Hijabs hit the high street: modesty is as valid a choice as choosing flats over heels
2017
Overview
UK high streets are also buying into the trend with Debenhams soon to become the first major UK department store to sell hijabs as part of a new range of Muslim clothing. [...]at this year's Grammy Awards, singer Adele wowed audiences in an olive green, floor-skimming Givenchy Haute Couture gown, with a checkered bodice and delicate beaded sleeves. The burkini first appeared in the UK limelight when TV chef Nigella Lawson wore the head-to-toe three-piece garment on holiday in Australia in 2011. Modest wear is being introduced to add variety to the UK fashion industry and doesn't just mean the introduction of hijabs and burkinis - it also means clothing that offers more coverage for a wide range of women from different cultures and religions. The London-based public speaker champions the freedom to wear modest fashion for all women and wants to become a positive role model, regardless of religion.
