HCY Sunday Fun, July 24th, 2011

Sunday Style

Last Hijabers Community Yogyakarta (HCY)'s Sunday Fun (July 24th, 2011) was great. We had 'tausiyah Ramadhan' by Ustadz Edi and an interesting sharing about Hijab and Fashion; Also, a Fashion Garage Sale on Rahmadinna Boutique's yard.

The 'tausiyah' talked about what should we do to welcome the Holy Month of Ramadhan (topic: "Marhaban yaa Ramadhan") and Q.S. Maryam: 16 - 36 (about Maryam a.s. who was ordered to 'shaum' / fasting < in this case, not talking to anyone > just after she gave birth of Prophet Isa a.s. And then Baby Isa a.s. himself spoke out to explain about who He is). 

After the 'tausiyah', a special guest from University of Colorado, Carla Jones, an Assistant Professor of Anthropology, raised up some questions to the forum for sharing and being discussed regarding to her research on women, hijab, and fashion.



At the end of Sunday Fun event.. is time for photoshoots! :)


In the events like this, usually we can see various creative looks of hijab worn by Muslimahs.

My favorite look in the picture above is the look of one sister at the corner of bottom right. Her hijab was exceeded to her hip. It looks like an 'all in one' headscarf and vest. She also accessorized it with a loose thin belt at the hip... looks chic and unique.

And also this sister. With just a simple little headband, her hijab style looked different.

Love these hijab wraps:

I have taken my time to look at the gallery, and I was stunned by many amazing designs. You all are so creative! :)

The Jazmina by Antonia from USA is one of my favorites. I love the concept, the usefulness and the practicality of her design. Also, her design reminds me of a kind of jilbab or coat my sister has been looking for.
