OUR STORY

As someone who values both modesty and modernity, I’ve often faced judgments and stereotypes as a hijabi. People saw the scarf before they saw me, often underestimating my abilities and overlooking my potential. These experiences only strengthened my resolve to embrace my identity with pride. At the same time, I struggled to find clothing in India that truly resonated with who I am—pieces that were elegant, empowering, and versatile. Traditional modest wear often felt disconnected from the woman I am today: ambitious, dynamic, and confident.

That’s when I decided to create Modest Arkive—India’s first premium modest fashion brand. It’s not just about clothing; it’s about redefining what modest fashion can be. Modest Arkive was created for women like me—those who seek timeless pieces that align with their values without compromising on style.

Fashion has always been a key part of how I define myself, yet modest clothing often felt out of sync with my modern lifestyle. Through bold designs and exceptional craftsmanship, Modest Arkive celebrates the strength and individuality of women who embrace modesty.

This isn’t just my journey—it’s ours.
