FAE Swim Birdie Bottom - Limoncello
Product Details
Limoncello in Baby Terry is the one people touch before they look. FAE's Italian terry knit has a plush, elevated hand that no flat swim nylon reproduces — and the Birdie is the shape that shows it off. Tie sides, adjustable ruched back, gold embossed rear plate.

Fit & Sizing — Measure, Don't Guess
FAE is an Australian label. A FAE Medium is a US 4–6. A Vitamin A Medium is a US 8–10 — same letter, four US sizes apart.
| Size | US | AUS | Upper Hip | Lower Hip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Medium | 4–6 | 10 | 34" | 37" |
- Tie sides make this the most forgiving bottom we carry — it adjusts at the hip where the Jones does not.
- Between sizes: size UP. FAE's own guidance.
- Baby Terry has more body than standard swim nylon. It sits slightly away from the skin rather than clinging, which reads as more expensive and more forgiving.
- Adjustable ruching sets coverage from cheeky to full thong.
- Only one unit in Medium. We can't reorder this colorway.
Sustainability
Italian Baby Terry is 85% recycled ECONYL® nylon — regenerated from post-consumer waste including ocean-recovered fishing nets — blended with 15% spandex for recovery. It's the most tactile fabric in FAE's range and among the highest recycled content.
New with tags. Curated, not manufactured to order.
Care
- Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every wear.
- Hand wash cold with mild detergent. Never machine wash.
- Press water out gently — never wring. Wringing crushes the terry pile.
- Dry flat in shade. Never a dryer, never direct sun.
- Avoid rough teak and concrete; terry snags more readily than flat nylon.
Who It's For
Anyone who wants texture over print. Anyone between sizes. Anyone drawn to a warm citrus tone. Mix-and-match buyers.
Who It's Not For
Anyone wanting full rear coverage. Anyone above a US 6 in this colorway. Anyone who swims hard in chlorine — terry is a resort fabric.
