Micro Bikinis

A micro bikini is a minimal-coverage swimsuit cut significantly smaller than a standard bikini. It typically features narrow triangle or string-style tops and thong, G-string, or V-front bottoms designed to maximize skin exposure. Also called tiny bikinis or microkinis, they are popular for tanning, resorts, and photoshoots. Oh Lola micro bikinis are Brazilian-cut and made with premium stretch fabrics that hold their shape.

There is no strict difference. “Micro bikini,” “tiny bikini,” and “microkini” are used interchangeably for minimal-coverage swimwear. If a swimsuit uses significantly less fabric than a standard bikini, it belongs in this category.

Oh Lola micro bikinis come in solids, prints, and neons, with triangle tops, bandeau tops, and thong, G-string, or V-front bottoms. For fabric-focused options, see our Sheer Bikinis and Mesh Bikinis collections. Most styles feature adjustable side ties.

Micro refers to overall coverage (very small); sheer refers to the fabric (see-through or semi-transparent); scrunch refers to the back of the bottom (gathered fabric that hugs curves). Brazilian refers to the bottom cut (narrower at the rear than American or European cuts). These can be combined (for example, a sheer Brazilian scrunch micro bikini).

Yes. Every style is cut to minimize tan lines with thin straps, narrow side ties, and small coverage panels. Brazilian-cut bottoms expose more skin than standard cuts, and scrunch styles further reduce the rear tan line.

Yes. Our micro bikinis use swim-grade fabrics that hold shape and color in water. Because of the smaller surface area, stronger movement may require occasional adjustment — this is why we use adjustable ties and reinforced seams. For more active swimming, triangle tops generally perform better than bandeaus.

Use our Size Chart — Oh Lola sizing runs true-to-Brazilian, which is roughly one size smaller than standard US sizing. Micro cuts run intentionally minimal, so if you're between sizes, size up for fuller coverage or down for a more minimal fit. For exchanges, see our Return Policy.

Most resorts, private pools, adult-only beaches, and clothing-optional venues welcome them. Some public family beaches have stricter rules, so check local guidelines. They are also popular for photoshoots, bachelorette trips, and cruise destinations.

Rinse in cold water after use (especially after sunscreen, chlorine, or saltwater). Hand wash with mild detergent only. Never machine wash or tumble dry. Air dry flat, away from direct sun. Store flat or rolled.
