Fashion is versatile and that’s why Muslim women, like Basma Kahie, are very much respected in the fashion industry because women like her have been able to shatter the stereotype in which they once were placed.

For most Muslim women, the Hijab is a wardrobe staple. Many even have special spots for all their hijabs, aside from the hijab as a staple there is also blazers and maxi skirts.
