Hijab Work Outfits (part 1)
Modest Monochrome
Hijab style work outfits
working with wardrobe staples
Whether you’re going to an interview or need to look sharp for work here are some ideas to get you looking smart and feeling comfortable.
Waistcoat wonders
I designed all the main pieces, but they are items most of us already have in our wardrobe. If you like them then inshAllah they will be available from my MAYSAA label before the summer.
But for now, let’s get to work on our work wear…
Wardrobe staples: Three ways to wear a white shirt and long black skirt
Skirts
Keep the bones of the outfit simple, monochrome colours always work well. There’s nothing smarter then a crisp white shirt but if you want a more casual look then team it with a cardigan. First impressions count at an interview, so make sure your jacket works well with the outfit.
Trouser Outfits
Islamic style: Trouser outfits (all my design)
Personally, I like trousers as long as they’re wide enough. They allow more movement if you’re rushing around all day and are comfortable. Here they are worn with a long loose top. If you want smart then go with the waistcoat, it adds structure to the floaty top. If you want a slightly more casual look then complete the outfit with a printed scarf.
The Details
Modest style: Details of the waistcoat and hijab
I love small details on outfits. One of the reasons I designed the hijab the way I did was because so many of my tops had interesting neckline details. So by having this opening you frame these gorgeous design details.
