Bikini Lining and Cup Construction

Lining and cups drive opacity, support and cost. Brief them early to avoid PPS churn.

Lining decisions

Specify face fabric, lining fabric, and whether bottoms are fully lined. Opacity in wet state matters more than dry swatches.

Cups and hardware

Removable cups, moulded cups, rings/sliders — each changes MOQ on trims and QC checkpoints.

FAQ

Fully lined or front only?

Depends on fabric opacity and brand standard — light colours often need full lining.

Removable cups?

Common for versatility; lock pocket geometry so cups stay put in water.
