www.thejakartaglobe.com - The Industry Ministry is hoping to turn Indonesia into an Islamic
fashion capital by 2020, and is looking to Europe as its main export
market in the future.
Euis Saedah, the The Industry Ministry’s
director general for small- and medium-scale industries said on Tuesday
that Islamic clothing made by Indonesian designers has garnered
widespread enthusiasm, citing an abundance of orders and interest from
foreign buyers following last year’s International Islamic Fashion Fair
in Jakarta.
Euis said Indonesia’s modern, middle-class Muslims have fueled innovations and creativity in Islamic fashion. (source)
