Finding swimwear that is fashionable and modest can be challenging. Modest women are usually left with having to choose between functionality, fashion, and full coverage. That's where burkini swimwear defies the norm.

At Wommo, we think swimwear can do better than cover—they should empower. Whether you're splashing around with the kids, catching waves, or just lounging at the beach with friends, burkinis give you freedom to be you, at ease and with confidence.

Here, we explore seven reasons why burkini swimwear isn't just a good choice—it's women's best choice if modesty and mobility matter to them. Let's get started.

Confidence Meets Coverage

Burkini swimwear is more than a trend—it's a revolution in how modest women can participate in water sports without sacrificing their values. Designed for full coverage and lightweight, breathable comfort, burkinis enable women to swim, surf, or relax poolside with confidence.

For customers such as Wommo's ideal customer, Aisha—a freethinking, active mum who holds modesty in high esteem as well as a love of freedom—the appropriate swimwear can make the difference. With carefully created choices such as the Swim Tunic, burkini swimwear is a passport to more freedom, not less.

Made for Movement

Unlike makeshift swim outfits or heavy fabric layers, quality burkini sets are made for movement. They’re streamlined to reduce drag in the water, dry quickly, and allow the full range of motion.

Wommo’s Swim Leggings are a perfect example—pair them with the tunic and you’ve got a chlorine- and salt-resistant outfit that looks sleek and feels just right whether you’re diving into waves or playing beach cricket with the kids.

Hijab-Friendly Options That Don’t Budge

One of the most frustrating issues for hijabi swimmers? Swim hijabs that shift, sag, or simply aren't safe to wear. Wommo's SwimNSplash Instant Swim Hijab in Terracotta solves this with no-nonsense construction that will not shift, even when things get heated.

This swimsuit combines style and function, hugging the body without compromising on coverage or comfort. It's part of a new trend in which modest swimwear for hijabi women is no longer an afterthought—it's the main event.

Stylish, Not “Second Best”

Get real: traditional modest swimwear options look like the fashion leftovers. But contemporary burkinis—especially from retailers like Wommo—prove that modesty and fashion aren't two words that go together.

From Dusty Purple softs to natural Terracotta, like the SwimNSplash Kimono Beach Cover-Up, take your style to a new level of effortless chic. No more baggy or awkward cuts. Clean lines, body-sculpting silhouettes, and thoughtfully picked colourways, which look just as sweet off as on the beach.

Mix and Match for Versatility

Another benefit of women's burkini swimwear today is that it is modular. Want more coverage for a beach walk? Attach a kimono cover-up. Want a lighter look for a swim? Use the tunic and leggings.

Wommo's swimwear line is layerable, so women can mix and match to suit their mood, activity, and level of comfort. Pieces like the Swim Shawl and Swim Tunic go together beautifully, enabling you to personalize your look without compromising modesty.

Engineered for Real Life

Burkini swimwear has come a long way from simply being "modest." Now, it's smart. Wommo's best sellers are full of smart features that address the everyday frustrations of their customers.

Think UV protection, chlorine resistance, and quick-drying fabrics. Think adjustable fits and stretchy fabrics that go with you. Each item is crafted with intention—for beach vacations, swim lessons, or island escapes. It's about ensuring modest women can plunge into life without restriction.

It’s More than Swimwear—It’s a Lifestyle

Wommo sells more than clothing. It's a brand about values: confidence, adventure, and community. What they sell, in part, is reflected in their swimwear, where Muslim women can choose an active lifestyle without the sacrifice of modesty and comfort.

Regardless of whether you're off swimming at the pool with the kids, snorkeling in the Maldives, or cruising the coastline with friends, Wommo has designed a line that inspires your journey—physically and soulfully. You can see it quite obviously in the way their customers continuously return again and again, ordering further purchases which encapsulate their evolving needs.

Sustainable Choices that Feel Good on Every Level

It all boils down to mindful consumption these days. Wommo's focus on quality, durability, and intelligent design is less waste, more long-lasting clothing. Buying burkini swimwear that stands the test of time is a win for you, sure—but it's also a win for the planet.

Spend money on timeless, well-made pieces not only benefits sustainable fashion practices in the industry—it's a value to your own ethics as well.

Perfect for Holidays, Beach Days and Poolside Lounging

Whether you're abroad on holiday or making the most of your local beach, burkini swimwear is perfect for doing it all. You don't need to bring a dedicated outfit for every activity—these multi-purpose pieces cater for swimming, sunbathing, and exploration.

Pair your Swim Tunic with sandals and the Kimono Cover-Up, and you have a smooth transition from pool to café.

Designed with Real Feedback from Real Women

One reason Wommo’s burkini swimwear resonates with so many women is because it’s designed with them, not just for them. From busy mums to active adventurers, feedback has shaped everything from fabric choices to fit. That’s why each piece offers practical touches like thumb holes, high necklines, and fuss-free fastenings that make a real difference.

You’re not just wearing a design—you’re wearing a solution.
