Shiny Italian Lycra is the Latest Trend in Elegant Bikini Fabrics

Category: Micro Bikinis

The fabric you choose for your bikini shoots matters. How you feel about yourself in your bikini also really matters. A sexy, comfortable feeling is everything when wearing a micro bikini. The best in soft and elegant bikinis is here–say hello to shiny Italian lycra. This latest trend from Malibu Strings comes in only the most gorgeous of color choices and in any bikini cut imaginable. From bright solids to ruffle-edged and silky neutrals, these stringed bikinis are as dreamy looking as they feel. There’s even some rhinestone bling available, too. These shiny Italian lycra bikinis bring a whole new level to elegant swimwear, let’s explore why.

Lycra is a brand name for elastane, a synthetic fabric of polyester and polyurethane. This moisture wicking fabric is the perfect bikini material and is typically produced into a more matte look and finish. While a matte style is more prominent, this material also comes in luxurious shiny and wet-looks. Italian lycra is elastane that is one-hundred percent made in Italy and is oh so luxurious. Its colorfast properties also makes it an excellent fabric choice for brighter colors while creating a richness to neutral color palettes. Elastane is a four-way stretch capacity fabric, which means this material holds its shape very well. It provides you with plenty of movement without stretching out your bikinis, making them too loose for wear. With all these great features, it’s no wonder that soft Italian lycra is all the rage in swimwear right now. And with so many different bikini styles to choose from, you’ll easily find your new favorites, if not too many favorites.

We’ve established the most beautiful thing about shiny lycra is its ability to look good in any color or bikini style. Malibu Strings offers a wide range of options in this advanced and elegant material. From gorgeous neutral tones, to brightly colored ruffled looks, this shiny Italian lycra comes in every color imaginable. There are many variations to this bikini, too, including lettuce edged triangle tops, crystals and halter tops, and even bandeau styles. Bottoms are more varied including the new sin city bottom, a classic bikini look and plenty of micro and stringed options. The Malibu crystal string is a perfectly elegant choice and personally our favorite from this brand. Whether you preferred tied bikinis or booty shorts, Malibu Strings has every bikini style imaginable in this beautiful swimwear material.

Your micro bikini should always make you feel your sexiest, while still wearing comfortably. It’s important to choose the best materials when selecting your next favorite bikini for the coming summer. As the poolside parties and bbq’s begin, pick your next bikini with the hint of elegance Italian lycra provides. Malibu Strings’ Italian lycra line is the finest in feminine, silky swimwear. It’s perfect for elevating your next show stopping photoshoot or your confident presence at a pool party. Stand out beautifully amongst the crowd in the most refined way in the ruffled look and sexy feel of shiny lycra.
