	Description:		The de Young's " Contemporary Muslim Fashion” exhibit is the first at a major museum to examine the breadth of contemporary Muslim women's clothing. Although mainstream narratives about traditional Islamic dress often focus on burkas and the hijab, practitioners of Islam make up 24 percent of the global population and their sartorial choices span innumerable styles. We’ll discuss the de Young’s current foray into fashion, which is open until January 6th. If you’ve had a chance to visit, tell us, what did you think of the exhibit?
