A number of artist have used the Islamic dress in their art to present a concept or debate an idea.

My photos were taken by Canon camera EOS 500D 15.1 M.P. Used Photoshop to adjust them. However, not happy with the quality and results. In my mind, what tutors have pointed out “quantity leads to quality”. My aim is ‘Do many experiments and finalize the project.’
