The Inspiration

Modest fashion Birger advert

I know this campaign is quite old but looking through old magazines reminded me how much I loved it. It’s such a strong image but the quirky details make it really special. So I decided to give it the hijabi sketchbook treatment. I didn’t really have to do much, just the long sleeves and headscarf. But it makes all the difference.

I love the minimalism of the sketch. But what I do not love at all is the pants the model wears. I find this kind of apparel absolutely unsexy.

the trousers are my favourite bit of the sketch! they add a unique twist to the outfit.

Love the sketch but do not love the pants. They sort of remind me of a baby trousers, large so they could fit in the diaper. But that’s just me. I guess on the right person those could look cool.
