Ramadan is all about spending time with friends and family, and offers a lovely excuse to dress up with those we love.
With so many iftars to attend, it can get very expensive trying to buy something new for every event, so a better option is to look for a few key pieces to add into an already existing wardrobe.
Scroll through the gallery above to discover our favourite pieces.
Marks & Spencer have put their excellent fabrics to good use, offering a whole range of modest looks that are as pretty as they are stylish.
Zara, meanwhile, has managed to create an embroidered dress that looks far more expensive than its price tag, as too has Anotah, with its rather gorgeous dresses with interesting details that belie the high-street price.
Ted Baker has a dependable collection for Ramadan, with ruffled satins and full-length floral looks. Vero Moda has dressing for less nailed with its range of full-length frocks while Cos shows the power of simplicity with its asymmetric ruffled dresses.
Florals are still very much on point for Ramadan and beyond, making it much easier to get lots of wear out of printed pieces, while classic neutrals from label such as Glamorous and Stradivarius are never really going to go out of style.
