Modest Fashion Online Discussion‏

Hijab Style: Modest Fashion Online Discussion‏: "Next week there will be a great opportunity to take part in a 24-hour online discussion with the Modest Fashion research project team. (Professor Reina Lewis, Jane Cameron and Dr Emma Tarlo; author of Visibly Muslim).

"The site will go live at 7pm GMT on Wednesday 12th January 2011 and won't close until 7pm GMT on Thursday 13th January 2011. The project team will be staying up late to make sure that everyone has a convenient time to participate wherever they are in the world. To join the discussion simply follow this link and sign in on the day: http://www.fashion.arts.ac.uk/modest-fashion/"

The book Visibly Muslim: Fashion, Politics, Faith by Emma Tarlo [Berg] sounds interesting. Some of my MA students have an interest in this issue, so I'll be pointing them towards this.
