One of the most important occasions in the Muslim calendar, Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan and offers the perfect opportunity to reflect, spend quality time with family, feast on delicious culinary delights and look and feel fabulous while doing so.
With festivities beginning on the evening of Tuesday 9 April – at sunset on the night of the first sighting of the crescent moon – now’s the time to embrace the Eid tradition of treating yourself to a new piece of clothing.
Whether you’re staying at home with loved ones or wanting to make an entrance at that special event, our expert stylists have curated a new-season edit of looks to make your Eid celebrations even more memorable. And if you’d prefer to have a professional help you plan what to wear for Eid, you can book an appointment with one of our friendly and unfailingly fashion-savvy stylists here.
Look 1
It’s all about exquisite fabric. Sumptuous satins and rich silks are enlivened with modern gold touches, while understated accessories allow classic draping to take centre stage.
Look 2
Mirror the joy of the season with mood-boosting colour palettes. This high-impact pink blazer is the perfect combination of bold and chic when styled with crisp white. Wear with ultra-feminine finishing touches for a look made for the modern woman.
Look 3
Modesty needn’t preclude glamour, and nothing says ‘celebration’ quite like sequins. Make an unforgettable entrance in this cape-effect gown, and pair with glistening jewels to catch the light at every turn.
Look 4
Reinvent tradition in style this Eid with this modern ensemble. Add personality via whimsical prints and bold colour pops for a look you’ll want to wear year after year.
Look 5
For more formal invitations, a classic single-breasted suit is a sartorial failsafe. Elegant yet eye-catching courtesy of its fresh hue, its linen fabric keeps things lighthearted. Indulge in a classic watch to make this Eid truly one to remember.
