Shape & Size: A classic Square cut (100cm x 100cm). This specific dimensions are favored for their crisp, clean lines and ease of styling.
Fabric: Premium Chiffon, specifically chosen for its ability to hold a perfect “point” at the forehead while remaining light and breathable.
Style It Your Way: Perfect for the traditional Bawal fold or the sophisticated Turkish Esarp style. Its symmetrical shape makes it effortless to style for both formal occasions and daily wear.
Intercultural Unity: This piece is dedicated to the beautiful intercultural families within our Ummah—such as the unions between Māori and Southeast Asian or Turkish Muslims. It is a symbol of two worlds becoming one.
We celebrate the art of light and color. Please be aware that the hue of your hijab may shift beautifully depending on the time of day, your surrounding environment, or the outfit you pair it with. While we use professional and AI-enhanced imagery to showcase our designs, slight variations in color may occur due to studio lighting and screen settings.
To preserve the vibrancy of the cultural prints and the integrity of the delicate fabric, hand wash is preferred. Please handle with care to ensure your piece remains a timeless part of your wardrobe.
The Koru is a powerful Māori symbol representing new life, growth, strength, and peace. It signifies new beginnings, positive change, and hope for the future. Whether you are a Māori Muslim born into the faith, a revert starting a new chapter, or a non-Muslim who connects deeply with the art, this symbol holds layered significance:
A New Beginning: Representing a transformative chapter in life, offering personal or spiritual growth and a fresh sense of purpose.
Strength and Resilience: Embodying the strength required to navigate life’s changes while maintaining a deep, respectful connection to Māori heritage.
Hope and Peace: Reflecting the tranquility and fulfillment found in one’s journey, reinforcing positive change and hope for what lies ahead.
In essence, this square hijab is a reminder that no matter where you are in the world – from the shores of Aotearoa to the streets of Kuala Lumpur—we are all connected through the shared journey of identity, growth, and faith.
