This past Saturday I attended MCC Full-Time School's Muslim Women's Spring Fashion Show & Bazaar in the beautiful north Chicago suburb of Morton Grove. I was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful it was. I congratulate these fellow Halal Mamas on the well-planned, professionally executed and enjoyable event. It was a great opportunity for my daughter and me to experience such a fun, high-energy show in a totally halal atmosphere. The clothes presented on the runway were impressive, displaying a modern take on Muslim fashion from retailers based all over the globe. I was especially taken by the abayas from Aab of the UK - these beautiful dresses exuded elegance as they were very simple yet made with incredibly fine fabric and attention to detail. The bazaar that followed was also fun and quite shop-worthy! I ended up with a nice printed tunic, an Indian Jewelry set and some bangles for my daughter.
