Using this bikini top is super easy. Just tie the thin string straps around your neck and back to get a perfect fit for you. When it comes to care, it's best to hand - wash it in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach as it can damage the fabric. After washing, gently squeeze out the water and lay it flat to dry. Don't wring it, as this might cause the ruffle trim to lose its shape. Also, when not in use, store it in a cool, dry place. Make sure it's not crushed so that the ruffle stays nice and the straps don't get tangled.
