Modest fashion has been steadily gaining more global recognition over the past decade, with longer hemlines spotted on the runway. It鈥檚 now estimated to be worth around $300 billion.

But modest fashion isn鈥檛 just religious coverings, loose dresses, or even your grandmother鈥檚 cardigan. At Modest Fashion Week in Istanbul there was everything from faux fur, to gold silk and platform heels. Megan Lawton, a 蜜芽传媒 reporter in Toronto, has been looking into how modest fashion has shifted outside the leading markets in Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia to the US and Australia. She鈥檚 spoken to the founders of Reflective - an online marketplace for modest clothes.

We also hear from Nawal Sari, a Muslim model and content creator in Australia, about how the modest-friendly options have shifted over the years - and how authentic some marketing of the clothing is.
