Sequin Bikinis

What Sequin Means

A sequin is a small shiny disc — plastic or metal — sewn onto fabric in rows or scatter patterns. True sequins are sewn on with thread and move with the fabric, catching light as they shift. Two lighter cousins exist: glued sequins fixed flat, and sequin-look prints where the shine is foiled onto the fabric with no discs at all. Each listing names or shows which version a piece carries.

This collection holds 17 styles from about $17 in the sequin read. Sequin-tassel and glittering pieces lead the pool, with glitter label-mates of the same festive family sitting alongside.

The Shine Family

• Sequin: small shiny discs sewn on
• Glitter: fine sparkle particles in the finish
• Metallic: metal-look color in the fabric

Shine sorts by material. Sequin adds sewn-on discs — the heaviest, most present read. Glitter uses fine sparkle particles, lighter and softer. Metallic is a metal-look fabric finish with no added material. The store’s metallic collection carries the finish read, and the sparkle collection carries the wider shiny pool — this page is the sewn-disc end.

Sequin vs Sparkle

The store’s sparkle collection gathers the wider shiny family — glitter sets and sparkly fabrics with sequins inside it. This sequin page is the specific read: pieces whose shine comes from sewn discs or tassel details. The two pages cross-reference rather than repeat — sparkle names the family, sequin names the hardware.

For choosing: sewn sequins give the strongest presence and the most movement — the discs catch light as the wearer moves — while glitter reads softer and lighter on the body.

What This Pool Carries

The 17 styles here carry the shine read across formats: glitter-fringe wrap halter and underwire three-piece sets lead, sequin-tassel triangle sets sit in the range, and glittering fringed pieces round out the festive pool.

Choose by the finish — sewn sequin discs for the classic glam read, glitter fringe for movement — and the photos show the actual hardware.

Occasion and Care

Sequin swimwear is occasion wear — pool parties, yacht decks and resort evenings are where the sewn discs do their work. The pieces read as festive statement swim rather than everyday beachwear, which is the point of the finish.

Care: sequins are sewn or glued on, so gentle handling protects them. Wash inside out, avoid heavy agitation that can pull discs, dry flat, and expect occasional loss over long wear — the condition of the finish, not a defect of the piece.
