Solara is the warm one, and the Maya Top is the most versatile shape FAE makes — a scooped bralette with adjustable straps that wears as a halter or a bandeau depending on the day. One top, two silhouettes, no second purchase.
THE DETAILS
- Brand: FAE Swim - Style: Maya Top - Colorway: Solara - Cut: Scooped bralette - Wear: Convertible — halter or bandeau - Straps: Adjustable - Lining: Lined for extra support, no padding - Fabric: REPREVE® — 100% regenerated nylon from post-consumer materials - Available: Large - Condition: New with tags
FIT & SIZING — MEASURE, DON'T GUESS
FAE is an Australian label and grades tops by cup. A FAE Large carries a D–E cup — a wider bust range than most unlined designer swim tops accommodate. - Between sizes: size UP. FAE's own guidance across the range. - Worn as a bandeau, support drops — the straps are doing real work on a D–E cup. Halter is the more secure of the two configurations for a fuller bust. - Lined, not padded. Support comes from the lining and the scoop, not from foam. - Colour note: FAE shoots much of its photography on film and shades vary between production runs. Solara may read marginally different in daylight than on screen.
SUSTAINABILITY
REPREVE® is a regenerated nylon made entirely from post-consumer materials. Like FAE's ECONYL styles, it is also measurably more resistant to chlorine, sunscreen, and body oils than conventional swim fabric — the practical reason these outlast cheaper suits rather than simply feeling better about themselves.New with tags. Curated, not manufactured to order — nothing entered production because you bought it.
CARE
- Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every wear. - Hand wash cold with mild detergent. Never machine wash. - Press water out gently — do not wring. - Dry flat in shade. Never a dryer, never direct sun. - Let sunscreen and body oil absorb fully before dressing.
WHO IT'S FOR
D and DD cups. Anyone who wants one top that changes shape with the occasion. Anyone drawn to warm tones. Travellers packing light.
WHO IT'S NOT FOR
Anyone needing underwire — choose the Gigi. Anyone below a C cup; the Large will gap. Anyone who wants a fixed, structured silhouette.
