EXCITING NEWS FOR OUR MUSLIM SISTERS AS DOLCE & GABANNA HAS LAUNCHED ITS FIRST HIJAB AND ABAYA COLLECTION

After H&M got loads of love for featuring its first Muslim model, we hoped the fashion industry would sit up, take notice, and start expanding their offerings to include women who choose to wear the hijab.

But the fashion world’s response has been pretty underwhelming. It’s still a struggle for Muslim women to find fashion-forward clothing that meets their needs, without heading to a specialist shop or going custom-made.

One fashion label taking a step in the right direction is Dolce & Gabbana.

The pieces have incredible detailing and texture. (Picture: Dolce & Gabbana)

Style.com/Arabia were the first to showcase D&G’s debut collection of high end hijabs and abayas (the full length dresses often worn by Muslim women), highlighting the brand as one of the few major fashion labels to tap into this prominent demographic.

The collection looks incredible, full of texture, embroidered lace, and pops of print, all in a fairly neutral, wearable colour palette.

A bit out of our price range, but still. So pretty. (Picture: Dolce & Gabbana)

Sure, the range will be far beyond most people’s price range – it is Dolce & Gabbana, after all – but we’re still pretty obsessed.
