Monroe Underwire Bikini Top - Cherry Gingham
Fit & Sizing
Models wear
- Georgia wears a size 10E top and 8 cheeky bikini bottoms.
- Britt wears a 12D top and 12 full coverage bottoms.
Bust support is personal, so we engineered this from the underwire out, not adapted from a smaller pattern and stretched. Proper cup depth, underwire geometry matched to fuller busts, and straps rated to actually carry real weight without digging. Available 8D–18H.

Soft-touch swim fabric, chlorine and UV resistant, built to hold its shape season after season.
Rinse in cold water after each wear, avoid the dryer, and store flat.
Crafted from printed Acetex, made up of 82% polyester and 18% elastane (spandex).

The Monroe is engineered from the underwire out for D to H cups. Custom wires, real cup depth, and a J-hook back that holds through a dive, not just a photo.

THREE MEASUREMENTS. TWO MINUTES.
- Underbust: snug, level, where the wire sits. That's your band.
- Overbust: the fullest point, in an unpadded crop.
- Waist and hips for bottom. If they point to different sizes, book a fitting.

BUILT FOR THE WEIGHT
Support is in the details. So we didn’t settle for off-the-shelf hardware.
We invested in custom tooling for the J-hook, underwires and back hook, designed around D–H cup fit rather than adapted from a smaller pattern.
It’s also why it holds when you’re in the water, not just in the mirror.
BETWEEN TWO CUPS?
Bust support is personal, and guessing it from a size chart alone rarely gets you there.
Start with your band - snug, not tight, sitting level all the way round. Then your cup: if the wire's not sitting flat against your ribs, or there's gaping at the top, you may need a proper fitting.
Still unsure? Book a fitting and we'll tell you your size. If we get it wrong, the return is on us.
FROM OUR FIT MODELS
I love the cups. Having a bigger bust, it fits really well and the coverage is great. The cut is really cute with the style and the colour.
I'm so happy that a brand has catered towards us with the bigger busts. it's really rare to find a cup that comes around on the outside, especially for my type. I love it so much, i'm obsessed.
It's so nice to wear swimwear that holds me in, without fully minimising my chest! The cross hook structure at the back is a game changer, not only for support (especially when actually swimming), but for the lift it provides also. The gingham is also the cutest! This set makes me feel feminine, without feeling like my chest is the center of attention. A big win for the small band big bust ladies 🤍
Still have questions about the monroe top?
Does the Monroe top have underwire?
Yes. It looks like a triangle, fits like a bra. The underwire is built in, so it actually holds you rather than just covering you. If wire-free is your thing, this one's not it, and that's okay, we'll point you elsewhere.
Will it actually hold up in the water, or is this a "look but don't swim" situation?
Built for the ocean, not just the poolside photo. The underwire, the cut and the extra j-hook at the back are engineered to stay put through actual movement - diving in, swimming laps, chasing kids, whatever your summer looks like.
How much cleavage will show?
Some. It's designed to sit as close to a classic triangle as an underwire allows. If you prefer more coverage up top, this may not be your piece, and that's fine.
I’m between cup sizes. Which do I order?
Book a fitting before you order. We'll reply with your exact size, and you're covered by our Fit Guarantee: free returns if it doesn't fit (Australian orders).
Do the top and bottoms run true to size?
Yes, according to our fit models. This is our first drop, so tell us how yours fits. Your feedback shapes Drop 002.
What if it doesn't fit when it arrives?
Book a fitting first and returns are free (Australian orders). Without a fitting, we still refund within 14 days; you cover return postage.
