Triangl Bikini Review: Winnie, Milly and Black Neon
10:05:00 PM
Winnie in Molly Rosewolf |
I'm sure most of you have heard of/seen triangl bikinis before - bronze toned goddesses on Instagram wearing incredible bright bikinis. Like many others I was drawn to these bikinis and so started the battle of deciding on the style that I wanted. It took me a ridiculous amount of time to decide (ask my friends how annoying this was for them..) but I finally decided to get Winnie in Molly rosewolf.
I'm not going to lie but receiving these was a bit of a hassle - with no fault of traingl but from the postage company who held my package in the state for a strangely long time before delivering them to the wrong address. Luckily I contacted triangl who were so wonderful about the whole situation and told me to let them know details from the shipping company and that they would follow them up. Luckily, after a few days my bikinis were delivered to my door.
The bikinis themselves were incredible quality and were packaged in the nicest neoprene beach bag. Unfortunately, although being limited in the bust region I had underestimated my breast size and the XS top that I ordered was far too small. Luckily though I was able to organise an exchange and the traingl team actually sent my new bikini back as soon as I showed them my shipping receipt so that I didn't have to wait, which I considered to be amazing!
When exchanging I actually decided to choose a different style and went with the Milly in Arizona Sunset, a gorgeous bra style bikini in the brightest orange.
I ended up ordering these in a size small for both the top and the bottoms and they fit perfectly! Once again they are made from high quality neoprene, however they came in a solid and slightly sexy black box to ensure the cups would not be squashed - rather than a beach bag. These bikinis are the perfect style for my body shape and enhance all of the right areas whilst making me look a lot more tanned than I actually am.
As I was so impressed with the fit of these bikinis I decided to order a bra in the same style. Unfortunately after I ordered the bra triangl informed me that they were actually out of the style I had ordered and to make up for it offered me either a full refund or two bikinis of my choice at no extra cost! Let's just stop here and give triangl a round of applause for THE best customer service ever.
Anyway, I decided to get another set of Milly bikinis, this time in Santa Rosa Splash and a pair of the black neons in pink rush. I ordered both of these with tops and bottoms both in size small.
For some reason triangl actually posted these bikinis with FedEx rather than toll on a Friday and they arrived at my door on the Monday! Potentially the fastest international postage ever.
I'm not going to go into details about the Santa Rosa splash bikinis as they fit as amazingly as the Arizona sunset ones. What I will say through is that the colour is amazing - photos do it no justice.
Black Neon - Pink Rush |
I will however go into the black neon pink rush bikinis. I almost like these more than the milly style, potentially because they are the most incredible shade of pink. Like the other pairs I had tried these bikinis are of the highest quality. They come in a pink mesh neoprene beach bag that matches the top to keep them safe. I was a little worried that the top of these would be too big after once again doubting my bust size, however the small in these fit me perfectly. The bottoms are made from a slightly thinner neoprene than the milly style and are made a little smaller (see photo below), however stretch to fit me perfectly.
Underneath, Black Neon - Top, Milly |
Overall I would give my experience with triangl 5 stars. They have the best customer service I have experienced online and their bikinis are of a very high quality. If cost is something holding you back I will definitely say that I think these are completely worth it. I will mention that the bikinis must be stored flat and washed carefully as neoprene has a tendency to crease, although you are given a card with these instructions with every pair of bikinis. Unfortunately (but not really) triangl have just released the poppy style which are absolutely beautiful and so I wish I could have another pair, however I will wait patiently until I can justify another pair to myself one day.
I hope this post helped you if you were thinking about getting some triangl bikinis, feel free to ask any questions in the comments below. Let me know if you have had any experiences with triangl or if there are any other styles you would recommend!

Heeey! i would love to know what bra size you are?! I am really considerating in buying a milly style bikini but im not sure if i have to go for an S or XS. In bra im 34A /32B and for bottoms im 2 in jeans, thank you sooo mucch, really loved your review
ReplyDeleteI am a size 32-34/C in bras and an Australian 8 in bottoms usually. My sister is a size 32B and the small fits her. I would recommend the style if you have a smaller bust as it gives you a little extra! The XS might fit you better back wise (as the small back is borderline too big for me) and might fit better in the cup too :) hope this helps a little!
DeleteThis was so useful - I was apprehensive about ordering the black neon because the back isn't adjustable but I think I'll take the plunge - the pink does look really beautiful. I think I'd get the orange eeek tough decision. You made it a lot easier given we're practically the same size! x
ReplyDeleteThank you! They are lovely bikinis, the Orange is really nice too! The back would easily be taken in if need be too if it was a little big :)
DeleteThank you so much for this review - especially on the Black Neon as there aren't too many reviews on it yet!
ReplyDeleteI have been back and forwards for weeks now trying to decide what size top I should get in the Orange Burst Black Neon.
I was wondering if you would be generous enough to take the time to measure the 3 sides of the triangle on your size small top of the pink one? so the Bottom, and the 2 sides in cm. I want to be able to draw it out on paper so I can see. My bra size fluctuates between brands and I just don't know if I would be a Medium or Small and I'm a little pressed for time to choose the wrong size and return it before my trip south. I appreciate this so much if you are able to!!
Hello! The bottom of my top is around 16.5-17cm and each of the sides are about 15.5cm :) Ihope that helps you a little bit and that yours arrive quickly! Feel free to ask any more questions if you have any!
DeleteThank you so much for taking the time to do that!! I really appreciate it :)
DeleteI'm a size 0-2 in jeans, so what size bottoms should I get?
ReplyDeleteI would say a size XS as I'm a size 4 and the small fits me pretty well! The ladies on the online chat are great to talk to though if you want to ask the experts :)
DeleteHello! I am thinking of ordering a triangl bathing suit to Canada but im unsure of bottom sizing as the triangl size guide isnt much help! im trying to decide between size xsmall and small, im 34 inch hips and 26 inch waist, just wondering what your measurements were? as the size 0-2 and 3-4 dont really help me sadly :(
ReplyDeleteHello! Sorry for the delayed reply. My hips are 35 inches and my waist is 25 inches. If you have a butt I would probably recommend the small :)
DeleteDid you end up ordering to Canada? Did you get additional charges when the package arrived?
DeleteI am looking to order to Canada too. I heard the customs charges can be around $45. did you end up ordering Nicole? If so, what did it acctually cost? I am looking to ship to Ontario..
DeleteIn the US I got charged $73 from FexEx for customs. I had no idea that I would be getting these charges so that was a shock. It was that much for 3 bikinis so the total of my purchase was about $260. They base customs cost on the price of the bikinis.

DeleteThat sucks about the charges! I guess coming from Australia is why I didn't get any. I hope they were worth it!
DeleteHi Hun how do u just order a bra? As I can see I could only order a set?
ReplyDeleteHey, unfortunately they don't sell their underwear anymore but fingers crossed they bring them back!
DeleteI am considering getting the Milly and the Black Neon bikini. I am a size 32-34B, 00 in American Eagle, and 16 in Abercrombie. I don't know what size I should get. I heard some styles run smaller and others run larger.
ReplyDeleteHey, your top sizing sounds pretty similar to my friend who fits into the size small, however the back is slightly big on her. If you are a large B cup I would probably recommend the small to avoid over exposure, but if you're a smaller B cup then the size small cups on the Milly may gape on you a little. For the black neon i think the biggest issue for you would be the band size as the triangles on the small fit my friend fine also. I would have a look at the exact measurements on their website and compare your back measurement to that :)
DeleteAs far as bottoms go I'm from australia and am not familiar with American eagle or Abercrombie sizing (the website sizing also doesn't help me much). I'm a small and my hips are 35 in and my waist is 25 in, if measuring yourself helps a little. I would definitely recommend chatting to the lovely ladies online about bottom sizing! I will say though that my milly bottoms are a fair bit bigger than the black neon ones!
Sorry I couldn't be more help!

ReplyDeletei want a poppy bikini and my bra size is 75B wich size do i need to order? and my jeans are size 36-38. wich sizes do i need to order
ReplyDeletecheck out my review on the 'Lily' Triangl Bikini
ReplyDeletehttp://simplystyledbyemma.blogspot.co.uk/
I am worried that I might feel exposed with the cold water... I am unsure if the milly style has padding or something so I don't feel embarrassed. How is that on the style of suit?
ReplyDeleteThe neoprene in the Milly is quite thick and structured so if the water is cold (as it always is) it shouldn't reveal anything! I haven't had any issues with it :)
DeleteHi, this was so helpful thank you! I am considering the milly and the winnie bikini.
ReplyDeleteI am a small 32A on top and I wear a 26 inch waist jean. I am generally a size 6-8 in Uk sizes. What size would you recommend for both bikinis?
Thank you
I'm really interested in the poppy, but have no idea what I size I should order. I'm a 34C. Any idea what size I should order?
ReplyDeleteIf you are a small C cup I would recommend the small, however if you are a larger C cup then maybe try a medium as there may not be enough coverage on the small! Although that being said you would probably need to take the back in on the medium being a size 34 :)
DeleteNice Article & Post Dear ...... I Like this Post....
ReplyDeleteThis was really helpfull, thank you! My bra size is 32A, what size should i order?
ReplyDeleteI would recommend a size XS, however the girls on the site are really helpful!
DeleteOr maybe even XXS If you're a small A cup.
DeleteI used to like Triangl but now I realize they produce same style swimwears every year, its so boring. I dont want to wear same type bikinis every summer. I found new brand, name is Moeva London and it has gorgeous and different style they used real gold plated accessories in products! you should definetly check this brand page
ReplyDeleteI have a 32A too... Im afraid that even the XXS will not fit :(
ReplyDeleteThe way that the cups are moulded makes them fit nicely but I would definitely recommend talking to the girls on the chat!
DeleteHi Ella
ReplyDeleteYour review on the black neon swimsuit was so helpful. Thank you for that. I have just a couple questions that I didn’t see answers to above. I have spent several days watching and reading reviews and spoken to their sales reps twice and have received different answers on sizing. I am wondering based on your knowledge you might be able to clear this up for me!
1. For the bottoms I am 30 inch hips 25 inch waist size 0-1 US jeans. Does an XS sound like it makes sense?
2. For the top, do you find there is any gaping with movement? Or does it stay on nicely? I am used to halter tie tops and they don’t seem to gape. I am a 34 B. They recommended a size S. Could I trouble you to provide the measurement of the strap that goes along the under bust? I understand that part is not adjustable.
Thank you So much for your great review and your help. I hope to do this right the first time!
Hi! Your review is so helpful. The sizing is stumping me even after I live chatted with them. I usually am a 36B bra and I'm nervous about the top not fitting. I wanted to ask about their exchanges, did you have to pay extra shipping to send it back or did they cover the cost?
ReplyDeleteI reckon you would probably fit into a size small. The back has a fair bit of space and the cups are moulded nicely so should fit you. I had to pay to send it back but the post for the new pair was free and they sent them to me as soon as I sent the receipt through to prove I had posted the old ones back!
DeleteI ended up ordering a small top and extra small bottoms so fingers crossed! Thank you for repsonding to quickly!
DeleteNicole, I am the same size as you. Have you received your Small top and did it fit?
DeleteYes how did the top fit?? I am a 36A sometimes 36B (small bust wide back) how did you find the small? I'm stuck between small and medium
Deletedo you know what size i should possible get as a us size 10 in jeans ? i really want one but dont want to go through the trouble of shipping if it doesnt fit.
ReplyDeleteIm not completely familiar with US sizes sorry, however he Triangl website recommends an XL for US size 10. I will say though that I found my bottoms to be very snug to begin with but did stretch out after I wore them!
Deletethank you :)
DeleteHi! i found your review incredible helpful but i was curious to know if the top of the Milly ever slipped of fell off. I have heard mixed review and i really want to make sure before i spend the money!
ReplyDeleteIt never has on me! That being said though if you were to dive head first into an incoming wave it could pull forward, but I don't think it would slip off :)
Deletedo the bottoms cover most of someones butt, not a lot, or all of it?
ReplyDeleteI would say they are pretty covering. They are definitely not skimpily cut but maybe don't cover everything.
DeleteHey Ella, the three Triangl bikini's you've selected are so pretty! I love the colours! I have the Milly in Santa Rosa Splash which I've done a quick review of here: http://www.dominiquekane.com/all-the-angles-on-triangl-swimwear-review/. I really like the design but I'm not a big fan of the bottoms (they cut into my hips). I'm also not sure I like neoprene for bikini bottoms, mine seem to get hot really quickly since they don't breathe and take just forever to dry out after a swim. Do you find this with yours?
ReplyDeletexx
Hi, I am confident in my choice of bottom but not quit the top. I am a 34/36 A would the XS be too small on my back or do you think it would be just right
ReplyDelete?
I think that the XS would probably be fine on your back but I would check with the triangl online chat :)
DeleteHi! Did you receive your suit yet? I am a 36 A sometimes 36B and have no idea what size to order. I have a small bust but a wide back haha any suggestions?
DeleteAre the straps for the orange and blue bikini's removable? Because I see that you have them strapless, and on the website they have them similar to bra straps. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteNo they aren't unfortunately. I just have them tucked in in some pictures and then you can't see them because they're black in others!
DeleteHow long did it take to organize an exchange? I ordered my top a size too small as well.
ReplyDeleteNot long! I sent mine back the day after I contacted them about it and then had my new size a week later :)
DeleteHi! so i'm thinking of getting a Chloe, and my cup size is a 32A-B do you think i should stick to XS? :)
ReplyDeleteHey Ella! I'm a cup 32A - B ish and i'm thinking of getting a Chloe.
ReplyDeleteDo you think I should get an XS?
I would say an Xs would probably be good for you size wise, however I'm not sure what coverage is like in the Chloe sorry!
Deletehi ella!! would you say these bikinis run a little smaller then normal?
ReplyDeleteHi Carly! I would say that the cup size/top size does run a little smaller but the band size is quite variable. The bottoms do feel smaller also as they are neoprene and are quite resistant when stretched!
DeleteHi Ella! I'm from the US, and I'm trying to get the Milly- Santa Rosa Splash, but I'm alittle curious on the sizing for the bottoms, I can wear size 0's in pants and they fit perfectly, but size 2 is alittle loose. I know the style is hipster so I'm curious on how that plays out?
ReplyDeleteI find that the bottoms are quite snug around the hips as they are worn so low and that the bottom part is quite small comparatively on some styles. I'm between a size 2 and 4 and the small fits me perfectly. I would probably say an XS would fit you if you have hips, otherwise I'm not sure if they make them any smaller than that sorry!
DeleteHi Ella! I'm a size 38C and was thinking of the large in the Milly style... What size would you recommend? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi, I wanted to order the milly style but im skeptical about the bottoms as I heard that they run small. Im a 0 in US, what size would you recommend? Also, how does the top fit?
ReplyDeleteHi thank you so much for this!! Super helpful :)
ReplyDeleteQuick question - do the bottoms loosen a bit after a few wears? I ordered the XS and its a tad snug around the hips (nothing crazy). Wanted to double check whether or not they loosen before I try to exchange for a S
Hey, Did you change to an S after all?
Deletemay I know whats your hip measurement? and the measurement for the bottom you have ? Am thinking to get an XS or S.
Hey thanks for the review it was so helpful! I actually spoken to one of the ppl on triangl through live chat, I'm a size 32d and they recommend I go for a size Large or small plus (for large bust and small under bust.) I feel like that would be to big for me, I even told them I'm a small D. But they told me that a medium might not have the coverage for me. Do you think I should go with my gut and order a medium or follow their suggestion?
ReplyDeleteActually I am a size 32C/D and M is even to small for me. Did you go for the small+ ? If yes how does it fit? Because I am thinking about ordering another pair and I'm again not sure which size I should go for.
DeleteHi, I'm really looking forward to buy the Triangl Poppy, but i don't know what size should I go for. I am usually 34b and 28-29 on my jeans (I usually buy jeans @ Forever21)
ReplyDeleteHey! I already own a Chloe in M/M which fits well. I want the Ollie style but heard it runs large in the band. If I was to go for a S top do you think it would be too small in the cups? for reference I am a 34C/32D. Also did you find the Ollie bottoms fit similarly to the other styles? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi I'm 14 and really looking forward to ordering a Poppy but I don't know what size top to buy xxs or xs, Thanks <3
ReplyDeleteHey, the poppy are very pretty! What size are you usually? the girls on the triangl site are very helpful with sizing :)
DeleteHey, I'm thinking of getting a triangl bikini in Poppy bu I'm a 28E/30DD and soI was wondering if you could suggest which size you think would work- I don't know whether to get a XS, S+ or S++. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteim a 32b in pink, what size do you think i should get?
ReplyDeleteHey i want to buy the poppy style: i have a 32c Which size do i have to take a small or a small plus?
ReplyDeleteI am a small, however the back isn't snug on me and the XS back may fit better. The only issue is that if you are a C cup the XS cups may be too small for you.
DeleteHi! Wat size is your Winnie bikini and what size are you ? I wanted to get one but I don't know wich size
ReplyDeleteThe winnie bikini I got was an XS and was too small so I would probably be a size small instead. I am an au size 8.
Deleteheey, i was wondering how much padding is on the bathing suit tops?
ReplyDeleteHello! The cups are moulded and padded enough so that they aren't revealing, however they don't have extra padding to push you up!
DeleteHi Ella! I read your post long time ago and really loved it so today I was googling for a while to find it again :) Basically, I just want to ask about the exchange process as today I sent mine new Brigitte top back for an exchange. You say that they sent it straigh after you had showed them your shipping receipt right?. Did you just email them and ask whether that was possible? Did you email it to returns@triangl.com ?? I really need to make the new delivery quicker as I am afraid the new top will miss me coz I am going for a holiday soon :-/ Any thougts or suggestions pleease? :) x
ReplyDeleteHey Kristina! I emailed them at that email address asking when the new ones would be sent and just took a photo of the shipping receipt! They then sent it straight back to me. They were very helpful. I hope you get your new ones on time!
DeleteThanks a lot! :) Now fingers crossed for me lol
DeleteBEWARE! This company has ZERO customer service... no phone numbers, chat people give you the run around, they say they are sending an email but they don't, then if you finally get to the end of this run around and time wasting they ask you to ship to Hong Kong pay the shipping and then they subtract the original shipping from your purchase! are you kidding me?? you end up owing them money and having no suit at all! I can't stand poor customer service this goes beyond poor into the SCAM category! BEWARE!
ReplyDeleteI really want to get the Poppy Bikini but I have heard you can pay so much in import fees/shipping etc so I am actually considering to get it from Ebay. Since ebay probably doesnt issue returns, I am trying to make the best decision possible for my size. I have seen a few NEW ones like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/252060681253?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

I dont have much of a butt or hips (I guess little butt ) but i dont want it to be super tight and uncomfortable.
thank you!
hi ella i am a 34 A but the site recommended me a small but i think it will be too big on the bust and i am afraid the extra small will be too tight on the back since a have a wide back. (in the milly)
ReplyDeleteDo you wear Victoria's Secret bras ever? I can wear a 32C from them perfectly, and a 32B, so you think the Small is appropriate choice? Do you think you could measure the band around the ribcage for your Ollie? Also, you said you measure around 35 for hips. Should someone who measures about 36-37 get a Medium in the bottoms?
ReplyDeleteHi! I need some help. My bust measurements are around 29 inches and my hips are around 31 inches. What size would you recommend?
ReplyDelete
