Meet the founders - Momina Modestwear

The faces behind the brand
Fareeha & Haider
A memorable photo from the beginning of our journey in the summer of 2019.
It's just the two of us.
We tied the knot in the summer of 2019 and lived in Mississauga, ON, until the end of 2020.
After taking a spontaneous three-day drive to Banff national park, we started exploring the idea of moving to the city of Calgary. And within five weeks, we packed up our house and drove to Calgary to our current home, where we have been ever since.
We both work in the tech industry and have 9-5 jobs.
Outside of work, most of our time is spent on Momina Modestwear. We work on every single aspect of this business ourselves. Everything is done in-house, from product development and photography to copywriting and website design.
We strive to ensure our content and products align with the religious and moral values set forth in Islam. Hence, you may not see us following trends. Everything we do has had a tremendous amount of thought behind it.

Fareeha
THE AESTHETIC GURU
Anything and everything to do with creativity.
Fareeha manages our social media and content creation as well as photography and product design.

Haider
HANDS ON TECH
Haider handles the technical side of things.
From our website design to marketing and all the boring accounting and legal work.
