The Lycra material will feel great against your skin and your chosen Penelope Hope print will truly pop!
At Penelope Hope, we know that every woman has their own shape - as well as their own style! With our mix and match separates, you can select your bikini top size and select a different bottom size.

HOW TO ORDER
To be able to offer you, our customers, as much variety and choice as possible we are initially not going to be carrying every possible shape, style and design in stock, so instead we shall be placing bulk orders with our manufacturing partner once we know what you would like.
What does this mean?
Well, it means that once you commit to purchasing one of our swimwear products (or any of our new summer collection including leggings, yoga mats, beach mats & deckchairs) you will need to wait approximately 2-4 weeks for your order to arrive. This timescale will improve as social distancing rules relax (more bodies can work in the factory etc) and also as I learn which designs and styles are the most popular I can start to carry some as stock items.
With this in mind, sizing is going to be the biggest issue for ordering swimwear. Getting it right is going to be even more important as you wouldn’t want to have to wait a further 2-4 weeks if you need to exchange your original purchase for the size up or down!
Therefore study the sizing chart closely. Feel free to send me your measurements and I can give you my advice. We do have a selection of sizes and designs in stock and if you are based in Guernsey you can come to our studio to try them on.
Please also check out the Swimwear FAQ page here for more info. It might help answer some questions for you.
With that in mind, I am placing orders every Monday evening so if you are keen to be one of the first to own a Penelope Hope Swimsuit or Bikini then please contact me with your request to order via one of the methods below. I will then send you an invoice to pay.
Thank you .....and remember, Live life to the colour FULL!
