Modest Swimwear: Let's Talk About It
Modest Swimwear
There’s something nostalgic about sitting by the pool or feeling that first splash of ocean waves—and yet, for many of us modest dressers, that moment can come with a quiet struggle: finding modest swimwear that’s comfortable, swim-friendly, and still true to our values. It’s more than just fabric—it’s about belonging, confidence and feeling free to partake in water activities and sunny beach days without compromise.
The Struggle to Find Modest Swimsuits That Are Actually Modest
We know about the endless scrolling, searching for modest swimming clothes for women. Too often, modest swimsuits or Burkinis either felt too heavy in the water, clung in all the wrong ways, or were simply not stylish. For many hijabi and modest dressing women, the choice was between comfort, style and coverage—and none of these options alone felt quite right.
Why We Designed Our Modest Swim Suits Differently
At FARES we wanted modest swimsuits that would be genuinely functional in the water while still feeling comfortable enough to relax at the beach or poolside. It was our goal to achieve this, all while looking beautiful and remaining modest. Our modest swimsuit designs use lightweight fabrics that dry quickly, offer sun protection, and move with you as you swim. We’ve incorporated small but important details that we know will be super useful when you’re in and around water - for example, buttons that connect the top and pants together so that you’re fully covered no matter how strong the waves are.
Modest Clothing Meets Swim-Friendly Design
We wanted our modest swimsuits to be a fusion of the traditional burkini and the modest wear that we are known for at FARES. We designed these swimsuits to fit comfortably and not be skin-tight. We wanted to offer a shirt and pant option as well as a longer top and leggings option, depending on your personal preference and what you find convenient while swimming. All our styles are tailored to perfection to ensure a modest cut and fit, even while swimming.
Swimwear That Celebrates Your Modesty and Style
You shouldn’t have to compromise style for modest swimwear. Our modest swimsuits are made so that you can float, dive and play under the sun while feeling like the best version of yourself. It’s swimwear that lets you embrace the water while keeping your comfort close—and your values closer.
