Other major Western designers have shown hijab-like head coverings on the runway with varying degrees of success.
What’s your face shape?
There are six basic shapes.
They are heart, oval, rectangular, round, square, and diamond-shaped.
Although there’s some overlap, most of us fit primarily into one category over another.
Not sure which one you are?
Grab the kind of soft measuring tape you might find in a sewing kit and measure your face.
Look closely what is the shape of your jawline?
Then you’ll compare the two.
If your face is longer than it is wide, it’s probably an oval.
If the measurements are more or less equal, it could be round.
For example, it’s the rare person who can frame herself in all-black and still feel energized.
Many people look flat and drained or feel low energy in solid black.
One exception is people who are classified as “winters” in seasonal color analysis.
A winter’s features pop when they wear black.
What season are you?
Have you ever had your colors professionally analyzed?
This is just a brief overview.
Three factors that analysts take into account are eye color, hair color, and skin tone.
All hues of skin are on a spectrum of cool to warm.
When working with a color analyst, conduct your session in person for the best results.
Take comfort into account.
Cotton interwoven with silk is a great combination.
It’s still lightweight, but there’s a bit more structure to play with.
Satin is more trouble than it’s worth.
Some synthetic fabrics are more affordable than natural textiles, but check that they’re truly comfortable.
As you already know, you’re always striking a balance between wrapping too loosely or too tightly.
Here are a few guidelines.
Brooches can add sparkle while also keeping your scarf secure.
A good solution is to use rounded, soft accessories and short necklace lengths.
In the same way, borrow the idea of contrasting shapes as you wrap your hijab.
Have fun experimenting with folding, volume, and sparkle to show off your beautiful face.
