This is the original hooded bikini top ~ Convertible and adjustable tie closure with removable hood Tie in many different ways..Remove the hood when you don't want it, and put in back on when you do - you can also use the hood to shield your shoulders from the sun if you feel you've had a little bit too much <3
Shown with the braided swimsuit shorts and also with our pixie skirt bottoms, and in the last photo, it is shown with the lace stripe fringe skirt as a cover-up. The hood can be completely removed from the swimsuit, and added onto any other halter top that ties in the back center of the neck. The tie strings have small leaf shapes sewn onto the ends for a special finish. It has slits in the sides of the top so that you can add in cups/pads for enhancement or more support (should fit any cups you currently have in your old swimsuit/bra)
✥ We can make these simply by cup size, but we love to customize the band that goes around your under-bust to get the perfect fit. If you have a tape measure, please add your under-bust measurement in the personalization box. See tabs for directions.
❖ We hand make these with love in Colorado, to your color and size, and height. Please see tabs below for size guide to get the best fit, and to see our most current turn around time. <3

❖ How to Get the Best Fit:
*There are two ways to order. If you have a measuring tape, follow the fit guide below to get a perfect fit. If you don't have a tape measure, and want to go by your normal sizing, order the cup size you normally wear for your bra and then also just let us know what size shirt you normally wear so we can estimate the size of your under-bust band that goes around your rib cage.
*If you have a measuring tape, please give us your under-bust measurement in the personalization box so we can customize the fit.
❖ How To Measure:
Make sure to stand up straight, and get a measurement while you're at rest, not breathing in or out, but just somewhere comfortably in the middle.
Cup size: use USA cup size that you normally wear for your bra. If you are international, please message us for a conversion chart.
❖ Fit Guide:
Small - A Cup
Medium - B Cup
Large - C Cup
We cannot do D cup or DD cup sizing for this swimsuit top yet, However: This Top Runs Big - we recommend that if you are between cup sizes that you go with the smaller size, as our sizing runs the tiniest bit big for more coverage. If you want to show more skin than shown in the photos, going down to a smaller cup size will still fit you and will have more of a traditional bikini cut.
**All pieces are made custom for you by us Elven Forest ladies after you order, so please make sure to measure yourself to get an accurate size or send us your actual measurements for a unique fit. You can also write us before buying for help determining your size :)
Elven Forest Creations offers conscious and uniquely crafted apparel and your purchases from us support a wonderful team of women. We put a lot of love into these clothes and because all of our designs are made by hand and made to order, orders take some time to process.
Our orders are handmade with love when you order and our sewing time varies based on the seasons. Please allow an average of 3-4 weeks to complete before shipping (please allow up to 6-8 weeks during high volume times).
If you need something sooner than that, or by a certain date, please contact us before buying, as we can usually accommodate rush orders or take care to deliver by a certain time.
• Sustainable Packaging •
We love keeping our business local, ethical, and sustainable. We use eco-friendly packaging, which is either biodegradable or recycled/recyclable. We send our clothing out in mailer bags made from recycled materials and also is 100% biodegradable. This means that once it is thrown away, it will decompose completely, leaving no trace behind. The tissue paper we use is recycled from other paper, as well as banana and palm leaves and can be recycled again. And the yarn used to wrap your creations is pretty enough to look beautiful braided into hair or saved for later and used to wrap a present for a friend. <3
• Domestic Orders •
Custom Shop: Once finished, all orders in the United States are shipped Priority Mail Or First class mail, depending on weight (both are 2 to 5 day delivery depending on your location). Orders within the USA come with tracking numbers, which we will email to you when we ship your order.
Premade shop: If you have purchased a premade and ready to ship item (noted in the title of your item), it will go out in the mail the following Tuesday. If you need it sent sooner than that or want to upgrade to faster, express, or overnight shipping, please send us a message before buying to see what's possible.
• International Orders •
All packages outside of the United States are shipped First Class International Mail (time varies by which country that you are in but usually takes between 1-2 weeks). It comes with a very basic tracking number that your country may use, depending on your country and how much their mail synchs with US mail. If you want a true tracking number on an international order, please discuss this with us in advance so we can set up a custom listing for you. We can not take responsibility for lost or stolen packages. If you want to upgrade, let us know and we can add insurance to your package.
We love our international customers! Please check with your Customs office and/or Postal Service if you are concerned about possible tariffs. If required by your country, you are responsible for paying their customs charges, if any. We wish this were different and are very grateful for our international supporters.
Our orders are custom made, and are hand made for you after you order, to your size, color choice, (and measurements, if you give them to us). So we do not do normal returns and exchanges. However, we do tailor to perfection! If you give us your measurements upon ordering we guarantee perfect fit, and if anything is not perfect, please let us know within 5 days of receiving your package. We will tailor it to perfection for you free of any charge.
Alternately, if you have made a mistake in your measurements that you gave us upon ordering, or gave us an incorrect size without specific measurements, that is A-ok. We will tailor it for you at minimal cost, based on how long it takes to sew.
If you simply feel the design is not for you, let us know, we take partial returns with a 30% restocking fee on a case by case basis. As a small business, it is difficult for us to absorb the cost of a garment made exactly to one persons specifications.
Because our clothing is made custom, and our size charts are very accurate, it is very rare to have an issue, but if there is, rest assured, we will do everything in our power to make it perfect for you, as your experience with us is our top priority.
