Saira Khan Instagram – I can do modest dressing too 😉. The traditional Shalwaar Kameez – never wore them out as a kid growing up in the 80’s 90’s – I was so embarrassed of being different – also didn’t want to attract unnecessary racist remarks that were rampant at that time.
Now I have no problem at all. Our country has changed, so much cross cultural adoption – wearing a long top with trousers not seen as “weird”.
When I visit my mum, she much prefers seeing me dressed in traditional South Asian clothes – so out of respect I leave my skimpy stuff at home and bring out my beautiful modest clothes to please her. ❤️
We’ve come a long way in being tolerant …. Lots more progress to make, but let’s celebrate that we are moving forward in the right direction. I have no problem wearing my shalwaar kameez for the whole world to see – I wear it with pride. People come up to me now to say how pretty it is and not “ oi fu*k off to your own country”
Positive Vibes only and I love that now being “different” is celebrated. ❤️❤️
