With summer now not as distant as it once seemed in the depths of winter, as the days lighten thoughts may be turning to planning for the holidays, which often includes questions about what to wear and what not to wear on the beach or to the poolside. 

Living in a culture where clothing and swimwear seeks to reveal more of our bodies but not our values, I decided to build a Christian modest swimwear brand – one that will reveal the heart of a woman, not her body parts. 

When it comes to swimwear, the all-conquering Bikini is still the most popular choice for many consumers. However, the history of the Bikini, designed in 1946 by Louis Réard, is, in my opinion, one to be questioned, not revered.
