Review of SHUKR: Latter Day Shops

August 2, 2012 in Customer Experience, Partners & Friends

Oftentimes, people are surprised to learn that many of SHUKR’s customers come from different faith groups. We’re excited about this and proud to be able to serve people of all religions who find that their faith encourages them dress modestly, without having to sacrifice style and beauty.

Here is a link to a review done by “Latter Day Shops” who tried out our Embroidered Hera Tunic.
