You know that moment.
Standing in front of the mirror in yet another swimsuit that looked great online — but not on you.
The one-pieces feel frumpy. The bikinis show too much. And the cover-up never comes off.

Marella is the in-between you've been looking for. A two-piece set with a ruched drawstring skirt-bottom that smooths, shapes, and actually stays put — so you can walk to the pool and feel like yourself again.
Soft, stretchy fabric. Real support up top. And a silhouette that flatters without hiding who you are.

✓ Stop choosing between cute and covered
The ruched skirt-bottom gives you real tummy coverage in a two-piece silhouette. No frumpy one-piece. No sarong you never take off. Just flattering, on-purpose style.

✓ Support that stays all day
The V-neck top with adjustable straps holds you in place — whether you're swimming laps or lounging poolside. Built for comfort from morning to sunset.

✓ Drawstring fit you actually control
Pull the side drawstring to adjust your hemline up or down. More leg for the beach walk, more coverage for the lounge chair. Your call.

✓ Soft stretch fabric that won't go sheer
Made from a polyester-nylon blend that keeps its shape and stays opaque — even after getting wet. No surprises when you step out of the water.

What you get today
Seasonal swim inventory — once this production run sells out, restock won't arrive until next season.
Choose your color and size above, and enjoy your most confident swim season yet.
Does the skirt-bottom have a built-in bikini bottom underneath?
Yes. There's a full bikini bottom sewn in underneath the ruched skirt, so you get double coverage and can swim without worry.
Can I actually swim in this, or is it more of a lounge set?
You can absolutely swim in it. The fabric is designed for water, and the built-in bottom keeps everything secure. The skirt stays in place thanks to the drawstring.
How do I pick my size?
We recommend going one size up from your usual US size. This set is made with a snug, body-hugging fit — sizing up gives you the smooth, flattering look shown in the photos.
Is the mesh see-through?
The mesh panels on the neckline and skirt hem are decorative accents — they add a stylish detail without exposing too much. The coverage areas are fully lined.
Eligible change-of-mind returns can be requested within 30 days of receiving your order. Conditions apply and return instructions must be requested before sending an item back.
