Islamic clothing is all about covering more but that never means, Islamic fashion is outdated, right! While donned in the modest clothing you can never look ‘un fashionable’ and mumsy. Let’s delve deeper, let’s take a closer look at the Islamic fashion trend. Innumerable styles, varied trends and awesome splendor, the Islamic fashion trend are all about the latest Hijab style, Abayas and many more.

Be it with the V shape hijab fashion or the square shawl hijabs the idea is simple- to cover your modesty and to look good! There are beautiful combinations of Islamic Hijabs available these days. These actually range from classic white pieces in one piece with a fabric to the sheer finish of the georgette shawl which is devoid of any lace. Well, these might look relatively simple but trust me; these are the classic styles which hardly ever go out of fashion.


Just like the white ones, there is also the common black hijabs, which range from the plain black chiffon shawls worn as hijab to small designs woven or painted on the black hijab. Some of these are the single piece of hijabs and do not contain any lace on the edges.

By integrating the trendy elements from the western fashions the new age Islamic clothing trend has indulged into Abaya fabrics, styles and texture with an incredible modern appeal.

Hijab: Summer styles revealed

Modesty is a virtue and Islam demands this from men and women. The most powerful verses in Surah al-Nur and begin with the words: “Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that will make for greater purity for them: and Allah is well aware of what they do. (24:31)” Yes , modesty is the very core of Islamic religion and has been time and time again being revealed amidst the soft ruffle of the Abayas, amidst the sheer femininity of the Hijab.

Honestly, the soft veil hanging from your head makes you look feminine, gorgeous, modest and much more. Yes, we are talking about Hijab, the traditional Islamic clothing for women. However, wearing the Hijaab is not just putting a piece of cloth on your head rather it stands as an attitude, perhaps a philosophy and behaving, and at the day’s end accepting yourself for who and what you are.

You are right; the Abaya, Hijab or any other Islamic clothing constitutes an Islamic way of life. It is more like proclaiming a statement, which portrays a certain attitude. Well, let me be honest here Hijab or the modest clothing is certainly not something to restrict you from doing the kind of things you want to do but it is a blessing which checks our behavior and shields our modesty.

The good news the age old shawl hijabs are now the thing of the past and the latest hijab fashion brings out the very beat of Islamic fashion trend which has now taken the fashion industry by storm. The spring sprung and summer is now round the corner. It’s time to update your wardrobe with the latest summer hijabs. Well, these are just the perfect way to stay cool this summer. The scarves are much lighter made from the breathable material and are now available in an array of colors, designs and patterns. Yes, still maintaining the requirements of the modest clothing, today the hijab fashion has been revolutionized and the summer hijab style has been developed into the perfect symbol of modern 21st century Muslim clothing.

In fact the secret to the right summer Hijab or Abaya is certainly the fabric . While cotton still dominates the market yet linen, rayon and silk are equally loved by the women. Keep those dark and heavy weight polyester fabric hijab at the back of your wardrobe until the notice of winter!
