Today, we take a look at Arabic Muslim Fashion, namely hijab (headscarf) styles in Egypt. Inspired by a recent trip to Cairo, we showcase Egyptian Style Muslim Fashion. The majority of the women in Egypt wear hijab - this was a surprise to us! We were told that the numbers of women wearing the hijab today has substantially increased compared to the 1980s. How cool is that?
Although, some of the younger ones tend to pair their lovely and colorful hijabs with form fitting clothes (which defies the purpose of Islamic conception of modest dress), Egyptian Muslim fashion is innovative. Hijabs are carefully color coordinated; and long tunics and pants are standard street Muslim women wear.
