Everyone knows that the fashion industry in
Malaysia has been focusing on the Islamic fashion trends. Most of our local designers
are supporting this too. They created very beautiful pieces for Muslim women.
If you compare 10 years back, it is very difficult to buy ready made pieces
that is syariah compliance. Muslim women need clothes and hijab. In previous
years, everbody used the word ‘tudung’ as the head cover. Or now the term is
changed. We called it ‘hijab’ and the muslimah fashionista is called
‘hijabista’.
There are soooooooo many types of hijab. The styles
change from time to time. The price also varies. You can buy ‘tudung instant’
or for more adventrous, you can buy the ‘tudung lilit’. Tudung lilit means you
need to wrap it with your own style. Now, many shops sells a tudung look like
‘tudung belit’ but it’s actually an ‘instant tudung’. :P
Wide shawl is one of the hijab trends. It’s normal
shawl but it’s wider than a normal shawl. So, you can style it in many ways as
long as you cover your chest properly. Insya-Allah. Wide shawls have the modest
touch. There are many hijabistas who share videos on how to style hijab in many
different ways.
If you have no idea how to pull off a wide shawl
look successfully with the current trend, take a look at these three wide shawl styles perfect for the
hijabistas.
1.
Flower crown
The flower crown trend has
seen a comeback since last year and hijabistas are rocking it at weddings, girls
day out and important occasions. Accessorize your wide shawls by wearing a
flower crown top and you will definitely have a sweet feminine look. Make sure
you wear a plain wide shawl to perfectly balance the flower crown look. Have
fun and reveal that soft innocence of your with this trendy hijab style.

2.
Statement necklace
Meanwhile if you prefer to
look more glamourous, you can always spice up your wide shawls with a nice
statement necklace. Statement necklaces will absolutely enhance your simple
look into a more improved touch. Flaunt this look to work, dinner parties or
formal events and feel confident all day long. Besides that, this hijab look
definitely shoes off your sophisticated mature side effortlessly.
Mommy wore the necklace
from Lovisa during the previous 2013 KL Fashion Week.
But during this time, the
wide shawl is not very famous yet.
3.
Headpiece
Other than that, you can
always be a little daring by matching your wide shawl look with a pretty
headpiece. It serves the same purpose as a flower crown but provide women a
more exclusive look. The headpieces are great for hijabistas to wear to
important occasions especially if you want to have that Egyptian element to
your look. Rock it with confidence and be the center of attention.
Mommy wore this headpiece
from Lovisa. But you can get more selection from Zalora. Find it under 'hair
accessories'. You can get all these 3 types of accessories from Zalora. The
necklace collection is awesome. You definitely buy more than 1. Hehehee.
Now, it’s so easy to shop
your shawl. You don’t have to go to Jalan TAR to get one. Just go online and
shop from Zalora. They have all types of hijab and their service is very fast.
You will get your items at your doorstep as fast as tomorrow. What are you
waiting for?
