Award-winning journalist and author Hafsa Lodi explores the space where faith, fashion and feminism intersect. Writing for publications including The Guardian, The Independent and Teen Vogue, she has built a reputation for examining how Muslim women navigate identity in a globalised world. Her bestselling book Modesty: A Fashion Paradox tracks the rise of modest fashion from a niche market into a multibillion-dollar global industry.Lodi’s latest novel Turbulence turns that conversation into fiction, following a young Muslim woman navigating the tension between faith, ambition, culture and family expectations. Through her work, Hafsa Lodi challenges stereotypes and presents Muslim women as complex, layered individuals whose lives sit far beyond the simplified narratives often seen in mainstream media.
