“This female-founded swimwear brand is my new obsession,” says Klausing. “The Cate top is so sporty and cool—I wear it on the beach, doing anything active outside, or even with high-rise jeans.” The lightweight fabric offers UPF 50+ protection, and the high-neck silhouette is effortlessly stylish. Adds Klausing, “It’s a summer must-have.”

Size & Fit

WE RECOMMEND SIZING UP ONE SIZE FOR THE CATE RASH VEST AS THE SIZES RUN SMALL. 

To find your perfect size, please refer to our size guide. The most accurate way to achieve your best fit is to check the size against your actual body measurements.

Our swimsuits are designed to be supportive and comfortable. If your measurements put you between two different sizes, you should go up or down depending on your fit preferences.

If you like your swimwear to fit snugly and to feel more compressive, pick the smaller size. If you like a more relaxed and comfortable fit with room for body shape fluctuations, go for the larger size.

Care & Composition

Care

If you plan to wear your swimwear in chlorine, we recommend the Black Sand colour. Chlorine is damaging to vivid colours, no matter how excellent the colorfastness and fabric quality are — so chlorine will cause the colours to fade. If you’ll be wearing your swimwear in salt or fresh water, any colour choice is great!

• 
  Wash before use


• 
  Wash with similar colours


• 
  Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water


• 
  Dry flat in shade
  


• 
  Avoid rough surfaces


• 
  Avoid high levels of chlorine


• 
  Do not bleach


• 
  Do not tumble dry
