How to Care for Your Hunza G Swimwear: Tips to Make it Last

There’s something effortlessly chic about Hunza G swimwear. Known for its signature crinkle-stretch fabric, flattering one-size-fits-most designs, and minimal yet timeless silhouettes, Hunza G has become a cult favourite among style-conscious beach lovers.

Originally making waves in the 1980s (you must remember the iconic mini dress below worn by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman?), the brand was revived with a modern twist and continues to redefine swimwear for women of all shapes and sizes.

When you wear a Hunza G swimsuit, you’re not just wearing swimwear - you’re embracing a piece of fashion history. But like all high-quality garments, it deserves a little extra care to keep it looking and feeling as good as the first wear.

At Sand Dollar Dubai, we want your swimwear investment to last season after season. So, whether you’re lounging at Jumeirah Beach, soaking up the sun on a yacht, or relaxing poolside in the Maldives, here’s how to take care of your Hunza G and make it last for years to come.

1. Rinse Away the Day

After a salty sea swim or a dip in a chlorinated pool, always rinse your swimsuit in cool, fresh water. This simple step helps remove salt, chlorine, and sunscreen that can damage the fabric over time. Think of it like hitting the refresh button for your swimwear after each adventure.

2. Wash with Love

Hunza G’s crinkle fabric is delicate and designed to stretch comfortably to fit your shape. To preserve its magic, wash your Hunza G swimwear at 30 degrees in your washing machine with similar colours using mild detergent or gentle soap. Harsh chemicals and bleach are a big no-no.

Quick routine when on holiday: Fill a basin with cool water, add a small amount of gentle soap, swish the swimsuit around, rinse, and you’re done!

3. Don’t Soak Too Long

While a quick wash is essential, leaving your swimwear soaking for hours can weaken the elastic fibres. Wash it promptly after swimming and then lay it out to dry.

4. Dry Naturally in the Shade

Avoid wringing out your swimsuit - this can stretch out the beautiful texture. Instead, press gently with a towel to remove excess water, then lay it flat to dry in a shaded spot.

Why shade? Direct sunlight may be quick, but it can fade your swimsuit’s colour and damage the fibres. Let it dry naturally and keep it out of intense heat.

5. Avoid Rough Surfaces

The crinkle fabric looks luxe and feels soft, but it can snag easily. When lounging by the pool or beach, lay down a towel or sarong to protect your swimsuit from rough edges, pool decks, or wooden loungers.

Style tip: Avoid wearing your Hunza G with jewellery that may snag the fabric and opt for smooth bangles and earrings.

6. Rotate Your Swimwear

If you’re on a tropical escape, give your Hunza G a rest day. Rotating between different swimsuits allows the elastic fibres to recover their shape and keeps them in pristine condition.

7. Store with Care

Never leave your swimsuit damp and balled up in a beach bag. Instead, let it dry completely and store it flat or gently folded in a cool, dry place. A breathable fabric pouch works perfectly for travel.

8. Be Mindful of Sunscreen & Oils

We all love a sun-kissed glow, but oil-based sunscreens and tanning products can stain and weaken swimwear fabric. Apply lotions carefully and give them time to absorb before slipping into your swimsuit.

Why It’s Worth the Effort

Hunza G is more than just women’s swimwear: it’s a versatile staple. Many pieces transition beautifully from beach to bar with the right accessories. Slip on a flowing linen skirt or tailored shorts over your swimsuit, add oversized sunglasses and leather sandals, and you’re effortlessly vacation ready.

By following these simple care tips, you’ll keep your Hunza G pieces looking flawless, maintaining their vibrant colour, iconic crinkle texture, and perfect fit for many summers to come.
