Please note when trying on chlorine resistant swimwear it will feel different to normal nylon / elastane swimwear that is made to stretch with your body. But there are many advantages of chlorine resistant swimwear as you can see below.
 

Chlorine Resistant Curvy Swimwear

Chlorine resistant women’s swimwear does not contain the elastane fibres (Lycra or Spandex are the brand names used for the fibre base elastane), that are affected by the pool chemical, chlorine. When it comes down to choosing whether you buy a regular fabrication curve fit or plus size swimsuit with elastane content or a chlorine resistant curvy swimsuit it all comes down to your swimwear usage, activities you do, the look, the support or the comfort you require.
 

The Advantages of Chlorine Resistant Curvy and plus size swimwear

A Chlorine Resistant curvy or plus size swimsuit will last for season after season. Pros of chlorine resistant swimwear are:

• - Durable
• - Doesn’t become see through
• - Doesn’t breakdown
• - Launders easily
• - Doesn’t become saggy over time
• - Quick drying
• - Resistant to shrinkage
• - Snag resistant
• - Lightweight
• - Repels water

But in listing the advantages of chlorine resistant swimwear, it is very important to outline the reasons why not all swimwear is made out of 100% polyester and Yes there are reasons.

The biggest disadvantage of chlorine resistant swimwear is that it isn’t easy to stretch and get on. Other disadvantages include:

• Polyester isn’t as comfortable as nylon on the body.
• No powermesh – read our blog on the power of powermesh.
• No stretch - having no elastane means the swimsuit fabrication has limited stretch and return.
• Limited support
• No under bust elastic for bust support.

Because of the lack of stretch these swimsuits will never feel as comfortable on or fit you the same way a nylon / elastane swimsuit will.
