Cover Girls: Ridge Designer Makes Demure Clothes For Muslim Women
Brooklyn Daily:
It's a modest success. A Bay Ridge woman has turned frustration into inspiration, starting a modest clothing line for Muslim women after struggling to find fashionable threads that still leave a little to the imagination.
The Egyptian-born, Bensonhurst-raised founder of Urban Modesty said she got the idea because her only other options were donning stuffy traditional garb or cobbling together a hodgepodge of Western clothes. "Finding an outfit for any occasion is always a nightmare - my peers, friends, young women, older women, they all had the same problem," said Sherihan Moustafa. "You either dress very traditionally, or you try to put somethin together by layering clothes from five different stores."
