Women's Bikini Tops

Women's bikini tops in triangle, halter, bralette, bandeau, underwire, and wide-strap cuts, designed for mix-and-match with separate bikini bottoms across coordinated and contrasting prints. Cup-sized and S-M-L sized options, with shelf-bra, removable-cup, and underwire support construction. Top brands include Roxy, O'Neill, Billabong, La Blanca, Rip Curl, and Carve Designs, sized XS through 3X for the beach, pool, surf, and resort.

A women's bikini top sold separately from the bottom lets shoppers mix prints, sizes, and cup support across a coordinated two-piece set. The cut decision splits across the basic shape (triangle, bralette, bandeau), strap construction (halter, wide-strap, racerback, crossback), and support type (shelf-bra, removable cups, underwire). Most modern bikini tops are sold as separates, which solves the issue when bust and hip sizes are different proportions.

Cut Types

• Triangle Tops: The most-searched cut. Two fabric triangles connected by string ties at the neck and back, with the option to adjust coverage by sliding the triangles. Standard pick from Roxy, Billabong, and JOLYN.

• Halter and Wide-Strap Tops: Higher neck construction with tie or fixed straps that distribute weight across the shoulders, the option for D-cup and above where triangle tops shift during movement.

• Bralette Tops: Pullover construction with wider band coverage across the rib cage, designed for moderate to full bust coverage with no underwire.

• Bandeau Tops: Strapless straight-cut top with internal support, the option to minimize tan lines across the shoulders. Often includes removable straps for halter or crossback wear.

• Underwire Tops: Wired cup construction with shaped bra-style support, the standard pick for DD-plus and the closest match to a regular bra fit.

Support and Sizing

Bikini tops sell in two sizing systems: S-M-L sized (covers most cuts, with built-in shelf-bra or removable triangle cups) and cup-sized like 32C, 34D, 36DD (covers underwire and structured cups for accurate D-plus fit). Cup-sized bikini tops from brands like Jantzen and La Blanca deliver better fit accuracy for D-cup and above than generic S-M-L sizing.

Mix-and-Match Strategy

Shopping bikini tops separately from bottoms lets sizes split: a 36D top with a Medium bottom is common when bust and hips run different proportions. Coordinated print sets and solid contrast pairings both work, since most catalog tops use a standard color and print library that matches across the bikini bottoms collection.
