Cover-Ups

Quince swim cover-ups span linen kaftan and tunic styles (lightweight breathable layer for poolside and beach lounging), linen sarongs and beach wrap skirts (versatile wrap-around layer for over swimwear), button-down beach shirts (relaxed cover-shirts in linen or cotton), and cover-up dresses (slip-on full-length pieces for instant outfit-ready styling). Most styles use European linen for breathability and natural drape.

A sarong is a rectangular wrap of linen or lightweight fabric that ties around the body in multiple ways. For a wrap skirt: wrap horizontally around the waist or hips and tie or tuck at the side. For a strapless dress: wrap above the bust and tie at the back of the neck or under the arms. For a one-shoulder dress: wrap diagonally across the body. Sarongs work for shoppers who want one versatile cover-up that can be re-styled across multiple beach looks.

A kaftan is a loose floor-length or below-knee robe-style cover-up — slip on over the head, no closures, fully relaxed silhouette. A tunic is a shorter hip-to-thigh-length cover-up — slip on over the head, more casual and easier to layer over a bikini for sunbathing. A beach shirt (button-down style) is a relaxed shirt — can be worn open over swim or buttoned for more coverage; works well as a cover-up that doubles as a casual top for after-beach dinner. Choose by length preference and styling versatility.

Machine wash cool on a gentle cycle, or hand wash. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Linen wrinkles by design — the relaxed wrinkled finish is part of the look. If you want a smoother finish, steam lightly while damp. Rinse cover-ups after beach wear to remove sand and salt before storing. Linen softens with each wash and develops more character over time. Avoid bleach.
