'The clothing is always for everybody,' Hana told

'I think especially at a time when Muslim women are the focus of sort of more negative press, it's important to have something that tells you about another side of being a Muslim woman,' Hana said.

 Long dresses and headscarves (pictured) are key elements of the new collection, which goes on sale this week

Catering to the Muslim market is a growing focus for luxury designers and high street brands alike
