CARAMEL COWRIE TIE BOTTOM — BLACK S
Only one exists. When it's gone, it's gone.
A black tie-side bikini bottom featuring two natural Cowrie shells, carefully hand-selected in Indonesia and placed on each side of the hips.
Recognizable by their smooth surface, warm cream and caramel tones and distinctive toothed opening, Cowrie shells have been treasured for centuries and are traditionally associated with the ocean, femininity, abundance and protection.
Each shell has been shaped entirely by nature, with its own unique colors, markings and character. No two shells — and no two Bali Breeze pieces — are ever exactly alike.
Designed with adjustable side ties, allowing you to customize the fit and wear it higher or lower on the hips.
The shells pictured are the exact shells you will receive.
A natural shell, worn as it was found.
Your shell came from the sea, not a factory. It has its own weight, its own edges, its own small imperfections — that's what makes it yours alone.
Rinse it in fresh water after every swim. Salt and sand are its only real enemies.
Treat it like a stone, not a fabric. It won't survive being sat on, leaned against, or dropped on tile or concrete.
Dry it in the shade, flat, away from direct sun.
Handled with a little care, it will outlive the season by years.
Fabric: double-lined, 78% recycled polyamide / 22% elastane (Vita Carvico).
Feel: smooth and supportive with great recovery. Sleek, swim-ready fabric that dries fast.
Stretch: balanced 4-way stretch — supportive with comfortable give, for muscle recovery and total freedom of movement. Petrol-free and kind to your skin.
Care: rinse in cold water after every session. Hand wash, dry in the shade. No tumble dryer, no fabric softener — that's what keeps the colours bright season after season.
Our pieces run true to size. For a snug, surf-ready fit, take one size down from your usual size.
If you're tall or have a long torso, size up for the one-piece. For the boardshort, size down if you want a close-to-body fit.
