Crafted slowly. Made to stand apart.
The Fae Beaded Cheeky Bikini Bottom carries the same extraordinary craftsmanship as the matching Fae top. Handmade in Cartagena by women artisans, each piece takes up to 20 hours of careful hand-beading and embroidery, transforming swimwear into something far beyond ordinary.
Crafted from rare vintage textiles, the fabric itself holds character and history. The deep midnight-blue base is embroidered with vibrant orange botanical motifs and fine gold beadwork, creating a layered texture that feels rich, dimensional, and unmistakably artisanal. The bold tiger-print side ties add an unexpected contrast, giving the piece a playful yet elevated finish.
Because these fabrics are no longer produced, each Fae bikini is inherently one of a kind and cannot be replicated.
Only 20 Fae bikinis exist worldwide, making this an exceptionally rare piece that will never be recreated. Each bikini arrives with a Certificate of Originality signed by the artist, marking it as part of this limited artisanal release.
Designed with a low-rise silhouette and cheeky coverage, the bottom flatters the hips while elongating the legs. The handkerchief-style side ties add movement and softness, balancing the intricate beadwork with effortless ease.
Pair it with the Fae Beaded Bikini Top to complete a set that celebrates rare materials, patient craftsmanship, and true artisanal design.
Twenty bikinis. Twenty hours of handwork. One unforgettable piece.
Let’s get one thing straight: we’re not a fast-fashion brand and we’re not interested in pretending to be. We don’t do disposable trends or pieces that lose their spark after a season. We choose a slower, intentional path. One that honours artistry, empowers the women who craft each piece, and delivers swimwear designed to outlast the moment and elevate every getaway.
Each piece is crafted by women artisans worldwide, combining craftsmanship with confidence-inspiring designs.
We curate unique, small-batch swimwear designed to stand out. Why settle for ordinary?
We focus on quality with ultra-soft fabrics, flattering fits, and durable designs that last season after season.
I grew up on the shores of St. Lucia, where the water is warm, the days are long, and the women are strong. That island spirit shaped me. It gave me an eye for beauty, a love for bold colour, and a deep respect for women who do it all with grace.
Sandy Bottom started with a simple idea: what if I could create something that honoured the women I grew up around and the woman I was becoming?
When my daughter left for university, I decided to show her something important: that reinvention doesn’t have an age limit. That it’s never too late to build something from scratch. That betting on yourself is always worth it.
But this brand isn’t just about me. It’s about women everywhere. The artisans from Colombia to Italy, Bali to Brazil who hand make every piece with skill, heart, and tradition. The women keeping generations of craftsmanship alive while shaping futures of their own.. And the customers who choose slow fashion over fast trends, and impact over impulse.
Every Sandy Bottom piece is carefully curated and helps support real women with real stories. Women earning fair wages. Women preserving culture and craft. Women lifting each other up.
This isn’t fast fashion. This is swimwear with soul. This is resort wear with resonance. This is style with a purpose.
This is an international sisterhood.

Sanya.
