Japanese clothing company Uniqlo has introduced its first dedicated hijab collection for sale in Malaysian stores on August 17, expanding its modest clothing range. The three-piece collection includes styles named AlRism, Satin, and Georgette. The AlRism hijab, made from Uniqlo's signature performance fabric, offers UV protection and temperature regulation, ideal for Malaysia's humid climate.
The Satin style has a subtle sheen, suitable for semi-formal events, while the Georgette style features a fluid material and elegant drape. All hijabs come in triangular cuts and an array of colors, with the Georgette version available in 12 shades and the AlRism style in eight neutral tones. The Satin hijab is available in six rich colors, including rust and black.
Despite the growing trend of modest wear in the fashion industry, Uniqlo's hijab collection remains unavailable in the Middle East due to the company's lack of retail presence in the region. International online stores and travellers to Malaysia can purchase the hijabs through Aramex's Shop & Ship service. The availability of the collection in other countries remains uncertain.
