ITALIAN label Dolce & Gabbana has unveiled its new collection of hijabs and abayas catering to Muslim women for the first time.
Stefano Gabbana, one half of the pair behind the big-name fashion house, debuted the new line on Instagram.
The luxury range, which can be viewed in full on Style.com/Arabia, comes in soft neutrals like black and beige made from lightweight fabrics.
Some pieces also feature intricate floral and citrus lace detail, in a nod to the designer’s spring 2016 collection.
