Hijab

Hijab or ħijāb is the Arabic term for "cover" (noun), based on the rootmeaning "to veil, to cover (verb), to screen, to shelter"

In some Arabic-speaking countries and Western countries, the word hijab primarily refers to women's head and body covering, but in Islamic scholarship, hijab is given the wider meaning of modesty, privacy, and morality.[1] The word used in the Qur'an for a headscarf or veil is khimār

Encyclopedia of Islam and the Muslim World by Macmillan Reference states about hijab:

The term hijab or veil is not used in the Qur'an to refer to an article of clothing for women or men, rather it refers to a spatial curtain that divides or provides privacy. The Qur'an instructs the male believers (Muslims) to talk to wives of Muhammad behind a hijab. This hijab was the responsibility of the men and not the wives of Muhammad. However, in later Muslim societies this instruction specific to the wives of Muhammad was generalized, leading to the segregation of the Muslim men and women. The modesty in Qur'an concerns both men's and women's gaze, gait, garments, and genitalia. The clothing for women involves khumūr over the necklines and jilbab (cloaks) in public so that they may be identified and not harmed. Guidelines for covering of the entire body except for the hands, the feet, and the face, are found in texts of fiqh and hadith that are developed later.

Muslims differ as to whether hijab dress should be enforced by religious police as it is or has been in Iran and Afghanistan.

The Qur'an instructs Muslims to dress in a modest fashion. The following verses are generally interpreted as applying to all Muslim men and women.

" And say to the believing women that they cast down their looks and guard their private parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof, and let them wear their head-coverings (khimars) over their bosoms (jaybs), and not display their ornaments except to their husbands or their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or those whom their right hands possess, or the male servants not having need (of women), or the children who have not attained knowledge of what is hidden of women; and let them not strike their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may be known; and turn to Allah all of you, O believers! so that you may be successful.(Qur'an 24:31)"
Courtesy Wikepedia:

There are other fashionalbe clothing that can be regarded as meeting the criteria of the Muslim's Women Dress Code, we will take a look at some of these:

This soft dressy duster can be worn to make it a good "hijab" item, yet the style is mainstream fashion.

The Hijab should cover the hair, ears, neck and chest. It can be worn in any way so as to meet these requirements.

Here we have made a few suggestions for any new hijabis or those searching for a new look.

Be creative, experiment and go for something you feel is right, appropriate and comfortable.

I think that this is what my friend would tell me if I tell her that "you are a very good muslim"
Big Grin

Just becuase a woman has hijab on doesn't mean she is more muslim than the girl without hijab, hijab doesnt make you muslim, the feelings, thoughts and beliefs in your heart make you a good person, not the cloth on your head, whether it is chanel or kmart brand scarf...
