SOPHIA`s unique talent and passionate disposition has fuelled her rise as a couturier for one of the most fastest recognized Islamic fashion labels, IMAAN COLLECTIONS.
Sophia set up her online business in MARCH 2006 after completing the New entrepreneur scholarship programme with skills for enterprise. Sophia`s business was recognised by the handbag.com awards in 2005 when she was selected as one of the 4 finalists in “outstanding contributions to the community” category out of hundreds of applicants who had applied from all over the U.K
She has taken on the position with her trademark confidence and conviction, and has brought a powerful point-of-view to the headlines with the likes of BBC RADIO LEICS and their website featuring the collection, local papers and the likes of international papers too “Herald Tribune” (amercian newspaper) and magazines, “69.247.com” and ”emel”. IMAAN COLLECTIONS have also staged Charity fashion show events.
In Just under 2 years Imaan collections have caused topics of discussion and debates of how “Islamic fashion” is interpreted.
By reinterpreting elements from the western designer fashions and the rich cultural and Islamic heritage of her background, Sophia has infused her designs with pure indulgence in fabrics and textures with a twist of modern appeal.
This has attracted and generated a complete new deprived segment of the market, and her designs are now embraced by young students to business professionals from all over the world- all of these women all have one thing in mind…MODESTY!
Sophia approaches her life as passionately as she does work. Her humour, intelligence and fine-tuned aesthetic instincts shine through all of her designs.

THE TROUSERS COME WITH THE JILBAB, KAFTAN, ABAYA AS PART OF A SET- THEY CANNOT BE PURCHASED SEPERATELY. WE CANNOT MIX AND MATCH THE TROUSER SIZES WITH THE JILBABS, KAFTANS, ABAYAS-
All the trousers come with elasticated back which gives another extra 3"-4" for comfort. There is a side zip fastening.
The above sizing is for guidance purpose only- some styles will differ slightly in size and length due to fabric textures and styles - depending on the cut and style of the design there will be slight variations-
CONFUSED ABOUT LENGTHS?
Take three women with different heights and dress them in the same length jilbab,kaftan or abaya- the result is three very different looks!
So we are offering 2 choice in lengths- 54" and 56"- these 2 lengths- are suited for women from 5ft to 5ft8"- depending on what look you want to desire- as the jilbab,abaya,kaftan comes mostly with the trousers you dont need to worry about the jilbab,abaya,kaftan not being full length-as the trouser is matched and therefore is covering the legs.
There is also a 1.5" hemline on most of the jilbabs, kaftans, abayas - if you needed to extend the length a little then there is the possibility of doing so-
Also if you need to shorten the jilbabs, kaftans, abayas-you could very easily take the length up too.
However this will not apply to jilbab coats which have the lining attached.
