Burkini

The Burkini: The Modest Swimsuit

The burkini is a swimwear designed to combine modesty, comfort, and freedom of movement.

  • Design: It covers the entire body (with the exception of the face, hands, and feet) and generally consists of two to three pieces, such as a tunic, leggings, and a swimming cap.

  • Materials: Made with technical, lightweight, and quick-drying fabrics (such as lycra or polyester), it is perfectly suited for swimming and resists chlorine or salt water.

  • Purpose: It allows women to fully enjoy aquatic activities while respecting their personal clothing choices, whether they are related to religious convictions, a need for comfort, or protection against UV rays.
