FAQs

Does Bali Make Swimsuits?

Bali is an island, not a company or a person, however, there are many companies here in Bali that do make swimsuits.

In fact, it’s probably fair to say that many of the world’s leading beachwear designers and brands have a presence here on the island.

If there’s a swim line that you love you can probably find it in the boutique stores here and most of the store’s own designs can be easily customized to ensure the most flattering cuts for your body type too.

You can even have custom swimwear made at local tailors if there’s something gorgeous that you’ve seen for inspiration.

Is Bali Swim Sustainable?

Yes. Bali Swim claims to lead the world market in swimwear manufacturing and they say their facility is the most eco-conscious manufacturing facility of its type.

They use solar power and imported recycled fabrics (including those made from plastic bottles), and they assist entrepreneurs with finding the resources they need to build their own collections this includes a dedicated team that can provide ideas for a swim line and even get involved with pattern cutting.

One very interesting thing about Bali Swim is that they can help very small brands get started with 100-piece minimum orders and sample turnaround times in just three days!

Where Is Sylk Swim Made?

Sylk Swim is an Australian swimwear brand that offers a timeless look that is meant to celebrate Australian womanhood.

They say that all of their products are ethically made and sourced here in Bali, Indonesia.

Sadly, there is no dedicated Sylk Swim store in Bali, though you can sometimes find their lines in local outlets.

If you want to support the Balinese swimwear market through Sylk Swim, it might be easiest to order it online in Australia.

What Swimwear To Wear If You Have A Belly?

If you want to rock your shape this summer, then you want to investigate swimsuits that make use of powermesh.

This fabric helps to support and create a smooth overall shape that is both slimming and trimming.

It offers a very flattering look that tends to draw eyes away from your tummy to your other features.

Alternatively, you can invest in a suit with a twist front style that has a gathering of fabric over the tummy which helps to smooth it and flatter your shape.

Can You Wear A Bikini In Bali?

Bali, like the rest of Indonesia, is quite conservative but on the beaches and within the beach resorts, it is perfectly fine to wear a bikini here in Bali.

However, it’s not very respectful to wander around town in one and you must not try and visit a temple or religious site wearing a bikini, which could lead to you being deported from Bali.

Mostly, you’re fine to wear shorts or a skirt and a T-shirt of some kind on the island and to cover up a little more using a shawl and sarong, like the locals do when you go into a temple.

Is A Bikini Legal In Indonesia?

Yes, in fact, throughout Indonesia you are fine to wear a bikini at a resort or on the beach.

However, you should be aware that in some parts of the country, women do not normally wear this kind of attire and you might attract some seriously unwanted attention if you wear it.

There was an odd case recently in which an Indonesian model was prosecuted under the country’s anti-pornography law for having a picture of her in a bikini uploaded to social media, but it was a one-off and there is no suggestion that this would ever happen to a tourist.

Where’s The Best Place To Buy Swimwear In Bali?

We’re not going to be modest about this, we think FINNS Beach Club is the best place to buy swimwear in Bali.

That’s because a.) FINNS is the best beach club in the world and you can show off your new purchase in the best environment on the island as soon as the transaction is complete and b.) because FINNS has a huge range of swimwear from various local and global brands, you won’t find a better selection to choose from in Bali.

Also, a visit to Bali simply isn’t complete without a visit to FINNS, 1 in 8 visitors already make their way to FINNS but soon everyone will because you can’t have more fun than you can have at FINNS.
