Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This bathing suit is essentially a twisted bandeau top and a bikini bottom, with twisted bands of lycra in between to hold it together. Realistically, it needs a halter tie or something to keep it up.

i love this swimsuit soo much, it seems very retro 1950’s and 60’s but with a very sexy twist! Have you thought of using bra cups or boning rather than make a halter? I really love it as is.
