there's a disput however with the 'hijab' or veil. if it was really wht islam prescribe. that would be another lengthy discussion.
(1) The BEST garment is the garment of righteousness.
(2) Whenever you dress , cover your chest (bosoms).
<some say its to cover your hair and chest because of the hadith>
(3) Lengthen your garment.
(4) no tight clothing or revealing shear fabric

Malay Muslim women in the west wear long skirts/pants and blouse. They wear 'baju kurung' for gathering among the Malays, Hari Rayas. You are lucky if you can get someone to sew the 'baju kurung' for you. The 'baju kurung' is usually ship to them. Or whenever they go back to visit.
As regard to veil, it depends on where you are working. Example like a policewoman or nurse in SG, they don't wear scarf, but cover their head after duty. The same goes with some women here.
As for 'baju bengali' they can buy them at the Pakistan/Indian community.
