CHOOSING YOUR TOP STYLE & SIZE -
We have different top styles to suit everyone, making sure you feel secure and confident.
When choosing your top size we recommend going with your current measurement.
The reason for this is because your cup size may decrease, but your chest length and width will be the same.
Extra padding can always be added to help add extra fullness & shape.
Our moulded cups are firm and have a fabulous side boost integrated in. The shape is also more rounded in the bust area helping you enhance the girls. This style is great for all natural sizes that need support & lift, & enhanced sizes that prefer a more hugging fit.
Same syle as our standard moulded cups but have the great triangle shape giving you a higher enhanced bust line. This style is great for all natural sizes and smaller enhanced breasts.
Our slide triangle cups are designed to slide along the back strap, giving you more flexibility in the size and coverage of the top. The top comes with a slip to add extra padding to avoid 'high beams' or to create fullness & cleavage. This style is great for all natural & enhanced cup sizes.
Just like your perfect fitting bra, this style is more suited to themewear & WBFF. Bra style tops are great for enhancing a small bust, or giving support to a larger bust. Our bra style tops do not have underwire although they provide the same support & comfort.

CHOOSING YOUR BOTTOM STYLE -
Cayios has many different bottom styles to suit everyone and every federation, making sure you stand out from the rest.
Be sure to check the rules and regulations of the federation you are competing with to ensure your bikini complies to their rules.
-
For federations that require 30% coverage we recommend the ‘Cheeky’ cut.
-
For federations that require 50% coverage the ‘Standard’ cut is perfect.
-
The 'Standard' cut is NZIFBB approved.
BOTTOM FRONT STYLES
Great for petite competitors who find standard bottoms gape at the front.
Our most popular cut among fitness competitors. This style is suitable for ALL bikini federations.
A more narrow cut with slight scoop, designed to sit over the hips to create the illusion of elongated legs and smaller waist. Best suited to European competitors and federations like IFBB, but we are noticing this style is becoming very popular with all federations.
BOTTOM BACK STYLES
Straight cut back.
The heart back style has a butterfly shape giving more of a rounded look.
