The Japanese retailer Uniqlo are launching a range of hijabs and modest clothing for women in the UK for the first time this week

The range includes the Baju Kurung, a two piece skirt and long top, which can be styled either as a tunic over a pair of trousers or situs slot online as a dress by itself

It also features long dresses, high neck tops, head bands and traditional wear such as hijabs.

Hana converted to Islam at 17 but rather than being specifically marketed to Muslim women, the range has being tailored to 'the needs of women who value modest styles', according to Uniqlo.

'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

Hana's previous ranges of hijabs, blouses and dresses for Uniqlo, were sold online and in Singapore outlets last year but this is the first time her range has been made available in the UK

And Monique Lhuillier has designed a range of caftans for the luxury online retailer Moda Operandi.

Online designer clothing retailer Net-a-Porter provides a 'Ramadan Edit'.

On the high street, while Zara and Mango have also offered specially themed collections during the holy month.

Late last year H&M featured their first ever hijab-wearing model in an ad campaign - Mariah Idrissi.

THE MARKET FOR MODEST FASHION 

A report by Thomson Reuters found that Muslims spent $266 billion (£187 billion) on clothing and footwear in 2013.

The launch makes UNIQLO the first high street brand to launch a full range of modest fashion and hijabs in the UK.
