Tutorial Hijab Ala Paris

Zeena's Winter Collection debut in beginning January 2012

Zeena, a modest chic women's clothing line, is about to launch its Winter collection.

I have been a fan of Zeena Clothing for some time and always excited to see what new design will come up with each of their new collection. What I love from Zeena's collection is that each of the pieces look comfortable to wear, well tailored, in pretty and trendy designs with the urban chic style.

Below are "never before seen" pictures and products of Zeena's Winter collection:

I love each of these pieces, and it will be a stylish yet demure way to warm out your days..

The button-up hoody, which will be available in 3 colors.

A scarf and a green necklace, as a part of the new Scarf and Jewelry collection.

Leopard Neck-scarf, which is a part of the new neck-scarf collection.

These pieces are starting their debuts today, on January 8th, 2012.

You can see them out on Zeena's site: www.simplyzeena.com; They are ready to style up your look! ;)

Dian Pelangi with her collection. In Paris, Dian showcased 10 set of her collection in the fashion show as the opening show, inspired by the Russian style for Winter fashion.

As a continuation from my previous post: End of Year 2011's Style and Fashion News, about Indonesian Muslim Fashion that was acknowledged as the best and the most favorite design in the International Fair of The Moslem World 2011 in Le Bourget, Paris, France, an interesting news also came from Kompas Female newsletter.

It is written that not only Muslimah Fashion's designs from Indonesian designers have "a big applause" at The International Fair in Paris, but also the way Indonesian Muslim women wrap their headscarf attracted a big attention of people in Paris, France.

Read the full story in Bahasa Indonesia here:

And below is the picture of Dian Pelangi in Indonesian booth at the event, giving a tutorial on how she wrap her headscarf in turban style:

Dian pelangi gave a private tutorial to the booth's visitors who were interested in how she wrap her headscarf.

According to Dian's prediction, as she said to Kompas Female newsletter here, after the 'drape-y look' hijab wrapping, which is so 'in trend' amongst urban young Muslimah in Indonesia last year, the 'turban style' hijab wrapping would be a trend in 2012.

One thing from the news that also grab my attention is about Dian Pelangi's Coat.

It is the almost "sold out" piece from Dian Pelangi Collection in that event. It showed that many people in Paris love Dian's coat design, especially perhaps because they were in Winter during that event and they love colorful outfits, so the stylish, shocking-color, ethnic coat would be an attraction for them.

I'm so in love with the coat, too.. :)

Here is one sample of Dian Pelangi's cropped coat design:
Taken from her style blog, The Merchant Daughter.



The coat was made from modified Palembang woven materials which made in Indonesia.
I love the coat's well-tailored cut, motif and color.


So, what's your opinion on this news?

Hello, Everyone.

This is the first post in the year of 2012. I want to wish you all the best and may Alloh SWT bless you in the future days.

Here is a quotation I love from People Who Inspire Us which I think would be a good spirit for us on starting our new days in 2012 :

Inspire yourself and others will be inspired. Motivate yourself and others will be motivated. Develop yourself and others will start to develop themselves.

Be an example first and then the world changes around you.

Today, I want to share a great news on Muslimah Fashion and some style tips I found at the end of 2011, and several new modest clothing lines for women.

A great news, especially for Indonesia, came from Paris, France.

As you have read from my previous post here about The International Fair of The Muslim World 2011 in Le Bourget Exhibition Center, Paris, on December 2011, thirteen top muslimah fashion designers from Indonesia held an exhibition/fashion show to showcase their designs and collection in that event.

And... the great news is... the fashion designs from Indonesian designers become THE BEST and THE MOST FAVORITE at this International Fair in Paris, France!!

Indonesia also get an honour as the honourable country, L'Indonesie Pays D'Honneur (negara kehormatan). This means that Indonesia can be the world's hub of Muslim Fashion.

Yeeyy... I love to hear this and I am glad for you, Indonesia! :)

Next International Fair of the Muslim World InshaAllah will be held on November 2, 3 and 4, 2012, in Le Bourget - Paris. So, keep an eye out! ;)
