Once you find your perfect swimsuit, you have to ensure it lasts. While throwing everything in the washer on cold is a tempting, quick option, let us be the first to tell you that is NOT the solution here. Make sure you get the most out of your favorite swimsuits by taking care of them through correct wear, wash, and storage. Already made some mistakes? No worries, stay tuned for our tips on reviving damaged suits!
Not only does taking care of your swimwear keep it looking in top shape, but it also extends the overall life of the garment. One of our biggest focuses here at PQ Swim is protecting our planet by making consciously sustainable decisions through every step of design, production, and distribution. Fast fashion has a severe impact on our environment so at PQ we’re committed to designing styles that will last you a lifetime. We design every swimsuit with durable, high quality fabrics and timeless styles that are meant to stand the test of time!
Okay so maybe you’ve already made some mistakes, who hasn’t? Have no fear, there is still hope! One of the most common challenges we see is customers who have ignored the wash instructions and thrown their delicate bikinis in the washing machine, only to be ruined. While not everything can be fixed, stay tuned for our tutorial to revive the macrame on our classic Isla Tri Top. (coming soon!)
In conclusion, if there’s one takeaway you get from all this, take good care of those kinis!! Properly wearing, washing, and storing swimsuits goes beyond preserving the items in your own closet, it’s about reducing unnecessary waste for the good of our planet.
