The 1 piece Amira Hijab in lycra fabric drapes beautifully, is cool, stretchy, and light weight so it does not add bulk and you can hardly feel it on. The silky fabric is a luxurious 95% polyester/5% Spandex blend. This lovely hijab is accented with over five hundred 2 mm round aurora borealis rhinestones, which form a decorative design across the back of the hijab and a design across the forehead panel. The hijab is also embellished with over one hundred 4 mm square amber rhinestones. The 1-piece Al-Amira Hijab resembles the 2-piece version, but the 'headband' forehead section is sewn directly into a continuous seam along the hood (head and neck covering) opening for the face. Can be machine washed on a delicate cycle in lukewarm water but preferably hand wash to protect the rhinestones. Use a mild detergent that contains no chlorine bleach or fabric conditioner. Air dry, never dry lycra in a tumble dryer - the heat destroys the elastane in the fabric and could damage the rhinestones.
