Re: When fashion becomes vulgarity …
Hey CB!! I totally agree with you!! I may not wear hijab but I dress as modest as I can. I may wear jeans/pants and shirts but I try to wear long sleeves or 3/4 sleeves and I try my best to not show unecessary skin. When American people see me dressed they don’t think of me as any different than anyone else cuz I am dressed not only modestly but fashionably as well, if not just as fashionable as women my age today. Half dressed does not automatically equal fashion! I was suprised to see at this stupid Lux award thing in Pakistan that females who are supposed to represent Islam were half dressed. Some were wearing sleevless and/or tummy showing saris and other westerns style dresses revealing shoulders etc. It was so tauba. My aunt and I watched it on Ary at her house and my aunt was just as disapointed as well.Mind you my aunt goes out and works and when she dresses she wears American style clothing that is fashiobale yet conservative. Living in the west means I dress like a western girl but not to the point I lose my morals/values/religious beliefs. I wish I could convince people you can still be fashionable yet covered mostly. Let me post an example of a fashionably dressed woman who is also modest:
