Brazilian & Cheeky Bikini Slips
A Brazilian bikini slip (cheeky bikini slip) is for those who like to add a little extra flair to their beach look. This slip is cut higher at the back than a classic bikini bottom, making your legs appear longer and giving you a playful, flirty look. The Brazilian bikini slip comes in two variants: regular and tanga.
High-Cut Bikini Bottoms
A high-cut bikini bottom makes your waist appear narrower and transforms your legs into long, sexy legs. With minimal coverage of the buttocks, this slip gives you a flattering appearance. Combine this high-cut bikini bottom with one of our bikini tops and create your perfect bikini yourself. We offer both a regular and a high-waist version for extra comfort and style.
String Bikini Slip
This bikini bottom looks just like a string you wear as underwear and therefore barely covers your buttocks. With minimal coverage of the buttocks, this slip is perfect if you don't want to see tan lines. To wear this bikini slip, you need to have some confidence, as you'll be lying on the beach with your buttocks exposed!
High waisted bikini bottom
A high-waisted bikini bottom features a high rise that sits above the navel. This style is not only incredibly comfortable but also exceptionally fashionable. Because of the higher fit, it accentuates your natural curves in a flattering way and creates a beautiful hourglass figure. Furthermore, the high-cut sides make your legs appear optically longer, resulting in an elegant and streamlined silhouette on the beach.
Tanga bikini bottoms
A cheeky tanga bikini bottom is a seductive middle ground that reveals just a bit more of your glutes than a standard brief. In terms of coverage, this style sits perfectly between a Brazilian cut and a thong, creating a flattering and lifting effect. The cheeky tanga often features a higher leg cut, which makes your legs appear optically longer and gives you an extra boost of confidence on the beach or by the pool.
