In today’s ever-changing world of fashion, there is a growing demand for stylish, comfortable, and practical clothing. This is particularly important for hijabi women who are looking for clothing that respects their modesty while also being functional and fashionable. Faroshah, a brand founded by Balqis in 2011, has successfully combined these qualities to create unique clothing options. Since its start as a small startup, Faroshah has become a favorite among customers, offering a variety of apparel known for its thoughtful design and high quality.

The Inception of Faroshah and its Visionary Founder

Balqis established Faroshah based on her own experiences and practical needs. In 2011, as a student, she used her savings to launch the business. At 19 years old, she struggled to find fashionable yet functional clothing. These experiences inspired her to create Faroshah, a brand dedicated to providing apparel with practical features such as pockets and nursing-friendly designs.

Balqis’s innovative approach is reflected in the unique aspects of Faroshah’s products. From tops and blouses to dresses and bottoms, every piece is designed with functionality in mind. The inclusion of pockets, whether side or front, has been a game-changer. In addition, the use of comfortable materials such as cotton, rayon, and viscose ensures that the clothing is suitable for Singapore’s hot climate. These thoughtful details demonstrate Balqis’s commitment to creating apparel that not only looks good but also serves the needs of her customers.

Unique Offerings and Customer-Centric Approach

Faroshah is known for its practical design and customization. The brand focuses on nursing-friendly features and incorporates functional elements like pockets in its apparel. Balqis introduced side pockets in her designs in 2014 to provide convenience, drawing from her own need for easy access to essentials like phones and cash.

Additionally, Faroshah prioritizes comfort by using soft and breathable fabrics such as cotton, rayon, and viscose. Before finalizing any design, Balqis personally tests the comfort of the materials. This attention to detail has earned the brand a loyal customer base in Singapore, Malaysia, the UK, the US, and Australia.

Faroshah offers a pre-order system that allows customers to customize the length of their dresses, reducing the need for costly alterations. This approach promotes sustainability by using only the necessary amount of fabric. Focusing on pre-ordered, customized pieces helps reduce waste and offers a more environmentally friendly option to customers.

Future Aspirations and Expansion Plans

Balqis has a vision for Faroshah to expand internationally. Over the next five years, she plans to grow the business outside of Singapore and bring Faroshah’s unique combination of comfort and style to a worldwide audience. The brand also intends to introduce a line of men’s apparel to meet customer demand and broaden its product range.

Balqis’s recent participation in events such as the Singapore Expo has highlighted the brand’s potential and the increasing interest in Faroshah’s offerings. These events have provided valuable exposure and feedback, strengthening Balqis’s confidence in the brand’s potential to make a significant impact in the fashion industry.

Faroshah is more than just a fashion brand; it represents the power of innovation and customer-centric design. Under Balqis’s visionary leadership, Faroshah continues to evolve, offering practical, stylish, and comfortable clothing that caters to the needs of modern hijabi women. With its focus on international expansion and sustainable practices, Faroshah is set to leave its mark on the global fashion stage.
