A racer-back tankini top in Lime Ricki’s Juniper Charm floral — a double-lined shelf bra with removable foam cups, in nine sizes from XXS to 4X.
Highlights
✓
Removable foam cups on a double-lined shelf bra — lift them out to dry properly after a swim, or leave them out for a softer shape. The second layer of lining means the print reads the same either way.
✓
Racer back that stays where you put it — the straps pull in towards the spine instead of balancing on the edge of the shoulder, which is what keeps the top in place through laps, a dive off the side, or an afternoon of being knocked about by waves.
✓
80% nylon, 20% spandex, rated UPF 50+ — Lime Ricki rates the fabric at UPF 50+, so the top is doing some of the work sunscreen would otherwise do across your back and shoulders. The nylon-heavy blend is also what holds a print’s colour through a season of chlorine.
✓
Nine sizes, XXS to 4X, sized apart from the bottom — a tankini top is bought on its own, so you can take one size here and another below without compromising on either. XXS is the exception on structure: Lime Ricki supplies that size with no foam cups.
✓
Rinse in fresh water, dry it flat — chlorine and salt take the spring out of spandex before they touch anything else. Rinse it, press the water out rather than wringing it, and lay it flat out of direct sun.
This is the Juniper Charm piece for someone who swims rather than sunbathes — a top with coverage through the shoulders and a back that will not shift mid-length. For a two-piece, put it over the Juniper Charm High-Waist Bottom, which is fully lined and rises to meet it, or over the Juniper Charm Ruffle Swim Skirt if you would rather have a skirt layer at the pool than a plain brief.
Pack it for the kind of holiday where the swimsuit gets worn twice a day, and let the floral do the decorating while the racer back does the holding. The rest of the range sits in women’s swimwear and the summer collection.
