You know that family who's in the news for having 17 kids in Arkansas, and all their names start with J?
I watched a documentary about them, and the mom specifically mentioned that they try to wear clothes that draw attention to their face (she called it their "countenance.") All the girls wore sort of sailor-blouses and all the boys wore normal polo-type shirts. They seem like they would be into the modest swimwear trend too.
I agree, those look a little cumbersome. I can understand wanting to wear swimwear that's not revealing, but I think it's going to be difficult to swim in anything that doesn't basically cling to your body. It's a tradeoff, I guess.
