I'm new to this. Where do I start? 

If you are brand new to competition bikini shopping, it can be hard to know where to start. If you don't have any bikini style in mind, we firstly suggest getting some inspiration from our Instagram account, @glamfitbikinis. As well as talking to your coach to discuss what kind of style will work best for you and your chosen federation.
It is also very important to look at the style and size guides before placing an order.

 

How Do I Buy a Bikini?

We have a few different options for purchasing a bikini on our site.
CUSTOM BIKINIS and COUTURE DESIGNS, Build your own dream bikini from scratch in any colour, size, style and embellishment design using the interactive easy to use order form. Please note that since these are all custom made, we require a 4-8 week turnaround for these for domestic orders and 6-8 weeks for international. 

Our Ready To Ship Bikinis are the best option if you need a bikini right away. They are all pre-made and ready to be sent next business day. Sorry but we do not alter these. 
It is expected that you read the size guide and galleries before purchasing ANY of our bikinis! 

 

How long before my competition should I order my bikini? 

You can order as far in advance as you like! The more time the better, it is always good to be prepared. We like 8 weeks for Australian customers and 10 weeks for overseas customers. 

For Couture designs we suggest getting in 16-20 weeks out so if you’re competing in FMG or WBFF its best to get your sketch designed before 12 weeks out.

For our custom bikinis for ICN/IFBB etc 8-10 weeks out is a good range. If you’re relatively close to stage weight you can order further out but if you have a fair bit to lose you may want to wait till you’re about 8 weeks out to get the correct size.

If you are wanting a custom design please place your order well in advance. These bikinis are very time consuming as each crystal is hand sewn or glued onto the bikini, so please avoid leaving your order to the last minute.

During peak season if you order a bikini within 4 weeks of your competition date, you WILL be contacted to pay a Rush Fee. 

 

I need a bikini NOW! Help!

If you are needing a bikini in less than 4 weeks, you can purchase one of our ready-made bikini from our Ready To Ship section. Or you can place a custom order, additional charges will be applied to jump the queue and have your bikini prioritised.

 

Do you make figure suits?

We sure do :) Just like our standard bikinis, we can custom make ANY design in a figure suit. If you'd like a customised design and sketch of your suit before it goes into production you can submit your ideas here.

Or you can order straight through our website from our Figure Suit designs. Our Figure suits come with a criss-cross back and a deep V-Cut bottom. The bottoms are not scrunch bum. We can provide a scrunch bottom upon request.

 

Do you use Swarovski crystals?

We use both standard, Preciosa and Swarovski crystals. You can select from either Preciosa or standard crystals on your order form. Swarovski is an extremely high quality stone and is ideal for the ultimate bling and can be ordered in by request. Preciosa offer an equivalent level of sparkle and brilliance to Swarovski Crystals. With similar shine and depth but at a more affordable price point!

Just because our standard crystals are not Swarovski does not mean they are not beautiful. Most of our bikinis use standard crystals, which are made from high quality glass and resin. They shine beautifully and are more budget friendly. 

 

 

I am competing in FMG/WBFF. How do I order a Couture Bikini?

A couture bikini is a unique, one of a kind bikini. Since it is so unique, and the design possibilities are endless, you cannot use the ‘Custom Bikini’ function to purchase a Couture bikini. You will need to work alongside our design team to discuss your concept and submit a design. You can submit a couture bikini enquiry here.

 

How Much is a Couture Design?

Couture designs start from around AU$1500.00 plus postage and range typically from AU$1800.00-$2000.00, depending on how elaborate it is. If this is out of your budget, your best option is one of our beautiful GFB Designs.

 

When should I order my Couture Bikini?

We know you girls are super excited and want to be organised. We recommend contacting us in advance (16-20 weeks out from your show) to discuss your design. As places are strictly limited, please be aware a deposit will be required to secure your spot. Once your design has been accepted and before a sketch of your design is provided.

The remaining balance is due before work starts on your bikini. As we require no less than 8 weeks to complete designs, full payment is due no later than 12 weeks out.  A link to make payment via our website will be emailed to you for ease of payment.

 

The Quick Buy bikini I want it not in my size. What do I do?

The bikinis on our Ready To Ship page are pre-made and ready to go. If you found one you love but you want to change the colour, cut or style, the best option is to CUSTOM ORDER your bikini using the Ready To Ship bikini product details. We do not alter Ready To Ship bikinis. These are sold as-is.
