Quick answer

Choose the Muse Bikini in your usual size, checking the size chart for stretch tulle and lace, then hand wash it cold and air dry to protect the delicate inserts. If you want more coverage, compare it with a hi cut brief before ordering.

Bikini vs hi cut brief: which cut suits your day

A bikini brief sits lower on the hips and offers moderate back coverage, while a hi cut brief rises higher on the leg and typically gives a longer, leaner line. The Muse Bikini follows the classic bikini shape with stretch tulle and lace insert panels, so it works well under low-rise trousers and skirts. If you prefer more coverage or a higher waist, a hi cut brief may feel more comfortable. Neither is better; the choice depends on your outfit and how you like your lingerie to sit.

Why delicate lace changes your care routine

The Muse Bikini’s lace and stretch tulle inserts are decorative and more fragile than plain cotton or modal. Heat, harsh detergent, and tumble drying can break down elastic fibers and dull lace. Treat this bikini like any fine lingerie: wash it gently, avoid wringing, and dry it flat away from direct heat. A few extra minutes of care keeps the lace looking crisp and the fit true.

How to choose, fit, and care for your Muse Bikini

Check the size chart before ordering: Measure your hips and waist, then compare with the Muse Bikini size chart. If you are between sizes, consider sizing up because stretch tulle and lace have less give than plain cotton. Do not assume your usual jeans size translates directly to lingerie sizing.
Try it on with the clothes you plan to wear: Put on the bikini under your usual trousers or skirt. Check that the waistband sits flat and the leg openings do not dig in. The lace back should lie smooth, not bunch. If the back lace rolls or the waistband gaps, try a different size.
Hand wash cold after each wear: Fill a basin with cool water and a drop of gentle detergent. Submerge the bikini and gently squeeze the suds through the lace and tulle. Do not rub or wring. Skip the washing machine even on a delicate cycle to protect the lace inserts.
Rinse and remove excess water without twisting: Rinse with cool water until no suds remain. Press the bikini between your palms or roll it in a clean towel to absorb water. Never twist or wring the lace. Twisting can stretch the tulle and distort the lace pattern.
Dry flat away from heat and sunlight: Lay the bikini flat on a drying rack or clean towel. Keep it out of direct sun and away from radiators. Turn it over once to dry evenly. Hanging can stretch the delicate lace; always dry flat.

Product facts

Muse Bikini: Insert panels of stretch tulle and lace, with detailed lace inserts in the back. The lace back adds visual interest but needs gentler washing than plain fabric, so hand washing is safer.
