By this point, you've already read up about the [ SOUK ] and [ FASHION SHOWS ]. Next is onto the fun part. The beauty of attending an event like this, is not only to experience the array of clothing available to see and purchase, but to mingle with people.
As with any sort of event, you get people who travel from far and wide to attend. I was one of the furthest within the UK. Travelling to London from Nottingham. However, a few girls flew in for the weekend to come along. Girls from YouTube came.... You may recognise some of the faces below.

It was an absolute pleasure meeting and talking to so many people. And bumping into an old friend from my hometown, which was totally unexpected. Turns out she now has a shop, so check it out [here].

Overall thoughts?
The only down side for me was the preparation upon the day. The first fashion show was scheduled for noon, however it didn't start until at least 90 minutes later due to technical problems and unprepared models. Unfortunately, but the time the second fashion show had arrived, these issues had not completely vanished. It didn't start on time either but the models were more prepared. It was a shame this happened, because it had a knock on effect onto everything else.
Generally impressed especially by the amount of people present, from designers to attendees. Mashallah, what a turn out! It was great to see some many things accessible for Muslim women under one room.
Thanks for reading and have a good day ◕‿◕
