Black & White Embroidered Coat with Zebra Hijab


Inspired by a Tekbir Giyim Outfit shown in the introduction posting. This would be a great outfit for work or Jummah. The shift dress that comes with the coat is great, it means if its hot you can leave the coat open. The coat is a lot shorter than the Tekbir Giyim one, if you prefer you could wear a black skirt.

Welcome to my Tesettür-Hijab Blog

Salaam alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatu,

I am a big fan of the way Turkish women wear hijab/cover themselves, called Tesettür which commonly features a square silk scarf (eşarp) and a coat (manteau) suit with either trousers or a long skirt. I plan to show pictures and videos of Tesettür as inspiration, use Polyvore to imitate these outfits, share links from Tesettür websites and find Tesettür items within normal hijab and Western clothing shops.
