The cut, on a body

Coverage: barely

Our smallest bikinis, tops and bottoms together. Tiny triangles, skinny straps, thong backs, strings you place yourself. Less fabric, not see-through fabric. Very little between you and the sun, and every piece still sewn in Los Angeles in a small run.

Less bikini. More you.

Tiny does not mean see-through

Minimal coverage is about how small the bikini is, not whether you can see through it. The fabric is opaque. If you want a specific cut, go to tie-side bikini bottoms for adjustable hips, high-cut bikini bottoms for the leg line, or triangle bikini tops up top.

Small bikini. Big day.

Designed and sewn in Los Angeles in small runs. Tiny bikinis, made with actual people in mind.

Questions before you get undressed

Which bikini has the least coverage?

This collection gathers the smallest current shapes, but the exact answer depends on whether you mean top coverage, back coverage, or the leg opening. Compare the product photos and fit facts.

How should I size a minimal-coverage bikini?

Choose your usual size unless the individual product says otherwise. A smaller size changes both fit and coverage, so use the size guide and product-specific notes.

Is minimal coverage the same as a micro bikini?

Not necessarily. California High uses minimal coverage to describe smaller cuts and more exposed skin. It does not mean sheer, transparent, or costume swimwear.
