Wavy-Texture Beaded String Cheeky Bikini Bottom

Verified claims

Washing

Hand wash in cool water with pH-neutral detergent; avoid machine washing and ultrasonic cleaners.

Storage

Store separately in a mesh bag to prevent snagging and extend bead life.

Fabric support

Recycled polyester outer and reprocessed nylon lining resist moisture stretch, keeping side ties stable.

Resistance

Resists chlorine, saltwater, and UV damage better than all-nylon swimwear.

Drying

Fabric dries quickly and stays breathable, reducing waterlogged feel.

Fit

Fabric snaps back to shape, preventing sagging after wet use.

Material credentials

Lining: molecularly identical, avoids 4.1t CO₂, diverts 1.1t waste per ton.

Durability

Outer: chlorine/UV/saltwater resistant; lining: shape-retaining and sunscreen-resistant.

Value

At $39 CAD, fully recycled material story undercuts virgin-synthetic by ~$7.

Materials

Uses recycled polyester outer and 85% reprocessed nylon lining, unlike virgin polyamide in similar bottoms.

Embellishment

Adorned with faceted faux-semi-precious stones for a refined look versus clear beads on comparable bottoms.

Fabric performance

Chlorine/UV-resistant and quick-drying, outperforming polyamide in pool and sun exposure.

Adjustability

Side ties adjust leg opening and coverage; no size change needed.

Bead attachment

Retying may stress bead attachment stitching over time.

Texture

The wavy texture is a subtle woven/beaded construction with physical depth.

Moisture management

Outer texture and lining boost airflow and drying for after-swim comfort.

Shape retention

Fabric resists bagging and stretching when wet, preserving fit.

Wavy texture: dry time and skin feel

• The recycled polyester blend is naturally water-repellent, so the bottoms shed moisture rapidly after a swim and never take on a soaked, heavy feel that would distort the cheeky cut's line.
• Polyester's high resilience gives the fabric a muscle-like snap-back that prevents bagging out when wet, so the high-cut, tie-side design stays secure and flattering without readjustment.
• The subtle wavy surface is not just visual—it creates micro air pockets within the knit that promote airflow, helping the fabric breathe instead of sticking when the wearer moves from water to sun.
• Textured polyester blends are inherently less prone to UV- and chlorine-induced fading, so the rich black hue and the contrast of the faux-stone charms remain deep and clear through extended sun and swim seasons.
• Polyester fibers resist degradation from chlorine and salt better than nylon, keeping the black color vibrant and the fabric's elasticity intact even after daily pool or ocean exposure.

How it stacks up to similar beaded bottoms

• As a Simons exclusive, the Wavy sits outside the multi-brand fast-fashion rotation — it is designed solely for the Canadian retailer, which can translate to less market saturation and a design that is not chasing a universal trend, unlike Mango’s globally distributed beaded bottom.
• The MANGO Beaded Bikini Bottoms have already sold out at thecoolhour.com — a common outcome for on-trend beaded swim pieces — which makes the in-stock Simons Wavy at $39 CAD a rare find in this price bracket without needing to hunt restocks.
• The Mango beaded bottom uses an 85% polyamide / 15% elastane blend — a fully virgin synthetic makeup — whereas the Simons Wavy at $39 CAD substitutes a recycled polyester main fabric and reprocessed nylon lining, delivering a more ecological material story without any price premium over this direct fast-fashion competitor.
• Unlike the Mango beaded bottom, which relies on fixed ruched side panels, the Simons Wavy uses adjustable lace-up ties with charms, letting the wearer cinch or loosen the leg opening — a design that accommodates wider variation in hip and waist dimensions without moving up or down a size.
• The Wavy’s tie strings feature faceted faux-semi-precious stones that bring a gem-like shimmer, while the Mango bottom plants a cluster of light-catching clear beads on one hip — the Wavy’s embellishment reads as more substantial and jewelry-inspired, elevating a simple black bikini bottom beyond a basic swim piece.

Reprocessed nylon lining: comfort and eco-background

• The reprocessed nylon lining provides a soft, breathable feel and dries quickly once you’re out of the water, reducing that clammy, heavy sensation that can linger in a bikini bottom after a swim.
• Reprocessed nylon maintains its shape and elasticity even after repeated wear and washing, so the bikini bottom holds its snug, high-cut cheeky fit without bagging out or losing tension over multiple summers of use.
• Producing regenerated nylon saves approximately 16.2 gigajoules of energy and avoids 4.1 tonnes of CO₂ per metric ton compared to virgin nylon, meaning the lining’s carbon footprint is a fraction of what a conventional nylon version would impose.
• The lining’s regenerated nylon offers excellent resistance to chlorine and sunscreen creams, slowing the chemical degradation that makes swimwear thin and discolor after frequent pool sessions — this extends the garment’s lifespan noticeably.
• The raw material for reprocessed nylon often comes from discarded fishing nets and fabric scraps, and roughly 1.1 tonnes of waste are kept out of landfills for every metric ton produced, so the lining actively helps reduce ocean plastic pollution.
• Regenerated nylon shares the exact polyamide 6,6 molecular structure of virgin nylon, so the 85% reprocessed nylon lining feels just as soft, stretches with the same elasticity, and springs back to shape identically to a conventional high-end swim liner.

How recycled polyester holds up in water

• Recycled polyester has extremely low moisture absorbency, so the fabric sheds water and dries in minutes — this not only prevents the heavy, sagging feel when getting out of the water but also minimizes the contact time between the fibers and any pool chemicals or salt, reducing the cumulative damage that can weaken elastane and cause bagging over repeated use.
• The recycled polyester blend in the outer fabric, likely combined with elastane, benefits from polyester’s inherent resilience — the fiber is known for holding its shape and resisting stretching out; even with the adjustable tie sides, the main fabric will bounce back to form after wear, and its resistance to chlorine-induced elasticity loss means the bottom won’t become loose and shapeless after a few pool sessions.
• Recycled polyester fibers share the same stable chemical structure as virgin polyester, making the outer fabric inherently resistant to the oxidation caused by chlorine; the outer will therefore resist the elastic degradation and surface abrasion that can occur in nylon suits after repeated pool exposure, helping the bottom maintain its structural integrity through season after season of chlorinated use.
• The benzene rings in polyester’s molecular backbone absorb UV radiation and dissipate it as heat rather than degrading the polymer chain, giving the recycled polyester outer a natural UV shield; coupled with polyester’s reputation for holding dye exceptionally well, the black colorway will resist fading and keep its depth even after prolonged sun and saltwater exposure, outlasting typical nylon swimwear.
