Onyx By Aneesa Solomon Part: 2


It has finally arrived, the final images from Onyx by Aneesa Solomon. I did a post some time back about the photoshoot I did for the brand and posted a few behind the scenes pictures which you can view HERE
Onyx by Aneesa Solomon is an abaya range created for the modern, fashion conscious woman. As a Muslim female in this day and age it becomes increasingly difficult to embrace current trends whilst still maintaining an Islamic identity. Thankfully with the latest range of abayas from the Onyx range it is no longer is impossible.

The summer range boasts a kaleidoscope of bright hues with vibrant patterns and sleek silhouettes and has something for all personalities. From flamboyant prints for the extrovert to understated black on black for the more demure self. The beauty of these abayas is in the flow and elegance of the garment with cinched waists and trendy waist belts which can be worn with or without the abaya. Furthermore, each garment comes with a scarf to be worn on the head or how ever else you prefer. Each garment is meticulously crafted with great attention to detail and limited stock per style thus ensuring a unique purchase each time.

As a Young Muslim woman I struggle to maintain my identity but these abayas which look more like dresses, makes it that much easier to dress modestly whilst looking chic. I haven't quite transformed but when I do, Onyx will definitely be my first stop! My favorite from the collection is definitely the black on black lace kimono abaya which fellow blogger Shaheeda (of style by shaheeda) modeled.

The new summer collection is available on the website (www.aneeasolomon.com) and Facebook page (Onyx) for viewing and purchasing.
