The Funkita Dry Me girls diamond back one piece is the original Funkita shape and still the most popular one in the range. Fabric panels across an open back, single bind shoulder straps, moderate leg height and modest rear coverage, with front lining — a training suit built to be worn several times a week for years.
The One to Buy If You Are Not Sure
Funkita makes several backs and swimmers have strong preferences, but the Diamond Back is the safe default. It is the most covered of the training shapes, the least fiddly to get into, and the one least likely to be rejected after the first session for feeling odd across the shoulders.
If she is new to squad, changing clubs, or you are buying without her there to try it, this is the shape to pick. The Single Strap and Strapped In are choices; the Diamond Back is the answer when you do not want to make one.
What the Back Panels Do
Rather than a thin strappy back, the Diamond Back carries fabric panels across the shoulder blades. They hold the suit steady across the bust and shoulders through a set, and they stop the straps digging in the way narrow binds sometimes do on a swimmer who is still growing.
Coverage
Moderate leg height and modest rear coverage. In practice that means no hitching after tumble turns and nothing to adjust on the wall — the difference between a suit she trains in and one she manages.

Sizing
Available in girls sizes 8, 10, 12 and 14. Funkita girls sizing is not interchangeable with ladies sizing even where measurements look close — a ladies 8 runs roughly 4cm longer in the body than a girls 14 and is cut for a more developed figure. When she is near the top of the girls range, size by torso length rather than by age.
Care
- Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every session
- Cold hand wash separately with a mild detergent — no machine, no soaking, no bleach
- Squeeze water out gently rather than wringing, which misshapes the garment
- Dry flat in the shade, never in a dryer or direct sun
- Sit on a towel rather than straight on the pool edge — rough concrete causes pilling, especially on printed fabric
