The gowns, created in partnership with Henna & Hijabs and the consultation of Children's Minnesota pediatric clinicians and patient families, come in four sizes, and are designed with sleeves that are 3/4 length, a detachable hijab component and a closure that can be worn either front- or back-facing to give providers and patients flexibility.

'The modesty gown, a long overdue innovation, merges health care and fashion design expertise. Historically, patient gowns have largely not seen redesign that addresses inclusivity to this scale.
