Our Chiffon Hijab in Rosewood.
Editor's note: This post is part of a series of customer education posts about our various hijab collections to help you understand the fabric, care, styling and color options for your favorite hijabs!
Chiffon fabric is the OG. It has forever been like an old friend you know you can always count on. There is no denying its longevity and versatility, but not all chiffons are equal.
High-quality Chiffon Hijabs were one of the first evergreen products offered by Haute Hijab. Available in rectangle and square – in rich solid colors and fun prints – nothing can make you feel as put together as a fresh and sleek HH chiffon. As soon as that chiffon is wrapped, you will feel ready to conquer the day with confidence.
What Makes Our Chiffons Different and Great?
We have pored over every detail to provide high quality in a wide selection of colors and designs. From the perfect size to fabric integrity, our Chiffon Hijabs are made with you in mind.
Whether you’re going to the office, a parent-teacher conference or a party, the beautiful, crisp, matte finish of our chiffon hijabs always deliver. HH solid color chiffons are slightly textured without being too thick or too thin and can be worn year-round. They are breezy and light in the summertime yet still comfortable during the chilly seasons.
While our solid color chiffons come in the same texture and thickness, our printed chiffons vary. (Click here to learn more details about chiffon fabric.) They can range from being smooth and thin to highly textured and thick, almost like a georgette or even a crepe-like fabric. You can always find these details in the product description of each print in addition to the handy fabric guide alongside it. No matter your preference, once you try and feel an HH chiffon there is no going back.
Our chiffons are 100 percent polyester, and select colors as well as all prints are sourced from deadstock fabric. Deadstock is left-over fabric used by other manufacturers that would otherwise end up going to waste. We are committed to continuing to take steps to reduce waste and move towards sustainability. Look out for Recycled Chiffons coming later this year, Insha’Allah!
Chiffon Neutrals Palette - Cool
The Chiffon Neutrals Palette in Cool includes four of our must-have solid chiffon hijabs in Pearl, Dusty Mauve, Pewter and Mink, specially curated for cool skin tones. Our signature chiffon features a slight texture to prevent slipping, with an effortless drape to keep you feeling polished. Pro tip—you save $5 when you purchase these beauties as a set. As if you needed another reason to stock up ;)
Solid Colors or Prints What Color is Right for You?
We customize many of our colors for a rich palette with depth and variety to flatter various skin tones and undertones. Our solid chiffons are a curated range of heavenly neutrals, stunning jewel tones, seasonal colors and everything in between. So, what color is right for you? You can choose according to what looks good on your skin tone, to finish off an outfit or just what appeals to you! To help you get started, check out some of our universally flattering best-sellers like Rosewood, Pewter, Mink and Dusty Mauve just to name a few! We have a helpful guide on choosing the perfect colors for your skin tone on our blog and on YouTube.

There is also the exciting HH Tuesday Print Drop! Every. Single. Tuesday. at 11 a.m. EST. With eight brand new, hand-selected prints, you’ll hear at least a few of them calling your name.
We offer classics like leopard, snakeskin, polka-dot and chainlink prints, as well as our staple florals and some fun geometric and abstract patterns! You can find some print inspiration here or from our HH fam, regularly featured on the HH Spotted Club Instagram page.
The Big Question Rectangle or Square?

As the popularity of the rectangle hijab took off, the square cut became harder to find. Our HH fam knows that Melanie’s signature style is the square chiffon. Whether she’s rocking an always popular neutral or a gorgeous print, Melanie has helped the square make a comeback! HH provides all of our chiffons in both square and rectangle, so no matter what color or look you’re going for, you can find it in your favorite cut! The choice of a rectangle versus a square is totally up to you and your personal preference. But, if wearing squares feels a little big intimidating to you, check out this post for easy step-by-step guidance!
We also made sure to perfect the measurements for the square and the rectangle. After some trial and error, we found that rectangle chiffons work best in 72 x 27 inches, and 40 x 40 inches is optimal for square chiffons. Styling either cut in these sizes is effortless, keeping your look intact all day long.
How to Care for Your Chiffon Hijab
If you haven’t already fallen in love with HH chiffons by now, we have two words for you: wrinkle resistant. Who doesn’t love wrinkle-resistant clothing? We barely have time to choose an outfit, much less iron the hijab to go with it! Your crown needs to be ready when you are queen, and the HH chiffon hijab is always ready.
Whenever it needs a wash, spot treat with your go-to stain remover if needed, toss in the washer with like colors on warm and then tumble dry low. And voila, you're done. Our chiffons can be washed over and over without losing their incredible look and feel.
A durable, low-maintenance, and effortlessly beautiful hijab - if that’s not the cream of the crop, we don’t know what is.
How to Style Your Chiffon
Chiffon hijabs work with so many dynamic styles, as seen in Haute Hijab’s Definitive Hijab Style Guide. Our signature chiffon is smooth with a bit of texture, so we recommend an underscarf and magnet pins for the most secure style. However, it depends on your preferred look – for example, some square styles don’t need an underscarf. You can find an easy styling tutorial for both squares and rectangles here.
We also have this comprehensive prints styling guide that takes you through the various types of prints we offer and how to work them! If you haven’t tried prints yet, you’ll find this breakdown very helpful!

Our favorite style is one that shows off that flawless, smooth-as-a-waterfall drape you get with an HH chiffon.
Chiffon will always be a beautiful classic, low maintenance hijab fabric that looks great dressed up or down. If you’re already a die-hard chiffon girl, make sure to explore all your options and refresh your collection with new colors, cuts, or prints! If you haven’t tried it yet, what are you waiting for?
