Over the past few years, there has been a huge growth in the Muslimah fashion blogging community, or better known as Hijabistas, not just in Malaysia but throughout the globe. These influencers have changed the idea of how to infuse the modern lifestyle into the core of what it means to be a modern Muslimah.
The media used to portray Muslimah as those shrouded in pitch black robes, fully covered from head to toe, feeding the stereotype idea that modern lifestyle, fashion and the religion of Islam itself could not mix. However, with movements such as the Modest Street Fashion by Langston Hues, a Muslim African-American photographer as well as the rise of the numerous Hijabistas throughout the internet and social media, the spectators of the world have slowly come to realize that the potrayal by the media is in fact, incorrect.
