How to choose fabric and colour for custom swimwear
A guide to selecting from the real fabric and colour options on UOKAI designs, including two-piece matching and final order checks.
Begin with the options on the design page, not an imagined colour list. Compare the selection across both bikini pieces, remember that a screen is not a physical swatch, and verify the cart before paying.
The design options are the source of truth
Not every fabric is necessarily available for every silhouette. Open the design you want and review the fabric or colour choices shown during ordering. Those are the options you can rely on.
If you saw a fabric in another photograph or design but it is not offered on your selected product, contact the studio before paying. Do not assume every fabric can transfer to every silhouette.
A consistent set or an intentional combination
When building a bikini from two products, choose fabric on each piece independently. For a consistent set, confirm the same option appears on both pages and is saved for both cart items. For mixed colours, verify each selection belongs to the correct product.
- — Compare the option name, not only its position in a list.
- — Recheck the selection after adding each piece to cart.
- — Remember that lighting and screen settings can alter colour appearance.
- — Ask the studio before ordering when an exact shade match matters.
What a photograph cannot establish
A photograph can communicate a design direction, but it does not prove technical fabric properties. Do not assume chlorine resistance, UV protection, a particular composition, or opacity unless the product page or studio explicitly confirms it.
This keeps the decision honest: choose from available information and ask about any important property before sewing begins.
The final cart check
Review every cart item and confirm its design name, size, and saved fabric. Make sure the final price reflects your selections. Because swimwear is produced for the order and cannot be returned for a refund once production begins, this check is especially important.
Frequently asked questions
Is every fabric available for every design?
Not necessarily. The options on a product page are the available choices for that design; contact the studio before ordering about anything else.
How do I make both bikini pieces the same fabric?
Select the fabric separately on each product, then check that the same choice is saved for both items in the cart.
Will the screen colour exactly match the fabric?
Colour display can vary between screens and lighting. Ask the studio when exact shade matching is critical.
