Product FAQs
We offer a range of styles of bikini tops, bottoms and one pieces expertly designed to complement every Odabash woman. Please see our list of helpful FAQs created to help you find your perfect fit and answer general product related queries.
Which products are best for offering a fuller coverage?
At Melissa Odabash we understand the importance of feeling comfortable and confident in your swimwear. Our range of bikini tops and bottoms are sold separately providing the opportunity to mix and match to create your own set.
Our range of halterneck bikini tops can be adjusted by the straps to deliver enhanced support and comfort, we’d recommend our best-selling Paris & Brussels styles for this desired look. Opt for the new Colombia style which features a clasp fastening and adjustable straps offering supreme comfort. A fuller bust should never have to compromise on style.
Shop our full coverage bikini bottoms to complete the look, our best-selling styles include Bel Air, which fits higher on the waist and Brussels which has signature fold over style bottoms which can be adjusted for a smaller or fuller coverage. For hipster styles which have a fuller coverage look to the Paris & Colombia.
Full Coverage Onepieces
Melissa Odabash offers innovative designs for fuller busts in the form of our thoughtfully designed one pieces. Look to the renowned Sydney, Kos and Lisbon styles to create a figure flattering finish with a little more coverage to create a functional & fashionable poolside style.
Which styles would you recommend for offering breast support?
We have a range of supportive and underwired bikini tops in a variety of colors and styles to deliver unrivaled body confidence and optimum support.
Supportive Bikini Tops
Our recommended favorite bikini tops include signature styles like the Bel Air, the Brussels, the Colombia & the Vegas. For styles with removable pads, look no further than our bestselling options including the Cancun & Grenada Bikini tops which feature adjustable straps and a wider triangle shape to create your desired level of coverage.
Supportive Onepieces
For one pieces which offer unrivaled optimum support look to classic Odabash silhouettes like the Tampa, Lisbon & Panarea onepieces. Featured in classic colorways in the new core collection and in paisley and ribbed swimwear fabrics.
What size should I choose if I’m larger on top or bottom?
Melissa Odabash aims to provide a truly personalized beach silhouette for all shapes and sizes, we offer the flexibility to select your bikini top and bottom size which is why our products are sold individually.
For onepieces if you are larger on bottom with a smaller size bust, we would generally advise to size up. If in doubt please email our customer service team who will be happy to help.
Product Fit
Sizing
All swimwear sizing is displayed in US sizing from US 2-12, some styles are now available in a size 14 as part of our curve swimwear. Our models wear our sample sizes which is a US6. Beachwear sizes are available from XS-XL subject to the product and some styles may be one size.
In general, how do Melissa Odabash styles fit?
Due to the luxurious Italian cut, Melissa Odabash swimwear fits small to size - therefore we would advise for you to size up to achieve the swimwear size we think you will feel most confident in. Please see our swimwear fit guide for more details on signature Odabash styles.
Our beachwear fits true to size due to the relaxed bohemian flare of the styles, designed to be loose fitting and flattering.
How do your bikini bottom styles compare in terms of size?
As some styles have a noticeably lower cut fit including our cheeky and tie side bikini bottoms we would generally advise to size up in these products in contrast to our high waisted style and full coverage bikini bottoms which have been specifically designed with a more generous fit.
If I don’t know my measurements can I use my dress size and bra size equivalents?
We have listed our model’s measurements at the bottom of each individual product to provide a visual guide for the sizing of each product. Our sample size is a US size 6. If you have any doubts please refer to our size guide or contact our customer service team via email.

Do your fabrics offer a flattering fit?

How should I care for my swimwear?

Please note that all knitted and crochet beachwear styles must not be hung to avoid any sizing or shape defects.
Are all Bikini products the same shade and fabric and easy to mix and match?
We want to make it as easy as possible to mix and match our bikini tops and bottoms to create your perfect look. However, please note that the variation of fabric colors is inevitable. If you have any doubts please contact our customer service team who can confirm if shades and fabrics may differ.
