To wear this bikini bottom, simply step into it and adjust it to fit your waist comfortably. When swimming, make sure it's properly in place to avoid any slippage. After use, rinse it with fresh water to remove salt, chlorine, or sand. Don't wring it out too hard as it might damage the fabric. Hang it to dry in a shaded area. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach when washing. You can machine - wash it on a gentle cycle if needed, but it's best to use a laundry bag to protect the delicate ruffle and bow details. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep the color and fabric in good condition.
