To ask them anything serious involving religion, politics, economics, or the history of any of the above is the equivalent of asking them about the genome code. Not one of their fashionable little designs will ever be found in any of the muslim's God-forsaken countries. And if a woman dared to wear the item photographed above, she would either be stoned or beheaded after she was raped by the usual enforcers of morals and public order. The jewelry would also be divided up pretty quick; most middle eastern types are thieves as we all know. In addition to being faggots and idiots, most of these designers are also blasphemous every chance they get. I heard business is down. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[michaelvs22]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 26th 2009 6:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Middle Eastern-inspired Fashion Pushes Buttons]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</guid><description><![CDATA[As a woman who converted to Islam over 25 years ago, I have seen the hijab, or covering, for Muslim women represented in various degrees throughout the Islamic community.  In the U.S. the Muslim women I know cover because of the faith in their hearts, and not because they are forced by male family members, or clerics.  I feel that we are more liberated than some American women, who are mindlessly dressed by fashion designers dictating what they should wear and when they should wear it.  In my opinion Nicolas Sarkozy is no different than any male fashion designer, or other male who thinks he has the right to determine whether a woman should reveal or conceal her face, arms, legs, breasts, or whatever body part he has in mind.  Perhaps the designers were using the runways to politcally support, or reject Sarkozy's ban in France.  Either way I think they are less altruistic and more concerned about their bottom line.     ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kasthebest2001]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 26th 2009 6:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Middle Eastern-inspired Fashion Pushes Buttons]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</guid><description><![CDATA[Fashion is a reflection of Socio-Economic trends. Fashion has always been influenced by those things that scare us. I wrote an article to the Ideas section of the Boston Globe in 7/07 describing the recent history of how China in the 60's, Japan Inc in the 70's and now radical Islam have scared us and hence influenced our fashions. 2007 introduced us to the Bhurqini, a bikini with attached head covering! This is a trend, not a fad so expect it to continue for up to 5 more years. Fashion can often be looked at as an assimilation of another culture occuring in three stages: 1)we eat like the target culture (which foodie among us hasn't used a Tangine or discovered cous-cous in the last three years?) 2)we decorate our house using the target cultures colors and materials 3) we dress like the culture.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[shoefro]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 9:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Middle Eastern-inspired Fashion Pushes Buttons]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</guid><description><![CDATA[MICHAELVS22: "MOST MIDDLE EASTERN TYPES ARE THIEVES AS WE ALL KNOW"   ????????????????????????<br><br><br>WHAT ARE YOU A F****** Asshole?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[thisisaleen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 18th 2009 4:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Middle Eastern-inspired Fashion Pushes Buttons]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/07/16/middle-eastern-inspired-fashion-pushes-buttons/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nice post!<br><br>Now a days lot of designs have arrived in to men & womens fashion style.
