Burkini Muslim Swimsuit

A burkini swimsuit is a type of swimsuit designed to comply with the Quranic specifications for Muslim women to dress modestly. The word "burkini" is a combination of "burqa" and "bikini". The suit covers the whole body except the face, the hands and the feet, whilst being light enough to enable swimming.

When I play the Sims I go for realism. Muslims is a part of multicultural Europe, so naturally there are Muslims in my game. There isn't much Muslim clothing around for the Sims, though with a little creativity and the games inbuilt pattern editor you can accommodate most of the suit types. Swimsuits on the other hand is harder to find. As a matter of fact I only found one that was a conversion of an everyday Salwar Kameez. So I created a couple of Muslim swimsuits for the Sims.

Normally a Burkini has a fixed hood that is a part of the swimsuit it self. Because of the games limitation I have not made a hood, but I have made the neck as high as possible, so that it would fit with the in game Scooba hoods from EP 10 Island paradise. If you don't have Island paradise you can also use the Shower cap from EP 6 Show time. Of cause it also works fine with the Hijabs from Skeletal Screams or Procrasimnation

BurkiniMediumSkirt is a recolor from a TankDress from the Stuff Pack: Diesel. So you will need that stuff pack in order to use it.
BurkiniWideSkirt is a recolor from the base game Cheerleader outfit. So it will work in any game combination.

Both version are enabled from teen through elder. Both are made in tree colors. BurkiniMediumSkirt in coral blue, bright spring green, and purple. BurkiniWideSkirt in coral blue, bright spring green, and dusty red. This is the type of colors that you would typically see Burkini's in. I haven't made any floral designs, but it is fully possible to do with the pattern editor in game.

For Package files:

1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Files^wiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).

For Sims3Pack files:

1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).


Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
