I purchased what I thought was a wonderful flattering bright pair of billabong bathers. Trusting them I didn't pre wash them before going on holidays. The dye never stopped running. I ended up constantly with red skin. any clothing contacting them ended up red. Couldn't hide the fact from my friends. Had to stop wearing them. I was on a cruise so had no options. Spoiled my holiday and swimming had to cease.
