We\u2019re pretty sure these questions and more always haunt you when you are trying on clothes. Don\u2019t fret \u2013 we\u2019re as paranoid as you are! Whether or not you are wearing the hijab, modesty is always our number one priority being a Muslim woman.<\/p>\n

\u201cMuslimah Fashion Guide\u201d is a series that shows you the essentials on how to incorporate modesty with fashion. Modesty\u00a0doesn’t\u00a0have to equate to being dull and dowdy. The trick is to find pieces that cover up the necessary while still playing with colours, fabric and styles. The series kick-off with\u2026<\/p>\n

Tunics\/ Shift Dress<\/h2>\n

Varied in length, these are great to have in our wardrobe as it conceals our derri\u00e8re and provides some coverage to our thighs depending on its length. The relaxed fitting of it plays to our advantage in being modest. An added plus is that it doesn\u2019t accentuate the mid-section, for those of us who have some issues<\/em> in that department.<\/p>\n

They come in various sleeve-lengths such long, three-quarters or even sleeveless. Having them in different styles and fabrics is a good investment as it can be worn for running errands, day\/night out or even work-wear. The price tag on these also varies depending on fabric, style and brand.<\/p>\n

Spoilt for choice? Grab them in basic colours and fabrics such as black and brown. If you\u2019re feeling adventurous, add a splash of colour like coral or pink to brighten up the look.<\/p>\n
