The Islamic shirts apart from adhering to the ethics of modest clothing which elicits clothing to be of a modest length with no pictorial or facial representation of anything living or dead mandates men, too to exercise subtle colours and with no body exposure and their clothes shouldn’t be made out of silk and other costly fabric. Thus, men too can dabble with the more celebrated Islamic motifs and prints popular in the eastern and Middle Eastern culture and try out renditions in shorter kurta style shirt or tee-shirts with Arabic or Moroccan motifs. The Islamic shirts incorporate themes of cultural and regional stamps with indigenous patch work, prints and embroidery. Moreover sometimes you can see a very good fusion of indo-western ensemble in the form of a cropped Kurta or an overcoat which could double up as a thwab for Friday prayers. There’s also a lot of detailing attached to the sort of collars used in the shirts. Be it a straight collar or a mandarin neck, hooded neck or closed accents with buttons. You could also dish out some tasteful attires endowed with intricate embroidery for those special formal occasions like weddings or Eid or even a Qur’an recitation ceremony...
