Customer Support/FAQ

How long will my order take?

Due to the custom nature, large choice variety and high demand of our swimwear, catalog orders are made as they come in which takes about 2 weeks, and are then shipped via UPS in the continental U.S and USPS overseas. Customers can request faster shipment, (for when orders are complete) by using the "comments" section at the end of the order form (we will advise of the extra charges and availability). Need suits asap? Check out the Grab-bag list, see below.

What if I need swimsuits sooner than 2 weeks?

In the "comments " section of the online order form type in the latest date of delivery possible and we will let you know the options (the more time you give us, the better the chance we can do it). We also offer the grab-bag option (very popular) which are made, discounted and ready to ship. Click here to email to us and request a grab bag list.

Swimsuit care

Do the metal parts or embellishments rust or tarnish? (answer) The metal parts and embellishments sometimes do change color over a period of time when exposed to lots of water. We recommend no prolonged use in water, drying of embellishments upon removal from water and definitely no "soaking" in water. For cleaning, all suits are to be hand washed in cold water with mild soap, and immediately layed out to air dry.

What is the Grab-bag?

The Grab-bag specials are on an email list that we send you- they are low price, ready to ship and full of one-of-a-kind suits and prototypes made from promotional fabrics - it’s really popular with models and photographers who need lots of different suits right away, but it’s enjoyed by everyone, especially due to the low prices (low as $29+ per suit depending on how many you buy) and “no wait” availability. Ordering instructions and prices are included in the e-mail list, along with a link to our secure ordering page. Click here to email to us and request a grab bag list. Or send a “request for sale suits” to info@sexyswimwear.com (please don’t send a blank email).

Do you make "custom" swimwear?

We only make the swimsuit styles found in the online catalog. Sometimes customers can have a fabric substitution, just type in your request for a different fabric (give the name or number of the new fabric) in the "comments " section at the end of the order form, and we will e-mail the options and charges.

What size do I wear?

Please note that our sizes tend to run "smaller" than “mainstream” swimwear due to our niche demographic of fitness inspired women, and that we usually put smalls in the photographs for maximum impact. For our size guide, we use measurements - height and weight, chest/waist/hips and cup size, all in inches and lbs- because sizing can be subjective (for example a size "5" from one manufacturer differs from another makers size "5"). Aside from review our size chart, you can also e-mail or use the "comments" section at the end of the order form to submit these measurements and we'll help suggest the best size.. Click here for specifics about sizing.

What are the different backstyles: Brazil, Thong, String, Scrunch, Halfback, Shorts?

Brazil is more "conservative" and covers the behind, more like a traditional suit with a slimmer cut. The thong is a piece of fabric shaped like a thick letter T in the back ( not used for coverage). The string, the skimpiest of all, is made of the straps on the suit, forming a skinny letter "Y". Shorts back also referred to as “Boy Shorts” or “Hot Shorts” look like shorts that are cut a bit higher and a bit more revealing. The Scrunch back is like a brazil back that is gathered down the center forming a “pucker” effect, and a Halfback is a sexier version of the brazil back. Click here for specifics about backstyles.

What swimwear "sponsorships" or "promotions" do you offer?

We have no promotions or sponsorships to give away or loan swimwear. We do offer swimwear at discount prices in our "grab-bag - our styles made of different fabrics...lots of one-of-a-kinds, all made and ready to ship" ( very popular with models and photographers-see above description). Click here to email us and request a grab bag list. Or send a “request for sale suits” to info@sexyswimwear.com (please don’t send a blank email).

Do you take model submissions?

We will post any model searches via facebook and twitter. Prospective Models are welcome and encouraged to send their pics to our fan page if wearing our swimwear in the photo.

Do you offer "wholesale" swimwear?

We offer wholesale on an individual basis. E-mail us with your request for wholesale and ALL specifics of your store.

Do you still make discontinued styles?

E-mail us with the style, the more info the better ( number, name, color, size, backstyle etc)... we may be able to make it for you, there may be a customization charge.

Do you have a paper catalog of all of your styles?

Yes, we have paper catalogs of the suits for the current year. Click here to order a paper catalog.
