Fulla Wardrobe: Conservative Yet Chic

Are you frustrated with modern Western fashion? Do you ever wish for an easy-to-relate-to fashion role model for your daughters and nieces? Well don’t pull your hair out just yet. Fulla is here and with her friends, Yasmeen and Nada, she is taking the young girl’s fashion world by storm. With their up to date yet conservative outfit choices, they promote good behavior and responsible dressing.

Fulla is not just a doll.
She is not simply an inanimate object little Islamic girls play with. She is a proud fashion icon. Fulla has helped bring about a better awareness of Islamic fashion and the traditions and regulations involved in dressing appropriately and well. She seems to have mastered the balance between being stylish while maintaining her modesty.

Fulla and Fashion
A variety of clothing options is available for the typical Fulla doll. Sure the traditional outdoor wear of abayas and ankle-length dresses are in full-force, but her indoor wear include a veritable treasure trove of slacks, shirts, casual skirts and other accessories.
Abayas are over garments meaning they are to be worn above regular clothing. They are the traditional outdoor dress code for Muslim women and are usually black in color. An abaya can cover the whole body apart from the feet, hands and face. The niqab is a face veil revealing only the eyes.
Most people surmise that the little girls playing with and dressing Fulla are more likely to handle the transition from bare-headedness and wearing practically anything they want to the relative conservativeness of the Islamic adult female dress code.

Fulla as Inspiration
Fulla’s modest garments are meant to inspire Muslim girls to dress and act in a manner appropriate to their culture and age. To some the wardrobe may be conservative and more than a little stifling, but Fulla manages to create a look that is both fun and functional.
Muslim girls are experiencing a shift towards wanting more familiar and relatable icons to emulate. The Fulla doll and her friends have shown female children that there is much fun to be had while still adhering to the dress code and traditions of their Islamic heritage.
The Fulla dolls have also adapted quite well to each region that they are available in. For more conservative Islamic countries such as Saudi Arabia, the black abaya and head scarf are standard wear. The creators of Fulla deemed a niqab to be a bit drastic for the kiddy market. But for those more liberal Islamic countries such as Syria, Fulla has a more extensive wardrobe consisting of pastel coats and white head scarves.

No Beach for Fulla
One item that is conspicuously missing from the Fulla wardrobe is the swim suit. Due to the strict moral code that forbids women in Islam to show off their physical attributes, the creators of Fulla believe that it wouldn’t be appropriate to expose her the way other doll manufacturers have done their dolls.
Fulla’s charm and enduring popularity is intrinsically tied to the traditional and modest aspect of her character. She is someone that these girls can see themselves becoming in the future. Her illusory reality is not a concept that is foreign and unreachable to them.
