate
