Asian Bridal Hijab

                       Asian Bridal Hijab
In recent years some countries in the Middle East, most notably Egypt, have seen a rise in what are usually referred to as 'make-up and veil designers'. They offer the usual make-up services for women, but unlike regular salons, they can also style hijabs for special occasions like weddings. Jailan Atef is one such designer, and below are some of her bridal hijab designs. A lot of women often feel pressured to take their hijab off on their wedding day, so it's good to see that women do have options to keep covered whilst wearing a white wedding dress.

I personally prefer the simpler styles of the bottom two pictures here, though they could do with more neck coverage. I'm not too fond of the idea of swimming in white tulle and organza - we wouldn't want to upstage the cake now, would we?

One reader recently requested ideas for wearing hijab during her wedding in Pakistan. I've had these photos saved for ages now, and they should provide some inspiration. The easiest option when it comes to the headcovering aspect is to wear a plain square or one-piece hijab in a matching colour to the outfit, and pinning the decorative head-piece on top. My favourite of all these has to be the first photo. I love the rich colour and embroidery.
