All these year's Muslim females have faced the issue of finding an acceptable swimwear which adheres to the Koran, which needs a woman to cover everything except her hands, face and feet.The swimwear available in the market were either not centered for the Muslim women as they led to show of skin or were unpractical for swimming. To aptly explain how uncomfortable the Muslim swimwear designed for Muslimahs was I shall quote Aheda Zanetti who wrote to the National Geographic News stating "As an active Muslim girl, I found it difficult to take part in most sports, because of all the excess garments we were wearing. And the veil very unpractical while playing sports".For a market that wasn't centered by big market share holders like Nike scattering little firms took the initiative of coming up with something fruitful for Muslimahs. Zanetti, is the owner of Ahiida, an Australian company that designs ladies's sports clothing. Oliver Momeni started his venture of Bodykini in 2007, based in Spain and Hasema a Turkish company started designing a line of Muslim swimwear for men, girls and youngsters. Among all these products the most admired and reviewed is Bodykini Modest Swimwear.Surely, Oliver had the support and viewpoints of his Iranian family members and an experience of over 20 years in the family textile business. Before planning the final product "Bodykini", Oliver conducted lots of market research and held talks with many Muslim women. In the course of his time , he learned the vital attributes targeted while planning the swimsuit. It does so by removing all the excess fabric that the previous Muslim swimwear provided like the veil, pants and skirts. The fabric used is a top quality water-repellent fabric that is not only highly Chlorine resistant but also provides protection from ultraviolet rays. The first feature is the 2 elastic bands that are attached at the within the pants that get buttoned to the interior of the suit, which forestall the suit from floating in case the swimmer performs a feet first dive. The second feature is the tiny pocket with a zipper in the pants for keeping little items like keys or money.Bodykini is available online at [please contact me for website address] The Bodykini modest swimming suit is starting to become popular among not simply the Muslim population but also among all those girls who like to cover their bodies and stop the tans while enjoying the relaxing water.Having said all this, Oliver Momeni isn't just being thanked by Muslimahs for introducing such a fabulous product in the market but the big players are looking forward to promote products like Bodykini which is showing a particularly good grip on the swimwear market. Taylor, of Azizah Mag , announces that "Many years from now there's going to be a sizable Muslim consumer market and plenty of demand".I think we are where the Hispanic market was fifteen years back and today the Hispanic market is a big consumer market." Further more, Arun Jain, a marketing instructor at the College of Buffalo in New York State, agrees and states that given the growth potential of the Muslim community in the US, major sportswear manufacturers could be missing out on an opportunity to break into an emerging market.
