Hey there, babes! It’s your girl Zara here—serving sass, sun, and swimwear realness all day, every day. And today? We’re talking all about something close to my salty little heart: sustainable bathing suits that don’t skimp on style. Because let’s be real: looking good while doing good is the ultimate power move.

So, whether you're jetting off to the coast or chillin' poolside with a spritz in hand, this blog is all about finding bikini two piece looks that are as stylish as they are conscious. We’ll dive into my fave fits from Dekota Swim, styling tips for max vibe, and what actually makes a bikini "sustainable" (hint: it’s more than just a tag). Ready? Let’s get into it.


✨ Real Talk: What Is a Bikini Model Bikini?

So babes, you’ve probably seen the term “bikini model bikini” floating around. It’s giving runway. It’s giving Instagram-worthy. But what does it actually mean?

A bikini model bikini = a cut that hugs in all the right places, a fabric that flatters your shape, and a vibe that says “I came to slay — and I brought SPF.” It’s the kind of suit you throw on when you’re feeling confident and crave compliments. (Same, girl.)

And here’s the tea — many sustainable bathing suits aim to combine style with responsibility, and Dekota Swim’s bikini model bikinis do just that. The best part? Dekota Swim’s got these in every colour of your sun-drenched dreams.


💚 What Makes a Sustainable Bathing Suit Better?

Okay, so here’s the lowdown — not all “eco” bikinis are created equal. At Dekota Swim, we’re not tossing around the phrase sustainable bathing suits just for vibes. While the fabric isn’t recycled (yet), the brand focuses on what really matters:

  • Timeless designs you’ll wear season after season

  • Durability that doesn’t quit (these suits hold up, babes — trust me)

  • Smaller production runs, so no fast fashion frenzy

  • Plastic-free packaging, because the only thing that should be wrapped is your beach towel

Like, yes please to sustainable bathing suits that love the planet almost as much as they love your curves.


👙 Swimwear That Slays — and Lasts

Let’s talk looks. Here are some of my all-time faves from the Dekota Swim lineup. These babes bring the drama, the fit, and the longevity you need.

🌊 Penelope Bikini in Black – The Classic Showstopper

This black two piece bathing suit? She’s an icon. The Penelope Bikini in Black is my go-to when I need something that’s effortlessly sexy with that timeless edge. Think Bond girl at the beach, but Gen Z and hotter.

🖤 Pairs perfectly with a sheer sarong, wet hair, and your go-to lip gloss.
👙 Find her in the bikini two piece collection.


🍑 Brooklyn Bikini in Peach – Fruit Salad Realness

I live for the Brooklyn Bikini in Peach. The peach tone looks so gorge against sun-kissed skin, and the flattering triangle cut is giving me major European summer vibes.

It’s soft, flirty, and low-key screams “yes, I’m the main character.”

Style tip: Match with gold jewelry, messy bun, oversized sunnies.


💐 Maya Bikini in Flower Field – She’s Romantic, She’s Radiant

If you’re craving something playful but powerful, the Maya Bikini in Flower Field is the moment. It’s giving Coachella meets island goddess. Soft floral print + flattering tie sides = yes, ma’am.

🌸 She’s made for sun-chasing road trips, pool parties, and looking cute while ordering overpriced smoothies.

💁‍♀️ Fit Check: Perfectly Snatched & Flawlessly Comfy

Let’s talk fit, babes. There’s nothing worse than a bikini that looks 🔥 but feels like a corset. Luckily, Dekota Swim nails the balance — every suit I’ve tried is:

  • Supportive but not stiff

  • Curve-hugging without the dig-in drama

  • Flattering for small boobs, big boobs, and everything in between

Size tip: I’m a size S on top, M on the bottom, and I always check the size guide before buying swimwear online. Highly recommend for that just-right fit.


☀️ Fabric That Feels Like a Sunset Kiss

Say goodbye to scratchy, cheap, fast-fashion swimwear fabrics. At Dekota Swim, our sustainable bathing suits are crafted from premium materials that feel like a gentle caress on your skin. We’re talking:

  • Soft AF (like clouds hugging your body) for ultimate comfort

  • Perfectly stretchy yet structured so your suit holds its shape and supports you where it counts

  • Designed to last season after season, no fading, no sagging—because sustainability means durability too

  • Quick-drying and resistant to that annoying soggy swimsuit feeling after a dip (you know exactly what I mean!)

Our fabric choices reflect our commitment to conscious swimwear—balancing luxury, performance, and planet-friendly values. Choosing sustainable bathing suits means you invest in pieces that go beyond trends, built for long-lasting wear and feel.
