The classic burkini is the foundation SKU of any modest swim brand. It is a three-part system — tunic top, leggings or swim pants, and integrated or separate head covering — that must deliver complete coverage while remaining light enough to swim in. The engineering challenge is real: fabric that covers the whole body becomes heavy when wet, clings where it should drape, and turns translucent if the base cloth is chosen carelessly. Getting all three right is what separates a burkini that sells from one that gets returned.

Set Components and Styles

A standard classic set includes a long-sleeve tunic top reaching mid-thigh or knee, full-length swim leggings, and a fitted hood or separate head scarf. Tunic lengths can be adjusted from hip to below-knee depending on market preference. Neckline options include a high round neck, a small stand collar, and a hooded construction attached at the shoulder seam. Leggings can be straight-leg, tapered, or flared, with elastic or drawcord waistbands. We also produce two-piece configurations where the head covering is separate, giving the customer flexibility in how she wears it.

Fabric Options

The primary base is a lightweight polyester spandex chosen specifically for its low water retention — the single most important property in a full-coverage garment. It carries UPF 50+ and resists chlorine and saltwater. Opacity is verified in the wet state during sampling, because many fabrics that look solid dry become unacceptably sheer when wet. For premium positioning we offer a matte-finish nylon spandex with a softer hand. Recycled polyester with GRS certification is available for sustainability-led ranges, and we can supply full documentation for your compliance file.

Construction & Craftsmanship Details

Long seams over the arms, torso, and legs are flatlock stitched, since these run directly against skin for the full length of the garment and any ridge becomes uncomfortable within minutes of wear. Cuffs at wrist and ankle use soft encased elastic that grips without marking. The tunic hem is weighted or side-slit so it does not balloon in water. Power-mesh lining is inserted at the bust for support and at the seat of the leggings for opacity. Waistbands use encased elastic with an internal drawcord. Where a zip is specified at the front or back, we use a corrosion-resistant plastic or coated metal zip with a fabric guard behind it so it never contacts skin.

Customization & Branding

Classic burkinis sell strongly in solid colors — navy, black, teal, burgundy, and grey are consistent performers — with contrast piping or panel detailing providing visual interest without additional print cost. Custom Pantone matching is standard with one lab dip round. Where print is used, we place it as a panel or border rather than all-over, which suits the modest aesthetic and reduces print cost. Branding uses woven labels at the inner neck, heat-transfer tagless labels, silicone patches, and custom hangtags. Full three-piece sets can be packed in branded boxes for a premium retail presentation.

Sizing & Fit Development

Grading runs S-4XL as standard, with extended sizing available. This category sells heavily in larger sizes and proper grading matters — the relationship between bust, waist, hip, and inseam changes across the range, so we re-draft rather than scale. Sleeve and inseam length should be confirmed against your target market, as preferences differ noticeably between European, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian customers. We recommend fit samples in a mid size and a large size before bulk approval.

Packaging & Shipping

Three-piece sets are packed together in a single poly bag or branded box with a size and component label. Because burkinis are bulkier than conventional swimwear, carton planning matters for freight cost — we optimise fold and carton fill during packing. Air express suits smaller test orders; sea freight becomes clearly economical above roughly 300 sets. Full export documentation is provided.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pieces are included in a classic burkini set?

Three: tunic top, swim leggings, and head covering. The head covering can be attached as a hood or supplied separately depending on your specification.

Does the fabric stay opaque when wet?

Yes. We verify opacity in the wet state during sampling and add power-mesh lining at the bust and seat where extra coverage is required.

Is the garment heavy in the water?

No. We specify a lightweight base with low water retention, which is the most important fabric property for full-coverage swimwear.

What sizes do you offer?

S-4XL as standard with extended grading available. We re-draft across the range rather than scaling the base pattern.

Can I order solid colors without print?

Yes, and solid colors are the strongest sellers in this category. Contrast piping or panel detail adds design interest without print cost.

What is the MOQ and lead time?

50 sets per style per color, with bulk production in 18-25 days.

Factory-direct pricing, sampling in 7–10 days, and photo updates at every production stage.
