The Tie and Dye swimsuit on the beaches

Tie and Dye is a trend that is distinguished by its pretty gradient colors. It has invaded our interiors, our cupboards, in short the universe of the house.

However, Tie and Dye prints appeared earlier on t-shirts, long skirts and other shorts...



Then, it became embedded in our decor. On our sofas, our cushion covers and other plaids. It landed on our tables and on our plates, and it even ended up getting into our beds.



Finally, it has revolutionized the life of our hairdresser, who no longer swears by this overly trendy two-tone coloring… “but if my chèwie, I swear to you that I can do you the same Tie and Dye colo as Rihanna! » .



Well ok, on me it has a more "cow's tail" effect than Rihanna, but hey, let's move on...

However, it must be admitted, the tie and dye had not yet really broken into our life as beach girls.

Well, bikini addicts, I have good news for you. This summer, we are going to put an end to your terrible ordeal (and I am weighing my words!), by offering you swimsuits with tie and dye prints galore (completely corny expression from the 90s, but which for our most young readers, expresses the quantity, the orgy, the force-feeding, the surge,…) !!

Before showing you a world premiere (in all humility of course!!), the novelties of this trend, we decided to give you a little cultural minute on this print.

Well yes, we're really nice at Mademoiselle Bikini, we don't just think about your hottie look! We also want you to be able to prove that under these locks blond by the sun, hides a brain full of hyper “cultural” things and above all essential to all self-respecting fashionistas!!

Attention, beginning of the cultural minute…

The tie and dye, where does it come from??
At the very beginning, it is a technique that comes from Asia and more precisely from Japan, where it was used to dye kimonos in the 8th century. This art was called SHIBORI (when we told you, cultural minute, we weren't kidding huh!!).

This technique was taken up much later in the 1960s in the United States, by the hippie movement, seduced by its psychedelic side, and which renamed it Tie and Dye.

And concretely, what is tie and dye?

Tie and Dye is a dyeing technique that is obtained by tying parts of the fabric (tie) then dipping it in the dye (dye). The result is a print with pretty color gradations and original shapes that fade and blur.



End of the cultural minute. Well yeah, don't mess around anyway, let's get back to basics!

And on our jerseys, what does it look like?
This summer, your buttocks and chest will therefore be the new playground for these pretty prints. Here are some of our favorites of the year.


And here are the addicted bikinis, if like us you fell for these folaïe prints, and want to see more, it's happening here.

Kisses and see you soon!
