Lots of detail to this bikini. The fabric shimmers a little like lurex and is of the loveliest colours, violet, soft pink and white. The print is of gold and silver chains and there is a detachable gold chain that crosses from hip to hip on the bikini bottoms. The bottoms also give great coverage and the sides are approximately 3 inches deep. The top is slightly padded and is underwired to give better lift and shape to the bust. Metal clasps fasten the bikini top at the back to prolong the life of the bikini.
