The irony of the Dolce & Gabbana campaign trying to make hijabs and abayas into a fashion trend is that these items are not used for stylistic purposes when it comes to Muslim women. In this country, many Muslim women are persecuted for wearing hijabs, as many claim it makes them become more of a target to bias and prejudices. While in the Middle East, women are persecuted if they do not wear their hijabs, being that it can actually be against the law. The purpose of these clothing pieces are to cover up women when they are out in public for the sake of the men. To make this into a fashion trend is a bit more misappropriated than anything.
