warm water + hot dryer = shrink
A tailor can alter your bathing suit for you.
I'm pretty sure you can't shrink them. I've had the same problem, but I think your only solution would be to gain weight! haha but nobody wants that! :)
wash them again , then put them in the tumble dryer, just keep checking on them as you don´t won´t to shrink them to much, PS, Can you tell us the material they are made from, most swimsuits are made not to shrink, but you can have them taken in , go to any seamstress & they will take them in at the back
you cannot just get fat
Hot wash and then a Hot dryer.
put then in the dryer wet ...
If you really do love them, find an alteration shop and have them custom fit. It shouldn't cost but a few dollars to have a few of the seams taken in.
Put them on baggy and show us yer bits
Use the tumble dryer!!
Popping in the tumble dryer with some other wet washing and tumbling till all is really dry should do the trick. I always used to manage shrinking my husbands t-shirts in the dryer. So now I air dry them.
can't really shink bathing suits, i tried. i altered one myself though, i would have to see what the bottoms looked like to be sure, but what i did was cut the top of the butt of the suit underneath the hem, pulled it up to the desired size and sewed it onto the hem & trimmed the rest.
dry them as much as you can until you get the size you want put the dryer as hot as you can every 10-15 min and they will shrink also when you wash it wash it with hot water
