My favorite fabric for scarves/hijabs is silk, hands down. Let me explain why I personally like it the best. It exudes delicacy, and it casts an ethereal ambiance. I’m referring to silk chiffon specifically. It’s sheer, not very slippery and floats in the wind from its light weight. Silk is also pricier than cotton and polyester due to the difficulty of production which makes it more valuable. 100% silk chiffon scarf from the middle eastI believe that no matter what one’s face shape, skin color or personal fashion style is, they can pull off silk. Silk chiffon will, of course, add a certain feminine look to a person, which may give off a limiting feeling to how it can be dressed. You can easily change up the color and wrapping style to accommodate your personal style. As a hijab, people tend to wear silk to weddings and high occassions, but I believe you can wear it anywhere and any time of the day as long as you wash it correctly and maintain it’s natural quality. I’ve had the same silk scarves that I purchased from the middle east years ago, and they still look like brand new. I found that it’s a bit tough to find silk chiffon scarves in the U.S., and it’s been tougher to get my hands on them especially since I’m not traveling due to covid, and so I decided to…make one or two! The one’s I handmade are silk georgette spandex, more durable than silk chiffon. The feeling of being able to share something online that I think is worth it, is very rewarding! It feels even better when a customer tells me how much they love it (the Silk Hijab Scarf is on both of my brand websites if you’re interested, and I offer black and off-white at the moment – links down below). Nora Dabas ‘The Silk Hijab Scarf’ in black I do wear cotton hijabs more often just because I don’t have to worry about accidentally ripping the silk when I throw it on really quickly in the morning to drop my son off at school. Going out with a friend, visiting family, having people over, etc. are all perfect occasions to wear silk and to look more presentable. I’d rather be overdressed than underdressed, always. Do you own a silk scarf? If so, what color is it, and how often do you wear it?

I was confined in four walls made of gold and emeralds,Guarded by a huge diamond dome caressing the PalaceThat Palace belonged to me,But I was not the decider of fate of anythingbeyond the colour of my walls and the the diamonds on my vaseI first wore a hijabWhen I got my first periodsI still remember going for hijab shoppingI was barely 14But ripe enough to get marriedI shuffled through different piecesWith no colour optionsBut only blackAnd not many material options to choose fromI picked one,ReluctantlySo would have been my mother and her motherI entered the shopas a young girlBut returned as a womanWith curious gaze of testosteroneTrying to get a glimpse of ‘the woman behind the veil’Everywhere I wentI stumbled i wondered i fellBut it all never fell in placeMy sister says her best friend was killedLoving an American was her sinStones rest pelted on her bodyWas it an aversion to the dark-darker-darkest SaudiI still lay awake in my bedNothing is too muchFor my headNothing is too muchFor my head. ~T
