With a report from Thomson Reuters, predicting that by 2019, Muslims will be spending $484 billion (Sh48 trillion) on clothing and footwear, Kenyan fashion label Wambui Mukenyi has joined the growing list of labels courting the increasingly lucrative Muslim market in Kenya and Eastern Africa region.

She has recently debuted a few Muslim wear pieces to capture the grace and beauty of Muslim women.

The collection reinvents the hijab by blending in different luxurious colored fabrics to create the simple yet elegant look, embellishing lace and detachable peplum.
