This Dhul Hijjah help a female owned business grow by donating to AMEERA, a modest womenswear brand!


This Dhul Hijjah help a female owned business grow by donating to AMEERA, a modest womenswear brand!

The Ameera(can) Dream:

My name is Ameera Hammouda, and I am the founder of AMEERA, a lifestyle brand for young women to shop the wardrobe they need to succeed. 

As a young Muslim woman, it is difficult to shop. Myself and my mom still can never find clothing that meets our Islamic dress code without compromising our sense of style.

Upon graduating from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business where I designed clothing for the Fashion and Retail Association, I decided to develop a brand that will change the stigma of Muslim women being oppressed and empower women through their wardrobes.


Why Muslim Women Hate Shopping:

I surveyed 300 women. 89% of these Women said they struggle to find everyday wardrobe pieces. We had the shared experience of frustrating shopping, low self-esteem due to “unflattering” and “frumpy” looking modest options and even shopping from the men’s sections to find loose fitting clothing. Nothing on the market is designed with young Muslim women in mind, so there is always a slit, short hem, a scooped neckline, sheer fabric, a cut out, etc. that requires countless loads of unnecessary layering or unflattering sizing up.

Great Style, All in One Place:

Instead of spending hours shopping online and going to five different stores to find one mediocre modest outfit, you can reliably and conveniently shop from AMEERA! AMEERA’s clothes will be made from the highest quality fabrics, made ethically and by artisans, and developed to create a modest, yet flattering silhouette with matching hijabs for every outfit! AMEERA will house all the fashion every Muslim woman craves, but can never find. AMEERA is a clothing brand defeating this compromise of Islamic dress code and style. Clothes from AMEERA are designed by a Muslim woman with Muslim women in mind! AMEERA is a brand Muslim women can trust to find a modest and stylish look for any occasion!

We’re in this Together:

Help me reach the next milestone in bringing the world AMEERA, the first lifestyle brand for young Muslim women.  I am committed to bringing my designs to life, but I need your support to make AMEERA a tangible reality!

How your Funds will be Used:

  1. Manufacture the first collection

  2. On-board a Website Developer so you can shop our future website!

  3. Collaboration with “Pop-up Mob” to host a premiere collection launch event and increase brand awareness

Paying it Forward:

I want to bring to light that paying it forward is a foundation of AMEERA. In these uncertain times I would like to help you do twice as much good by paying it forward on your behalf. For every $100 raised I will be making and donating a washable medical mask to a practitioner or nurse in need to stop the spread of COVID-19. 

Slide into those DM’s:

All donations make a difference and whether or not you donate, sharing this campaign via email will exponentially increase the donations. Please donate and share! Thank you so much for your support!

Eid Mubarak and Happy Arafat, Dhul Hijjah and Qurbani giving! Stay well!

-Ameera
