New Summer Style Idea - Kimono Sleeve Maxi Dresses!

Paisley Print Kimono Sleeve Maxi Dress on Ebay

Black large print paisley kimono sleeve maxi dress

Abstract print kimono sleeve maxi dress

I love these because they offer more coverage than the traditional strappy (or strapless) style maxi dress. All these styles were found on Ebay, a Sister's best friend for great fashion finds. Ebay rocks. Happy shopping! :)

Hijabistyle Shopper Tip: When searching Ebay, narrow down the results by using the key words: "maxi dress kimono"

If you just search "maxi dress", you're gonna end of with about 7,000 listings.

* a nice kimono sleeve maxi dress isnt very expensive at all. Expect to pay around $35.00 - $45.00 with shipping. A pretty sweet deal. :)

Cover with Faith, Style and Modesty!

sooooooooo cute!. i kept shying away from the maxi dresses because of the straps! I just thought the whole straps over the body top thing was a bit much. This a an awesome alternative!!! thanks so much.

These dresses are wonderful. I actually own one from ebay and its soooo comfortable. A long sleeved shirt looks great under these dresses almost like it was meant to have long sleeves unlike the strappy maxis that are so popular. You can wear them almost all year round and are so fashionable.

We do our best to *asterisk* styles that do not pass the “demure test” but it is your responsibility to ensure that what you wear meets the conditions for hijab in public. We are just posting ideas that we find beautiful or interesting. Allah(swt) knows best.

Conditions for Women's Hijab

Everything but the hands and face should be covered - including your feet :)
Don't forget to cover your hair and bustline!
Clothing should be wide and loose so as to obscure your figure. This is most easily accomplished by wearing something OVER your regular clothing.
Clothing must not be see-thru.
Clothing must not attract attention - i.e. avoid loud colors, bold designs, sparkles etc...
Clothing shouldnt be that which only men traditionally wear...enjoy being a woman!
Avoid make-up and noisy, visible jewelry - you're pretty enough...don't make it harder for people! :)
No perfume - I'm sure you already smell great!
Clothing should not resemble solely that which non-Muslims wear. - Sorry, no Daisy Dukes in public!
Hijab isnt just a dress code, its a mindset! Your beauty isnt only skin deep! Be modest in your behavior as well. Remember this isnt just a protection for you as a person, this is an act of worship. :)
