I think all this brand need to learn from Uniqlo Hana Tajima Collection in order to cater to modest fashion. Uniqlo did a wonderful collection for it.
The problem is, they dont wanna let us being modest ....all over are shameless designers which dont respect our modesty😐
FalconDiaries interesting...I don't cover my head but I like being covered ...personal choice...but this is a great video to start a convo about this
I personally have been very disappointed with the Hana Tajima Collections, I've gone on to give away most of the clothes I've gotten from her collections. Most of the tops are see through and have awkward necklines, the dresses sit strangely, the trousers look grandma-y. The prices are good but the same issue as H&M remains in the sense that you still have to wear long sleeve tops underneath, etc
I wish H&M would hire Dina to design their modest clothing, that would help us all out
Yes! I got one shirt from the collection and I love it so much
Absolutely love this and everything you said!! Exactly what i was thinking 👌🏻💛
Hush Shush And?! It’s not about the number of anything i left a comment because i liked the video. What now I’m not even allowed to comment unless everyone approves?!
You should delete this comment loool, barely any upvotes for a 200k+ RU-clipr 😬
H&M has always been "modest" so long as you put a long shirt under or whatever. I mean, I grew up in a religious Jewish community and we all shopped there because the stuff was not too pricey and with some thought could be made modest for Jewish standards. I get that other cultures might have more of a challenge, but this kinda strikes me as weird because they are making modesty an "ethnic" thing when it really doesn't have to be.
Yeah, I definitely can see what you mean, Hannah. Seems like they should have done more homework of what people actually want out of modesty instead of just jumping to conclusions.
Khalidah Kamal yep
Chana Weinstein yeah it’s definitely not an ethnic thing I think that’s one of the problems, I think it also has to do with the fact that there have not really been in the Western/Caucasian women on RU-clip who dress modestly so people‘s understanding of it is usually always in correlation with Middle Eastern/Asian culture some people are just going with what they know from what I’ve seen
Chana Weinstein, true that. By I honestly stopped going in h&m since that hoody incidence.
Nowadays, I just go to Costco. It may sound dorky but Costco got good clothes.
I soo agree with dina! Why bother selling ethnic dresses when i can get them half price in my own community?
H&M needs to learn from Uniqlo! It’s a Japanese clothing line and about 2-3 years ago, they collaborated with a muslim british-japanese designer to create a line of modest clothings! It’s really good!! They even have the essentials such as inner headscarf, scarf more more! The collection is chic and goes in line with the company’s market! Check it out!
I love their inner headscarf
Exactly. Just clothes you would find in the store regularly, except longer sleeves, higher neckline, full length, etc.
Modest clothing doesn't have to involve 'ethnic' or 'foreign' influence.
But then isn’t there a difference in concept of modesty between different cultures ? For a western person a half sleeve dress that ends at the knee is still modest but if they have to make modest clothes for a Muslim they have to make clothes that cover the legs fully and the arms and the neck . It does become ethnic and religious . So either wear all clothes or atleast appreacite the effort they have made
Tulip Purple I don’t mean to sound rude, I’m just asking because I’m confused... If we don’t want it to include ethnic clothes (which I totally agree with) that means we want it to include western clothes right but accommodated to our needs. So obviously they’re going to have longer sleeves, higher neckline and full length. I actually don’t mind that because I really like the things in store but get annoyed when the sleeves are short. Can somebody please explain?
Ty for counting in all of us non muslim modest dressers. I dress modestly because thats how I am. Its a personal choice. But i dont want to have to wear 3 or 4 layers in summer so that I dont show off bits i dont want showing. Its bloody hot!
Laura's Life FINAAAAALLLYYYY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS ME 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻UR SO DAMN RIGHT
Dina:
"We're not asking brands to sell us what our cultures, around the world, have already invented..." Lol
"Put some effort into it and do it properly... please, brands..."
"Contact someone who's in the field. Contact peole who dress by these modest guidelines and actually ask for help."
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That makes perfect BUSINESS sense.
As a non Muslim who dresses modestly, its so annoying when I see a 'modest' collection and it's Arab and Pakistani/India style clothing. I just want a dress that covers my chest, shoulders and knees, I don't want to wear a kaftan 😂
LMAO!!!
Exactly
Amy Connell yeah exactly, I think that this causes a lot of issues especially identity related issues for western Muslim women, you will find a lot of ladies and they literally start wearing ethnic clothing and all of this which is fine sometimes for a statement look but it goes way further than that, it also leads to a lot of confusion because then people assume that you are from that particular culture like if you’re wearing a particular thing I’ll get people coming up and asking me, oh are you Pakistani? Which all of that is totally fine but I just think that over all it perpetuates issues overtime if you’re having to dress like that on a daily basis
Then if you wear it you get accused of cultural appropriation 🙄
It’s actually shocking how it’s 2018 and huge high street brands are STILL getting it so wrong when it comes to modest fashion 🤦🏽♀️ like you continuously said there are SOOOO many modest bloggers they should have worked with smh. Not buying any of this traditional clothing nonsense, I’d rather buy better, cuter clothes from Pakistan tysm xoxoxo
It would be awesome if u launch your own modest fashion line... making it actually ‘modest’, affordable and yet stylish!
Dinas lazy
Rabia Khan if Dina did release more items, they wouldnt necessarily cost less than £20, simply because labour isn’t cheap. Primark, H&M and these “affordable” retailers only sell such cheap clothes because they produce and buy them in bulk, using super cheap Labour, thus making more profits despite selling most items of clothing for £10-£30. nevertheless Dinas clothing line would BE AMAZING 👌
She did, "Dina Torkia"! :)
You’re great! I’m not a modest dresser -per-say - but i too HATE when the lining doesn’t go to the bottom of a dress!!
I’m Catholic and wear a headscarf and (mostly) dress modestly. I hate how these brands try to say they are being inclusive BUT THE CLOTHES ARE JUST AS BAD AS THE REGULAR LINES! Don’t call it a modest line if your going to show just as much as “regular” clothing🙄🙄🙄
maybe you should express your opinion more respectful
alaynamiranda samesy
I love everything you said!!! And I’m so glad you were honest. I agree so much. I’m a Christian and I’m a modest dresser, I dont think it should even be ‘religion’ specific. Because it’s not only Muslims that are modest dressers. So it’s still not inclusive either way. It’s literally so half assed either way.
Nellah Grace oh my god!! I follow u!! And found u here too! I am so inspired buy u!
Nellah Grace I'm not trying to be judgey, but you come off as dressing very mainstream, not modest.
No hate, but I have to agree here. Just skimming through your channel, Nellah Grace, you don't dress modest.
Noelle Irina what have you or anyone else gained by this observation? what is your goal here?
Molly Anne Carson We have the right to point out facts.
I am not a modest fashion dresser by any means, but the see throughness of things drives me insane! If you're selling a casual top, I don't want to have to spend hours trying to find a bra that won't show or have to remember to wear the right color of underwear that won't show, or wear a tank top underneath! The point of having clothes is to cover your body. Having to wear another clothing underneath your clothing defeats the main purpose of clothing!
I get having to do some underwear finangling with fancy dresses and special occasion stuff but a t-shirt or spring dress shouldn't require so much frickin work.
They just wan't to make the clothing out of the cheapest materials possible. Ugh.
Exactly Amy! I kinda feel tricked. I remember getting my hopes up when I heard about it for the first time and being disappointed the more I looked into it. Glad I'm not the only one!
maybe you should express your opinion more respectful
My husband is always teasing me about my 'shirts on shirts on shirts' but I have to do it for modesty! Everything made for women is super thin, shifts around the body, and shows too much cleavage (I'm big busted). I feel naked if I don't have a wide strapped tank top underneath almost everything I wear.
BrItZeeEee nah they aren't it's mostly just womens clothes my boyfriends white tshirts dont show anything under neath because the material is thicker at this point I just buy mens tshirts and tanks in a smaller size
Wtf ?
This is the first vid I've seen from your channel and I LOVE you already. 1) thank you for talking about modest fashion as a whole! I'm Jewish, and just trying to decide if I should take this leap, but have wanted to talk to/hear from Muslim women (because you all are SO PRETTY and SO FASHIONABLE I love it), so thank you for making me feel welcome
If any brands out there is reading this comment; it’s very simple. We Muslim women want as many options and we get excited about colours as much as other women. What we want is for clothing items not to be see through, sleeveless or with random holes in the thighs or cleavage area. We don’t have an aversion to bright colours and no, we don’t want shapeless potato sacks. We also need blouses that are regular sized and not touching our knees for trousers or skirts. It doesn’t always have to cover our hips. We will take care of that on our own. Thank you very much. Here is an idea; hire modern Muslim women to design these cloths rather than selling us clothing that people in villages of random Muslim countries wear. As Dina says, we can get that stuff for a lot cheaper from those countries but we don’t live there so we need the modern touch of something that is worth our money.
Pakistani clothes are amazing from casual to classy formals.The fabric quality is excellent too as the weather in Pakistan,summers are hot ,but still women dress smartly and modestly...No holes etc,like I said all kind
of fabrics is available in Pakistan....for all kind of weather.
eff it, i'm not even religious and even I want clothes to not " be see through, sleeveless or with random holes in the thighs or cleavage area.". like i'd choose a random cute top from the rack, get it on, and discover my bra slightly shows through and i get mad because these companies can't be arsed to make tops that aren't from thin rag material.
I agree with you on the most part but I do have to say that I'm not entirely hating on H&M for this. I'm glad that modesty is being brought to the high street because I don't have access to many 'cultural/religious' stores (I don't know how else to put that) and buying modest pieces online can be expensive and they ship from far away. So although I'm not a huge fan of the H&M collection, I'm hopeful for their future modest collections and the fact that this will drive other high street stores to do the same.
Amal S l
Exactly!! This is literally what i try to say!! If i really wanted the “modest” clothes they sre marketing i could get them from my home country but the whole point is western “modern” clothes because we want to dress like normal 😂😂 finally somebody acctually understands the struggle
Thank you Dina for saying that dressing modestly doesn't always mean wearing a headscarf. It is not something that is put out there enough !
So true. I don't believe in wearing a head covering, but I also don't dress to be alluring. Hubby teases me about it, but I have to do what is true for me. We all have our journey.
Celia B
Thanks Ceia B that is so true.
This video is SO insightful, like how do you expect us to be happy about inclusiveness when we should be included anyways? The modest fashion market has so much potential to become mainstream and be available on the high street BUT no one is willing to actually try 😂🤷🏽♀️
This is a great video. Really interesting to hear your personal perspective. I’m not a solely modest dresser but as I get older I want to dress in a way that makes me feel comfortable. I’m often frustrated by excessive cropping of tops, short skirts etc. I didn’t appreciate how difficult it must be when you’re following a specific standard of dress but this video is spot on. Should be easier than this to create fashion for a huge segment of the market, and do it in a cool and modern way that doesn’t make passing reference to culture/ethnicity that isn’t required/desired. And shouldn’t be more expensive! 🤦♀️ x
Whenever big brands launch modest fashion related stuff, I just stay clear because I know the ‘modest’ element will be missed. Dina you should definitely launch your own line xxo
10 years?! Congratulations!
Every single thing you said here is what I have been saying forever. Fantastic review as always
I completely agree with your opinion. but I think Zara is actually doing quite a good job with making regular high street clothing more modest.
huh when?
Groupie I dont understand why Dina put air quotes around “accidental” about h&m?
Groupie I love Zara
Groupie I agree that’s why I mostly shop there
Nah F Zara did you even hear how they treated an Asian customer from
Calgary. They beat him up because he simply told them they miscalculated their order.
Totally agree with what you’re saying Dina. I’ve been feeling the same way about all these brands jumping on the ‘modest clothing’ bandwagon and then absolutely decking it.
I think you are totally on point with everything you have said. It is absolutely ridiculous how these stores basically patronise us with these "modest" collections just before Eid and try to rip us off for it. Most pieces are just awful. Even House of Fraser brought out abayas and charged the earth for them. I am a white British revert and on a daily basis I do wear abayas. But for Eid I like to switch it up a bit. You have sites like Inayah who do a modest take but again £70 for a shirt dress isn't the answer. I just look for a nice decent maxi dress n accessorise it with a cardi/blazer or wrap to make it modest if it can't be altered. It's just best we work with what's out there and do it our way til someone gets it right.
This needs to go viral ASAP brands needs to watch this. Yet again another great video with Dina speaking what’s on our minds 👌🏼👌🏼💪🏽
Happy Ramadan! & THANK YOU Dina for putting your opinion out there- I feel the same way and it’s so good to know someone else does too :)
I'm glad she references non-muslim modest dressers too. Because I am realizing that there are non-muslim women who want to dress more modest too. Which for me, is my way of protesting society and these ratchet fabric pieces strung together and called clothes.
Christians (I amone) want to be modest too.
Extpensive clothes are actually more ethical because it's less likely that the company uses child labor.
Walmart, Forever 21, Gap, *H&M,* etc, all use child labor 😞
Khalida Kamal it's allright
ziemniaczki-pire OH SORRY You're right. Ok. My mistake. I'm just getting way too defensive here. And for what? Lol
Khalidad Kamal what? I wrote I DON'T THINK you're shaming anyone, which means I think you're not shaming anyone. It was meant as a response to what mychemicalclifford wrote.
thataprilgirl well that's me. That's why I said it.
That little rant at the beginning was so spot on. 👏👏 I kinda wanna send it to every single brand that sells 'modest' clothing
*DAMNN DINAAA* ❤️
I am so glad you have made this video! I really hope brands like these see this video and get the point!
Everything you said in this video is so so true!!! I hope brands would see this and actually realise! I think the collection is ridiculous as our cultural clothes which are widely available are cheaper soo much nicer!!
I just love how opinionated you both are! And it's not ignorant and plucked out of the sky. You're grounded, level headed and make educated points!
i wish a high street shop would collaborate with dina to introduce a modest line, she makes everything look amazing x
Honestly! I’m so glad I came across this video bc I’m not religious BUT I don’t like to expose as much body as the clothes are designed today so your idea of making their styles that they already create and do a modest version is absolutely freaken brilliant!!!! If this concept can make it into store I would be insanely happy! I would actually pray for that to happen! Lol 🙏
You are always so eloquent and so beautiful! I am the absolute opposite of a modest dresser- as soon as te sun comes out I am as bare as is legally allowed (!), but I love your channel x
Thank you!!! I am a secular mum and I just don’t like my underwear showing, my crotch hanging out or my tits in full view! I like practical and yes, modest clothes for most scenarios and the amount of badly cut, see through, over priced clothes out there is so frustrating! Fantastic video 🙌👏
I LOVE THIS! ALL YOU'VE ADDRESSED IS NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH 💙💙💙
I agree 100% with everything you said about how the brands that release ‘modest’ lines never actually give us things that we need and things that are different from what we already get. I think it is so frustrating that everyone always disregards modest dressing. I really hope one of the brand representatives end up watching this video. Love you! ♥️
LOVE YOUR OPINIONS DINA! YOUR WORK AND COURAGE IS SO INSPIRING! and you are so funny
I found you randomly but I'm already in love! I love your personality and how opinionated you are. ❤
I love the level of honesty and constructive criticism that will actually help the brands a ton!!
Aha Dina you never fail to entertain me! I LOOOVEE your honesty! 🙌
Preach girl preach! Dina is so honest and I love it!
This is a great review! I can't believe they didn't consult any modest wearing vloggers/bloggers. It's also a shame they aren't very creative with it. Just because I want to dress modestly doesn't mean I want average clothing. It's a good step, but it would have been better if they at least asked some of the people in the industry like you mentioned!
Have to agree with Dina. It's true when clothing line attempt to be modest they just give us the traditional muslim dress. What I would want when looking for modest clothes is long sleeve tops not tight or cropped cause everything is cropped these days with either a cute logo or simple design. It's espescially really hard to shop during the summer whereas the winter you can literally wear an oversized sweater and it's fine. However during summer you want something light yet covering and nice and affordable. I guess H and M really missed the mark😒
Dina your so talented and know what the target market want you could so make a capsule collection every season and i could 100% guarantee it would sell out. you should go for it girl!!!
Your opinion on this issue is everything 👏🏽👏🏽, always struggling to find modest pieces
Dina should start her own modest clothing line 🙃❤️
Safah Adrees she is looking for it...
If I could love this video a thousand times, I would! Thank you for voicing what I have been thinking forever!
I love Dina's honesty so much. It's so refreshing honestly, she's so real. She was spitting straight facts about what annoys her with brands and their modest collections. You better preach it sis.
Hey Dina, enjoy watching your stuff x
I worked in the buying side of large mail order company . H&M Eid collection was prob a marketing idea to get people looking through all the range , making it tricky to find stuff just makes the browser look at stuff and buy stuff they usually wouldn't , it worked on you cuz u like 3 things and your not even sure if they were part of range. I think that was the plan and plus no major extra cost to the whole concept 🤗. Do your own line Dina and don't rip us all off with the prices ❤️❤️
This whole video was REAL !! Yas Dina ❤️ your always speaking the truth !
I‘m actually fuming bc of these see through shirts!! When there‘s 30 degrees outside i don‘t want to wear an extra top under this freaking top, do these things even get tested on real people before they‘re mass produced???
Terry
Im fuming too. Cheap-azz clothes industry. They make the cheapest cuts and fabric hoping to capitalize off people trying to be trendy I guess.
On point! I totally agree with you about making some of their clothes more inclusive! 100%
Dina, Ramadan Kareem! Yo! You hit ALL the nails on the head. This video was every thought I've had about clothes. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video Dina! I agree with every word you said ✨🙏🏼💕
I couldn’t agree with you more! You hit the nail on the head in this video! Hope somehow someone in their HQ’s comes across this!
Nothing makes me more angry than see through clothing, lining that ends half way and lining that does not do the job! And this is coming from a non-hijabi so God knows how frustrating would it be for those who are
Petition for Dina to create her own modest line. I realised me and her have same tastes as to modesty. All those other hijabi youtubers putting on facade as to these clothing lines and shops are "modest". Please dina release a clothing line!!!
Kickstarter or indiegogo could help! :D
Loveroon awwww dang. I hope so too!
Moe XD she did release a line few years ago. It was absolutely beautiful and I really wanted to buy it but it was out of budget range. One time I commented how expensive they were on her video and she replied saying something along the lines of how she doesn’t have the resources to mass produce and achieve low prices like brands such as H&M. So ideally these high end brands should do would Dina is saying and just alter the already existing clothes to make them modest. I hope they listen!!!!
I really condone her for being inclusive to all modesty. I was raised traditional Eastern Orthodox and my mom had me wearing a head scarf during Lenten periods and dress modest (arms, legs wrists and ankles covered, no see through cross on) on Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays and Sundays. No makeup and hair pinned up. And its nice to listen to someone who understand bc I have found more understanding from Muslim and Jewish woman because the Orthodox Community is very progressive. And I’m from a Spartan and Assyrian family and where very traditional. Great video Dina!
Omg yesssssss thank you for sharing your thoughts about this collection I 100% AGREE!!
I am LIVING for this look right now! Babe you look AMAZING 😍
Please please please just return these clothes, take your money elsewhere. Can't believe they bumped you like that 😯 The cheek of them 🙄
Good on you for having an opinion, even if you lose business from it at least you're staying true to your views 👏🏾
Wow! I agree with what Dina is saying 100% !!! I’ve been saying this too! We feel so happy to be included but it’s a scam still. LOL
everything you discussed on this video is so relevant to us modest fashion wearers, i’m glad to see someone talking about it
DINA, COME THROUGH WITH YOUR OWN MODEST FASHION LINE!
I 100% agree with everything you said. You put it perfectly. I hope people take note! It’s refreshing someone can just say it how it is. This collection is sooooo disappointing. I still find it so so hard to find modest stylish clothing x
I love your honesty, Dinaaaa !!!! ❤
H&M should’ve collaborated with you to design their modest clothing.
Arch & Mina, what is the hating on Dina? Don't hate her because she is confident.
Kate A Agreed. Dina is very fashionable, current, and shows how modesty doesn't have to meant drab. #h&m #modesty
Unicornio Histérico OMGs what a horrific thing to say. And who are you to say what's normal. To hijabis that normal. Like the people of the west think it's normal to wear nothing. How dare you. I pray you wise up and stop being so hateful.
Agree
Kate A the point is to not support H&M and other fast fashion brands and to buy clothes from the actual people who make them. I think you missed the point of the video.
I'm not Muslim but I couldn't agree more!!! Love your channel xx
YAAAAASSS DINA!!!!
Totally agreeing with your arguments and opinions in this vid 💯🙌
LOOOOOVVVVVEEEEE 👌
I love this as modest fashion covers all religions I would think?! As a Christian, I agree with you wholeheartedly and thank you for bringing this to the table of discussion.
I loveeeee your input on this! i don't usually buy stuff from HNM because it's so see through and difficult for me to wear, usually. I totally prefer UNIQLO much better
I hope this goes viral because brands need to know the perspective from the light of a modest fashion blogger.
I wish H&M sees this and collabs with you. This is everything.
You tell 'em girl!! I don't wear a hijab but I like to wear modest clothes that cover certain parts of my body and I feel like this collection really did nothing.
I would LOVEEEE it if Dina worked with a high street brand and had her modest clothing line in all stores 😭😭😍😍
What I hate is that modest does not mean " look middle eastern" I'm Scandinavian/English but my religion( Mormon) requires modesty. I think that many of the clothes from the middle east are sooooo pretty and the workmanship is mind blowing . But I don't like to dress in those styles, they don't suit me . But I wish that the 2 didn't always go hand in hand. One can wear western clothes that cover up the bits you need covered. But it can be very hard to do .
00101 111001 H&M itself is the biggest fast fashion
I’m a Mormon too!!
Sarah Da those brands are fast fashion. Look it up they are awful for humanity and the environment. Do not support them!
Yes! I am Christian, but I choose to dress modestly because of religious reasons and because it’s what I feel comfortable in. I don’t feel comfortable wearing shorts that are so short that my buttcheek pops out when I bend over. I don’t feel comfortable wearing strapless or spaghetti strap shirts or dresses. And everyone just tells me to love yourself and don’t care about what other people think. But that’s not the answer! I already love myself and don’t care what other people think! I just want trendy fashion pieces that are going to cover what I want covered.
Kori Emerson I agree I’m Roman Catholic and I choose to dress modest, but I still want to ‘fit in’ with my peers.
Like the jumper she’s wearing in this video is so cute and trendy but still modest.
U just said everything that i haven't been able to put in words for yeaarrssss! You go girl!
So what I gathered from this was that you need to design your own modest fashion line because it would be AMAZING!
I love your enthusiasm! I’m an American wasp, but I still like pseudo modest dressing just for my own comfort. I struggle to find dresses with sleeves.
You go girl! I totally get you 🙌🏻
even as a “not modest dresser” h&m’s see-through problem is real 🙄 i’m supposed to wear those blouses to work? pff okay. i cant believe things are still so thin in their modestly line. so dumb
I love how real you are and touching on what H and M done with the black boy. You are the realist youtuber in my opinion ! Love all your videos !! ❤️❤️
I totally agree with your thought about brands coming up with modest fashion line!!
There are Jewish and Christian modest dresses too. I don’t know why brands don’t get it. I’m so tired of see through and tight clothing. I personally like to dress a bit more modestly and I end up shopping in thrift stores most of the time. Clothes that are at least 10 years old are made so much better
As an American revert, I would feel so weird about wearing cultural pieces that are not part of my culture. Not because I don't like them but because it would feel like appropriation. I just want modest options in what I would normally wear. Shirts that aren't see through, etc. Thanks for the vid, Dina! The H&M site for the US is the same, no mention of the collection.
please feel free to wear traditional style clothes! I know that you’re intent isn’t to make fun of us, but because you think our clothes are pretty, so I support that 100%! (truthfully I wish H&M had this sort of stuff sooner, because it can be difficult to track down and get actual pieces I want directly from my parents’ country, so this makes everything so much easier!)
The US site does now show the collection, in other news. www.hm.com/us/products/ladies/ltdcollection
ROCKYZ ROCKYX the best religion is no religion
Dina, if im totally honest with you, you might as well, design your own MODEST BRAND....honesty it would BE SOOO GOOD!!!!!!☺
I'm happy to hear that its not just me that found this 'collection' lacking. I'm in the states and when I went online to look at this collection I didn't see anything that stood out and that I found worth buying. Secondly it took forever to find the 'modest fashion' collection on the HM site! Kinda frustrating.. Thanks Dina, for biting the bullet and buying some items and reviewing them to let us know how they wear and feel!
Dina, I have so much respect for you speaking honestly and not compromising your integrity.
She’s funny, witty, well spoken, insightful and gorgeous. Content is 💯. I think I’ll SUBSCRIBE! 😄
SO TRUE!!!!! It's obnoxious to try and find modest clothes. I don't think we're asking much. I loved this video!
I hope H&M watches this. You shed light on such obvious faults that they have missed.
I swear Dina's "Hi guys" is so uplifting makes my heart so happy
PREACH BABY ✨it looked like no modest dressers set eyes on that collection before it was approved. It honestly looked like they thought "eh that's them Asians right? With the *insert trope here* and that? We'll do that then. And charge extra."
I love that you mentioned other modest dressers. I’m LDS and I have ALL the same problems you have trying to dress modest. Especially the maxi skirt and the lining only being long enough to cover your cookie!!! Or see thru fabric! Preach Dina! 🙌🏽 love you!
When brands comes out with "modest collection" the only input they should aske, is from you DINA, you would be completely honest and straight forward. Then they would get valuable advice for sure!😊
i myself am not a modest dresser, so this was really interesting for me to hear. so thanks for informinging me!❤
SO TRUE!! bring us some fashion that we havent already created!
My job requires me to dress modestly to be culturally sensitive towards the communities I travel to and interact with and I find it so difficult to find clothing that suits my needs! I totally understand your complaints. Adding to your points about items such as the caftan being already available to you (at a better quality!) It also means that there are so many people like myself looking for modest items who can't purchase those pieces because then we would be appropriating culture! If they could change what they already sell so that skirts are longer, items aren't unnecessarily see through and tight and provide better arm coverage that would be great! I would love to dress modestly in everyday life but currently I reserve most of my modest items only for work because they make me feel frumpy!
