Jilbab

October rainbow challenge - Week 2: Manmade World - Sunday: Purple

Was having trouble finding a purple subject this morning. Popped over to the farmers' market and wandered down the high street, but nothing much doing until I came across the gloriously-named Jilbabs 'R' Us - pic in extras. http://365project.org/boxplayer/extras/2012-10-14 This presumably is a jilbab.

That is very purple! Your rainbow is shaping up nicely.

I just had a look at your calender so far. It's looking fab. Lovely deep purple and a little bit of sparkle too xx

[Judith Greenwood]

Yeah - rainbow looking great - and what a shop name!

[Pat Knowles]

Very striking & a rather unusual fastening with that little what they used to call ''modesty'' bit across the bust!

LOL @happypat My thought exactly, this sort of defeats the whole purpose of jilbab, in that it's just a wee bit attention grabbing!

@nanalisarocks @happypat - ha ha - yes, it's the equivalent of a Victorian lady saucily showing a bit of well-turned ankle ....
