The German streetwear and lifestyle label for young Muslims 'Styleislam' created these featured stunning [Q-Bla bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dhl-and-subject). Each unique bag is handmade in Germany, created with parts of [recycled oriental prayer rugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crossover-rug-collection) and old safety belts.

'Styleislam' and its [oriental-inspired fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abaya-capsule) aim to prove that Islam is a peaceful religion. The designs and statements of their products are attracting young Muslims around the world.

**Implications** - Islam stands out as one of the world's biggest religious groups. Companies or brands that can develop specific products that tie in religiously with this large niche market can benefit from a young population that seeks to show their religious pride but maintain their personalized, stylish flair.
