Something is happening in the U.S. in regards to Muslimwear. Fashions shows are popping up catering to the Muslim woman rapidly. Is it the demand? The rapid growth of Muslim American designers? or have they been there all along and due to the increase usage of social media networks, we are just finding out? It's probably a little too early to read on some statistics, but one fact is true; there is huge demand for clothing catered to the Muslim woman.
With two fashion shows that have already ended this year, one which is in it's 6th year standing in California and ended yesterday, Fashion Fighting Famine and the other one hosted by International Sister's Network and who is on on its 17th year in Washington ended on March 10th. So, what's coming for the rest of the year? We rounded up the upcoming ones, but do check back on this link for updated ones.
