London’s so-called “Modest” Fashion Week will “celebrate” Britain’s growing sharia-compliant fashion industry — less than two weeks after women living under Islamic fundamentalist regimes risked imprisonment when they burned their hijabs on ‘No Hijab Day.’
Breitbart An event hosted by an anti-Trump brand at ‘Modest Fashion Week’ in London targeted Muslim consumers with a hijab fashion show. Described as an “exciting addition to the London fashion calendar” and “a celebration of style and global cultures”, London Modest Fashion Week will showcase “modest style” lines on the catwalk this weekend that appeal to every woman.
The show will also put on a sharia legal clinic and zakat (religious tax) hub at the Victoria House, Bloomsbury Square, venue.
Organised by the Islamic clothing curator Haute Elan, the fashion website’s founder Romanna Bint-Abubaker said in 2017: “The fastest growing global consumer is at the moment the Muslim market.
“One in three people by 2030 will be a Muslim in the world — that’s a huge population.”
Last year’s inaugural show was sponsored by the makeup brand Illamasqua which promised would “never knowingly sell” their products to supporters of U.S. President Donald J. Trump. This year, it is sponsored by the major American haircare brand.
Labelling sharia-compliant clothing “modest” begs the question whether women who do not comply with Islamic fundamentalist rules — and are ‘insufficiently’ covered — are deemed “immodest”.
Less than two weeks ago, social media was dominated by pictures and videos of women in Middle Eastern countries with strict legal dress codes burning their Islamic headscarves, or hijabs, accompanied by the hashtag #NoHijabDay.
The protests were in support of Iranian women demonstrating against the legally mandated headscarf that has been part of the Islamic Republic’s dress code since the country’s Islamic fundamentalist revolution in 1979. Prior to that, Iranian woman dressed like fashionable Western women everywhere.
Breitbart London revealed that the British government was promoting the “liberation” of the Islamic veil by encouraging Foreign and Commonwealth Office staff to wear the garment, issuing free hijabs on World Hijab Day (February 1st).
Last week, the government came under fire over hijabs in British culture again, after the former head of the schools’ watchdog Ofsted criticised the Department of Education for being too politically correct to support headteachers attempting to ban Islamic hijabs for underaged girls.
Retailers have been embracing the “Muslim market” with British department store chain House of Fraser launching “sporty hijabs” in 2015, high street leader Marks & Spencer selling the sharia-approved swimwear the burkini in 2016, and major retailer Debenhams adding Islamic headscarves and other ‘modest-wear’ to their ladies’ fashion line in 2017. Nike has also added an oppressed woman line for sports.
The cosmetic industry has reorientated its market focus towards Muslims when L’Oréal Paris UK hired the Instagram personality Amena Khan, who covers her hair completely with a hijab, to headline an ad campaign for hair care products in January. Khan later stepped down after anti-Israel posts from her Twitter account surfaced.

Truly, I am trying to love my enemies and I was much better at it when I was a young Christian. But I am finding it more difficult as time goes on as I watch the utter horror taking place in our world and knowing it will get worse, much worse. I am proud of America and her Constitution, but ashamed of my government.
I just want to let you all know, I appreciate your comments, I get angry right along with you and at times find myself smiling and laughing at your great sense of humors, especially needed in these trying times. One can place these news articles on BareNakedIslam next to the Bible and line them up perfectly. Yeshua will get his revenge in the end and one payback I am especially fond of is Isaiah 13:22 Jackals will howl in their palaces and “wild dogs” in their temples of delight. Its time is close at hand, its days will not last long.
Yeshua and His holy warriors will destroy Babylon (Saudi Arabia) and the wild dogs will run howling through their corrupt, idol worshiping temples of delight. I look forward to the day. Blessings to Everyone
BareNakedIslam says
LJW, as a Jew, I’ve never understood the concept of ‘love your enemy.’
Etti says
Bonni, for many years I followed the Christian belief that we should love our enemies.
Now I follow the advice of Scandinavian psychologists who say ‘use tit for tat’.
This produces better results and is more in keeping with a human’s natural instincts.
I don’t believe Jesus said that we should love our enemies. He had too much common sense for that and plenty of people have tinkered with the Bible.
Jesus was apparently quite handy with a whip when a money changer annoyed him.
We in the West are tolerating far more than the activities of a money changer.
BareNakedIslam says
Etti, yes, I guess after so many years, things get lost in translation.
Alexis says
Also, why all of a sudden, all the reality shows about “sister wives”? Trying to normalize polygamy for muslime acceptance. It’s all calculated brainwashing, so we will be all happy about living next door to a terrorist family.
BareNakedIslam says
Alexis, you know I never made that connection, but I think you’re right. The Sister wives aren’t legally married to one guy, are they?
Az gal says
Bonni: No, they are not. Only one wife is legally married to the husband. The others are considered spiritual marriages.
BareNakedIslam says
I see.
Alexis says
Ever wonder why over the last few years that a big fashion trend was, and is, the huge scarves wrapped around the neck? Ever ready to just pull up over the head at a moment’s notice.
Etti says
Alexis, so they are scarves. I always thought it was their bedding.
Az gal says
Another form of taqiyah. Muslums aren’t into high fashion! Two words that come to mind when viewing this is: aliens & scuba suits.
Steve S says
Islam and fashion in the same sentence is an oxymoron. Islam is opposed to anything like fashion because it draws attention to a woman’s beauty, especially physical beauty, whereas Islam requires that a woman subdues or hides her beauty except for her man only, that is, the man who owns her, her husband. So the idea that Islam or a Muslim woman can be fashionable is a contradiction of terms.
But of course, as we all know who visit this forum, Islam itself is rife with contradictions and hypocrisy, and Muslims themselves are hypocritical to the nth degree. The “modest” fashion show is anything but; just because she isn’t exposing any skin doesn’t make her modest. She actually sticks out and draws even more attention to herself. This is just another case of Muslims trying to have their cake and eat it too. Or perhaps is this some sort of “accommodation” by fashion outlets to make the unfashionable and undesirable fashionable and desirable? Ugly has become the new beauty? Hideous has become the new standard? It is an oxymoron on the fashion side of it too. It’s the Emperor’s New Clothes Incarnate!
SB says
Why is covering the head and hair a sign of modesty? Just asking.
BareNakedIslam says
Because Mohammed said so.
G P says
SB, I saw somewhere that hair on your head is considered to be the equivalent of pubic hair and therefore it must be covered. If that’s the case, then is a woman’s face regarded as genitalia?
The fashion houses will sink without trace because anyone can sew plain, boring, shapeless sacks to wear. Goodbye to showcasing female beauty and the millions this industry generates.
Etti says
Muslim females even girls as young as 13 are expected to remove their pubic hair. Muslim mothers have been known to give their young daughters tubes of hair removing cream. Very dangerous.
Az gal says
A lot of them use homemade sticky sugar solutions to yank it out. Razors are for men.
Etti says
OUCH! ???
Troybeam says
Did research:https://islamqa.info/en/202827
removing pubic hair for men and women is considered a health issue and a clean issue, guess soap and water is not enough then again they don’t use toilet paper per sharia law.
Etti says
Muslim men should tackle their own lack of modesty. I detest the public butt raising they enjoy. They are unaware that their scruffy trousers reveal very immodest butt cracks as these trousers are stretched over large behinds.
No wonder Muslims want us all to convert to Islam. This frequent spectacle is the highlight of their day and they want us to have an equally enjoyable life!! ???
Pray Hard says
I’ve been saying for years that a part of their jihad would be through “fashion” and dumbass leftist females.
Don Spilman says
Facilitators of izslime are among the most stupid and the most evil people on the planet. Whoever is assisting the vile creatures in this endeavor need to be on a list, they are promoting izslime over our own constitution which will hasten the destruction of our whole way of life, and that is TREASON!!!! Treason is still one of the most heinous crimes a person can commit and there are literally many thousand of FOOLS doing so every day. Some do so out of ignorance some very knowingly and purposefully.
Stevo says
Don,
that’s why Tony Blair did away with the death sentence for treason, because he knew one day he might be charged with it.
He’s fooling himself if he thinks he will be held accountable in a normal court of law.
Don Spilman says
Stevo, that’s fascinating I didn’t know ol muzslime lover tony did that. When the law breaks down and you all have the proper equipment to do something about these damned evil fools I sure hope ol tony is done away with, he hurt England bad.
Georgo says
Stuff them. The U.K, France, Germany, Sweeden have become Euroabia. God bless Poland, Hungary and Czech for standing up to the Eurofascists leftists. Hopefully Itally can be liberated in the March elections.
And hopefully in Greece next year.
Anyway news flash, the Netherlands will recognize the 1915 Armenian genocide. A bit late. Mad dog turkeys ErDogan is not happy.
https://sputniknews.com/society/201802181061770334-netherlands-to-recognize-1915-armenian-genocide/
BareNakedIslam says
Georgo, the U.S. has NOT yet recognized the Armenian Genocide. Both Bush and Obama said they would but never did. Trump has not weighed in on it, but I hope he will recognize it.
Freely says
Spoilman I think your comments are childish and lose visitors to this site..Your Hate does not help our cause,.
Don Spilman says
Your ignorance doesn’t do much for anyone here either. My HATE IS TOTALLY PURPOSEFUL. and if you do not HATE IZSLIME it’s because you are one or you are very ignorant.
asleepin europe says
I am not muslim and defend my culture…without using comments or actions you suggest…
Etti says
Freely, if your remarks refer to Don Spilman, I have to say that he is fighting the battle against Islam with the strength that is required.
I hate Islam and its followers and if you think that love and tolerance rather than hate are the correct methods to stop the sly taking over of Western countries, then you have not done enough research. I hate cruelty; Muslims love it, for them it is an aphrodisiac. I speak for the voiceless, never the brainwashed millions.
In Muslim countries dogs are injected with acid when a painless drug would suffice if these people want to get rid of dogs. In Thailand 7,000 Christians and Buddhists beheaded in ten years. Muslims invaded the island of Banda and forcibly circumcised every man and woman in that Christian community. In Myanmar the parasitic Rohyngas behead Buddhist children, kidnap and rape Buddhist women. In the UK Muslim men form grooming gangs to entrap girls into prostitution involving cruel gang raping, one rapist to each orifice at the same time.
Muslims have brought their cruel halal slaughter to the UK and want sharia law with its amputations, stoning and plenty of filthy forms of sex.
They are merciless.
I have researched Islam for over twenty years and it has turned me from a lifelong pacifist to someone who would simply shrug if I saw Muslims and their brats being rounded up and thrown out of our country, even violently.
Comments like yours have helped Britain get closer to becoming an Orwellian country with Big Brother implementing laws crushing free speech.
Many, many generations of my family have fought to give us freedom and democracy. And if people do not like what we say on this website then they are free to leave. We are not here to love our enemies, we are here to spread the unvarnished truth.
Don Spilman says
Thanks Etti you understand don’t you that it is going to take righteous HATE with wisdom to get rid of the vile muzslime. I never in my long life ever thought I could sense as pure a HATE as I have in the last ten years ( you have 10 years more understanding, I respect that) of studying the vile followers of a very evil cruel creature by the name of motheMAD….It’s going to take hate of evil to get this job done., and there are still soooooo many totally ignorant complacent fools who do not get it.
Purge muslim filth says
L’Oreal hiring filth in a hijab for a hair care ad makes about the same sense as visionwear putting Ray Charles in one of their ads.
BareNakedIslam says
PMF, LOL!
bonita says
These designers would sell their own mothers to make a buck. As far as Trump. evil hates good.
Jose Rivera says
so, moslem women in Iran have the courage to throw off the chains of tents…and now England promotes this savage garbage…..europe is so over.
Cleavis Nowell (@CleavisNowell) says
The Freddy Krueger Horror movie series and “The Blob” monster movie must be modest fashion too.
alkidya says
The fashion show is like something out of “Medieval Times”…women are being thrust backward 1400 years.
Peter35 says
Yes, and too stupid to realize it! They will find out–too late!
Like the French, Swedes and Germans, the Brits are determined to keep taking their stupid pills, and embracing their new ‘super-cult’, islam. Way to go, Brits!
Etti says
Not all of us, Peter. Many get out on the streets in protest and go to prison for long sentences.
Don Spilman says
I believe there is a soon coming time Etti When those prison doors are going to be opened and these good people are going to have opportunity to right some wrongs. I truly hope Anders Breivik gets broken out soon.
I sure hope and pray you all can get hold of weapons of personal offense.
Peter35 says
Etti, yes I know there are decent Brits who still know right from wrong, but it’s amazing how many clueless traitors there are in ALL western countries.
Don, I don’t see Breivik getting out any time soon. But the violence coming in the future will perhaps show him as simply being before his time….
patriot says
What a joke. This FASHOIN idea is to show real beauties. If Muslim women are supposed to be covered hair to toe, what are they doing in this show? Hypocrites!
Etti says
Pathetic attempt at being ‘fashionable’. More like the ugly sisters in the Cinderella pantomime. Imagine wearing this cheap looking stuff on the London Underground, especially the escalators.
Enough to make a cat laugh! ???
SB says
Have to laugh – at Heathrow they have horizontal travelaters like escalators but flat. The ‘steps’ are ridged with combs at the ends to trap rubbish. Have seen one woman with robes get caught and the whole covering was torn off her and disappeared into the inner workings. Then there are loose rubber sandals – they too get caught on the combs and are sucked in. It happens!!
Etti says
SB, thanks for that. Mediaeval women are not suited to life in 2018.
Susan K says
When they take off the headbag, their hair is flattened on their skull. They never talk about that.
Az gal says
Susan: Greasy & disgusting looking, isn’t it?
Lincoln Applegate Hahn says
Mr. and Mrs. Ibrahim and Ibraher “Doggie” Hooper : If these full skirts had hoops …. they would be Southern Plantation “ante bellum” …. except Islam doesn’t have an “ante bellum” tradition …. Islam was born of war …. and hasn’t known peace for 1400 years …. that is very immodest procedure ?
Don Spilman says
Muzslime are very sick mentally ill, twisted creatures and those who are not muzslime but promote them are just plain EVIL.
