Girls' modesty garments

Abstract

A young girl's modesty garment substantially covering a wearer's pelvic region and a relatively short length of the wearer's upper thighs, may include a fitted panty portion including a main panty body partially bounded by a left leg opening and a right leg opening, and a crotch portion disposed at a lower vertical edge of the main panty body and laterally centered between the left and right leg openings. The modesty garment further comprises right and left fitted leg bodies permanently affixed to and contiguous with the panty portion at a seam disposed at the right and left leg openings, respectively. The right and left leg bodies extend downward from the right and left leg openings respectively. The right and left leg bodies each have a lower end disposed below the crotch portion, such that the right and left fitted leg bodies at least partially cover the upper thighs of a user when worn.
