SO many of you requested this item over the last two years so I decided to make it happen! I took your favorite sports bra design and transformed it into a swim crop that you will absolutely love to wear! I really love how the beautiful braided detail turned out. It gives the support you can depend on (2nd most supportive swim crop) while still being perfectly comfortable. The back straps were strategically designed to rest just below your scapulae. The flattering V-Neckline is designed to create the illusion of a longer neck.
If you prefer a bit more coverage, you will love pairing your Braided Crop Top with one of our high-waisted bottoms! It provides the coverage of a one piece with the convenience of a two piece. If you are inclined to show off a bit more skin, try out our a low rise bikini bottoms! The Braided Crop Top is one of my favorites because it gives me the support of my favorite sports bra and it just looks incredible on every body type!

"Kiava suits are so flattering even on this almost 50 year old post-menopausal body. I paired this top in red with the high rise bottoms in black and white stripe and it’s so cute. I am a 34DDD and the large was the right fit. Exchanging the be medium I originally ordered for the large was super easy."
