Poliana means “meadow” in Bulgarian, which perfectly describes the lace in this bathing suit. Poliana is a sexy, yet demure bathing suit that is meant to suit all body types and personalities. It can be adjusted in infinite ways. You can make the bottoms cheeky or with fuller coverage. And you can mix and match top and bottom sizes to fit your specific body type. It can also be worn halter style with an open back, or with crossed straps at the back.
