Hello there!
As you may have seen in one of my recent blogposts, this year I decided to get myself a Triangl bikini. If you don't know what a Triangl bikini is I'll tell a little about them. A Triangl bikini is a special kind of bikni made out of a fabric called "neoprene". Neoprene fabric is known as the fabric that is used for wetsuits for scuba divers, but the Triangl brand makes bikinis out of it. Neoprene is a very fine material that is known not to be that stretchy, which also makes the Triangl bikinis keep their shape for a long time.
After a long time of consideration, my friend and I decided to buy the bikinis together, and then split the money from the shipping, which is always 20$, no matter where you live. I ordered the bikinis sunday, the were sent Wednesday and the package arrived at Friday, and I was very positively surprised by the fast shipping. It says on their website it normally takes three to ten woking days for the bikini to arrive, and it only took about three for my order.
I got the bikinis in a very stylish black box that spelled "Triangl"on the top. Inside the box was my friend's bikini on the top, and then a wet bag to carry the swimsuit in. At first I thought I had only just got her order, and mine was still to arrive, but as it turns out, my bikini was inside the wet bag. I was a bit confused because that meant we only got one wet bag, but my friend wanted the stylish box the bikinis came in, so I got the wet bag and there were no problems there.
The bikini I ordered is the Ollie Twiggy Stardust-bikini, which is a normal triangle-top bikini with hipster bottoms, both in leather look. I must say I was kind of afraid to order the bikini because it had to be shipped all the way from Australia to Denmark (Europe), and I couldn't try it on before I bought it. I started by searching the internet for reviews to be a 100% sure which size I should get. I also chatted with some of the staff on their webside to get advice. I am a 75B in the top and a 36 in the bottom (EU-sizes), so I got the small top and I couldn't decide if i should get the small or medium bottom. After some conversation with my friend, and some reviews on the bikini on youtube and a blog, I decided to get the medium bottom.
As it turns out, the bikini fitted me perfectly and I'm really happy I got the medium bottom. I had also read somewhere that this particular leather-look bikini was less stretchy than the others, which wasn't very stretchy anyways.
The top also fitted me, I dont know if it would have been better in medium as well, but it still fits me very nicely.
So my advice if you're thinking of getting a triangl bikini is to get the bottom size (and maybe the top size) one size bigger, than you normally would, and especially if you're going to buy the ones that has a leather-look finish.
I am yet to try the bikini out in the water and sun, and I might do a review of the bikini in another blog post, because there is some things you have to keep in mind when using it, because of the neoprene material, which is also described on a little note you get in the package when you buy it.
All in all I had a really good experience buying at Triangl.com, with good service and a beautiful bikini.
