Kulani Kini Vintage V Full Coverage Bikini Bottom
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Full Coverage, Vintage Shape, All-Day Confidence
The Kulani Kinis Vintage V Full Coverage Bikini Bottom is built for swimmers who want security without sacrificing style. Its signature V-shaped waistline sits higher on the hips to elongate the leg line, while the full-seat construction keeps everything exactly where it belongs whether you're paddling out, poolside, or navigating a beach day.
Zig-Zag Stitching That Actually Holds
The standout construction detail on this bottom is its zig-zag stitch pattern along the waist and leg openings. Unlike standard straight seams that can gap or shift under movement, the zig-zag stitch flexes with the fabric and locks the bottom to your body. The result is a fit that stays put through surf, swim, and everything in between, with no constant readjusting.
Fabric and Construction
Made from 88% polyester and 12% elastane, the fabric stretches and recovers cleanly with each movement. The elastane content gives the bottom genuine hold without the stiffness of heavier swimwear fabrics. The bottom is fully lined and breathable, so it transitions comfortably from water to land without clinging uncomfortably as it dries.
Versatile Fit: Low or High
The Vintage V is designed to be worn low or high on the hips, giving you two distinct looks from a single bottom. Worn high, the V cut rises up the hip to maximize leg length and lean into the retro silhouette. Worn lower, it settles into a more relaxed coverage position that still delivers the full-seat protection the style is known for. Both positions are supported equally well by the zig-zag stitching.
