FAE Swim Gypsy Top - Buttercup
Product Details
Buttercup is FAE's warm, saturated yellow, and the Gypsy Top is a scoop-neck bralette with a low keyhole cutout at the center front — a structured shape rather than a soft triangle, cut in a ribbed jacquard knit with a subtle embossed floral texture. Thin adjustable straps run over the shoulder to a back strap finished with a slide-and-hook clasp.

Fit & Sizing — Measure, Don't Guess
FAE grades tops by cup, and this style runs true to FAE's own size chart. A FAE Large carries a D–E cup — a wider bust range than most unlined designer swim tops accommodate.
| Size | US | Cup | Bust | Under Bust |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 0–2 | A–B | 31" | 28" |
| Small | 2–4 | B–C | 33" | 30" |
| Large | 8–10 | D–E | 37" | 34.5" |
- Between sizes: size UP. FAE's own guidance across the range.
- The scoop and keyhole give real shape at the center bust without going as far as underwire — more structure than a soft triangle, less engineering than the Gigi.
- The back clasp adjusts independently of the shoulder straps, so band and strap length can each be tuned rather than relying on one tie to do both jobs.
- Coverage: full through the cup, with the keyhole as the only cutout — this is not a minimal or cheeky style.
- Pairs with: the Jones bottom in matching Buttercup — we hold that one too.
Sustainability Details
ECONYL® is a regenerated Italian techno-nylon made entirely from post-consumer waste — fishing nets recovered from the ocean, industrial plastic, plastic bottles. The ribbed jacquard texture and embossed floral pattern are specific to this fabric line; exact composition is confirmed against FAE's general ECONYL/REPREVE program rather than an independently sighted hangtag for this precise texture.
New with tags. Curated, not manufactured to order — nothing entered production because you bought it.
Care Instructions
- Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every wear, before salt or chlorine dries in.
- Hand wash cold with mild detergent. Never machine wash.
- Press water out gently — do not wring.
- Dry flat in shade. Never a dryer, never direct sun.
- Let sunscreen and body oil absorb fully before dressing.
- Keep the back clasp away from sunscreen and salt buildup so the slide mechanism doesn't stick.
Who It's For
A through E cups. Anyone who wants a structured scoop shape rather than a soft triangle. Anyone who wants to adjust strap and band independently. Anyone drawn to texture over a flat print.
Who It's Not For
Anyone needing full underwire support — choose the Gigi. Anyone who prefers a tie-back over a clasp closure.
