Please join us on this interesting talk and learn about the origins of the burkini and where it actually came from.   Summary and Key Takeaways   Overall, this discussion delves into detail regarding modest swimwear, where burkini originally came from, and the limitations that can come with modest fashion choices. It is important we recognize these key issues so we can make efforts to change how the world views modest swimmers.   Here are some key takeaways:   ~The Christian/Jewish/Mormon groups actually were the first at popularizing modest swimwear.   ~Burkini is actually a trademark term from a company and not just a style of bathing suit.   ~Muslim teens may have felt limited fashion-wise due to the prior limited styles of modest swimwear.   ~The design and fabrication of a swimsuit is also discussed.   ~How did Splashgear come to be?   Conclusion   Thank you for joining us for this interesting presentation!
