Abstract

Women's swimwear that may include a push-up nursing bikini top, a traditional push-up bikini top, and a convertible wrap. The tops are constructed the same but with different connection elements. The nursing bikini top aids breastfeeding by providing flaps that form a bra cup that can be unclipped from the fastening element, and folded down with one hand, exposing the nipple. An inner frame, connected to adjustable neck straps and chest bands, support the breast while nursing is facilitated. The inner frame also provides breast enhancement. A multi-use convertible wrap having an adjustable draw string channeled at the top of the wrap converts a bikini top into a tank swimsuit top, by connecting under the bikini top, by way of tying; as a skirt, by tying around the wearer's waist; or as a nursing cover by tying around the back of the wearer's neck.
