We are soo excited when numbers of designer labels are started to reach-out and promote hijab fashion like Dolce & Gabbana, Uniqlo, H&M and others -- however, not ALL in the fashion industry are excited just like us.
Yves Saint Laurent is raising their well arch-brows about it.
YSL Exec, French businessman Pierre Berge disagrees the entire of it.
He slammed these designers promoting hijab fashion, and accusing fashion houses of participating in the "enslavement of women."
Here's what he said during interview at French radio station Europe 1:
"Creators should have nothing to do with Islamic fashion. Designers are there to make women more beautiful, to give them their freedom, not to collaborate with this dictatorship which imposes this abominable thing by which we hide women and make them live a hidden life. These creators who are taking part in the enslavement of women should ask themselves some questions."
He also accused these fashion houses of simply doing it for the money, later stating that they should, "Renounce the money and have some principles."
Well, we think Monsiuer Berge needs help to enlighten his mind.
Hijab fashion is not only about religion. It is about embracing your choice as a woman to be more modest, and be proud and loving to their culture.
Is covering our women a form of slavery?
We think NOT.
