Sheila swimwear — women’s swim shorts for land, sea and life.

OUR SIZING IS NON-STANDARD. 

To find your perfect size, please refer to our size guide. The most accurate way to achieve your best fit is to check the size against your actual body measurements.

Our swimsuits are designed to be supportive and comfortable. If your measurements put you between two different sizes, you should go up or down depending on your fit preferences.

If you like your swimwear to fit snugly and to feel more compressive, pick the smaller size. If you like a more relaxed and comfortable fit with room for body shape fluctuations, go for the larger size. 

Models:

• Cameron wears a Sheila size M and is an Australian size 12 (US size 8). Her measurements are height 179cm (5’10.5”), bust 91cm (36”), waist 74cm (29”), hips 99cm (39”), cup size B.

• Jess wears a Sheila size L and is an Australian size 14 (US size 10). Her measurements are height 178cm (5’10”), bust 97cm (38”), waist 76cm (30”), hips 107cm (42”), cup size DD.

Care

If you plan to wear your swimwear in chlorine, we recommend the Black Sand colour. Chlorine is damaging to vivid colours, no matter how excellent the colorfastness and fabric quality are — so chlorine will cause the colours to fade. If you’ll be wearing your swimwear in salt or fresh water, any colour choice is great!

• Wash before use
• Wash with similar colours
• Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water
• Dry flat in shade
• Avoid rough surfaces
• Avoid high levels of chlorine
• Do not bleach
• Do not tumble dry
