Matsalleh Design makes swimming fun and fashionable for modest women
As the saying goes, some of the best things in life happen accidentally. Dovile Kazokeviciute’s idea to start a modest swimsuit line came about when she saw a group of Muslim women at her condo’s swimming pool not wearing proper swimsuits. Instead, they opted for tights and T-shirts to cover up. “I asked myself, ‘Why are they not wearing fashionable swimwear?’ After doing some research, I realised there were not many choices to begin with.

Corpus Christi’s Bill Witt Park on Southside is getting swimming pool
Editor’s note: This story has been updated to reflect that the design of the proposed pool at Bill Witt Park is slated to be finished in late 2022.
