There had been some debate about Islamic Fashion Festival 2010 which took place recently in Jakarta and said to be too revealing.

The self-declared First Lady of Malaysia, Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak’s wife Rosmah Mansor is being heavily criticized for promoting the recently held Islamic Fashion Festival (IFF), which Muslim groups have said was an insult to Islam and the Prophet.

This event caught people’s attention  especially those from social-networking site Facebook users, where the photo of one of the models wearing a revealing outfit which depicted a reverse image of the Prophet’s name in Arabic across the chest was widely circulated.”

For some people it’s consider too revealing while others aren’t so. And how revealing is for us to consider its’ revealing and how not revealing is not too revealing.

I’ve seen arab women covering their body and only showing a pair of eyes. While here in Malaysia, we wear kurung and kebaya revealing most of our face.

Fashion is style, trend and change. It’s not necessary one need to follow or wear this “revealing” clothes if one’s religion forbid from doing so.
