African Print High Waist Bikini, Rekiana Solar Recycled UPF50+ Performance Swimwear

This African print high waist bikini by ASAKE-OGE is a recycled performance swimwear set featuring a bold solar mandala Ankara inspired print on high density recycled fabric, with UPF50+ protection, moderate compression, removable padding, and a flattering high waist silhouette, available in sizes XS to 3XL at $107.

About the Rekiana Solar Bikini

The Rekiana Solar is an explosive celebration of optical vitality, anchored by a vibrant vermilion red base and textured with a fine, stippled obsidian gradient. Radial mandalas in solar gold and cream, with deep amethyst centers, repeat across the fabric to create a mesmerizing optical effect that mirrors the pulsating energy of a high intensity workout. The print draws directly from the visual language of West African Ankara wax print textiles, reimagined as performance swimwear with cultural resonance built into every seam.

Engineered with sustainability and support in mind, this set is crafted from high density recycled fibers: 88% recycled polyester and 12% elastane in the EU construction, or 81% REPREVE recycled polyester and 19% LYCRA XTRALIFE in the MX construction. The double layered, non reversible design uses precision zig zag stitching for maximum opacity and a fit that holds its shape through every dive. Internal openings allow for removable padding, included, so you can tailor your silhouette and lift. A tear away care label keeps the feel against your skin smooth and irritation free.

How to Style This African Print Bikini

For the athlete: the high waist silhouette gives secure, anatomical support for open water swims or beach side training, while the zig zag stitching and recycled fabric hold everything in place through dynamic movement.

For the traveler: the high waist bottoms offer sophisticated coverage for local excursions, and the top doubles as a bold cropped performance separate when layered under a semi sheer linen tunic. Quick dry, UPF50+ materials make it a space saving essential from a morning swim to a cliffside lunch.

For the urbanist: pair the high waist bottoms with a structured silk wrap or an oversized black poplin shirt for a pool side look that bridges technical swimwear and street luxe. Complete the moment with the ASAKE-OGE African print bag collection, an ideal cross-sell pairing for a resort ready ensemble.

Rekiana Solar | Recycled High-Waist Bikini Size Guide

Fit Notes:

• The High-Waist Foundation: This bikini set is engineered to sit at the natural waistline. The high-waist construction provides an anatomical anchor, ensuring the bottoms remain secure during activity while offering a smoothed, supportive silhouette.

• Compression & Recovery: With up to 19% LYCRA XTRALIFE (in MX variants), the fabric provides a higher level of muscular compression than standard swimwear. It is designed to retain its snap and shape even after prolonged exposure to salt water and sunlight.

• Supportive Double-Layering: Because this set is double-layered and non-reversible, it offers double the structural integrity. This ensures that the deep obsidian base remains completely opaque and provides a more rigid, supportive feel than single-layer alternatives.

• Customization Tip: For women with a larger bust relative to their waist, the removable padding provides a customizable bridge. Keep the padding in for added lift and structure, or remove it for a more natural, flexible fit.
