Tankini Swim Top
The Anne Cole idea that changed modern swimwear: two-piece freedom with the coverage of a tank-style top.

Story & heritage
Anne Cole is most closely tied to the tankini: the brand’s Wikipedia extract credits founder Anne Cole with inventing the tank-style two-piece swimsuit in 1998. The idea gave shoppers a swimsuit that behaved like separates while offering more torso coverage than a bikini top.
This current One Size Fits Most black tankini keeps that invention in the center of the brand: the official product page describes one size engineered for sizes 4–14, built-in shelf-bra support, seamless construction and wear beyond the beach.
Materials & craft
The official product page lists a built-in shelf bra, a seamless construction, one-size fit for sizes 4–14, a black colorway and pairing with the matching high-waist swim bottom. Those concrete details make the top about comfort, coverage and mix-and-match utility rather than ornament.
How to choose & style
Treat it as the Anne Cole essential: pair black-on-black with a high-waist bottom for the cleanest line, or use it as the neutral anchor for printed skirts and cover-ups. The tank shape also works under an open resort shirt when moving between pool and café.
