ReModest
In the ever-evolving fashion industry, the invitation for a circular approach in the modest wear sector presents a compelling opportunity. Imagine the potential: abayas, veils, and Halal-conscious cosmetics becoming the next trend by 2030. The modest fashion market is projected to reach a staggering $120 billion by then.
Yet, amidst this promising horizon, there's a dark undercurrent—the global mistreatment and oppression of Muslims.
ReModest focuses on creating high-quality, versatile modest fashion pieces designed for circularity. This means the garments are produced sustainably, designed to last, and can be easily repurposed, reused, or recycled.

— Focus on timeless, elegant designs that transcend seasonal trends, ensuring longer use.
3. Repurposing and Recycling Program
— Offer a take-back program where customers can return worn-out garments for recycling or repurposing.
