Biography
Before the 20th century, people who wanted to go swimming in mixed company but keep their modesty would wear bathing costumes that covered nearly as much skin as their regular clothing. Men could be arrested for swimming topless. These are relatively rare in Western culture in the current day but are still used in cultures where body modesty is considered paramount, such as among Muslims (the style is called a "burqini") Not to be confused with modern wetsuits or bodyskins, which also cover more skin but are for protection and competition purposes, not modesty. these will be seen either in period stories where they're appropriate, or on an individual character to show that he or she is hopelessly old-fashioned, extremely modest, or downright prudish. Stereotypically, the horizontally striped models from between 1900 and 1910 are used, as swimwear started becoming more daring in the 1920s.
