“Nomads are known for their explorer spirit and tenacious mindset. Our customers are just like them, searching the world for styles that inspire and embolden.”
Shay Founder
Shay Jaffar is an embodiment of the nomadic spirit. She has moved from place to place her entire life, drawing inspiration everywhere she goes.
Shay’s creative essence and passion for design were clear even as a young child. Inspired by her mother, a stay-at-home mom who took the bold decision to enroll in fashion school, Shay would spend hours drawing out her own unique looks.

Her love of style and design stayed with her as she bloomed into adulthood. Shay followed her passion and studied for a Master’s in entrepreneurship at Babson College, where she developed the skills to start her own brand. She founded @shayjaffar, a New York City-based label that creates high-end couture and evening wear for young modest women.
Founded out of Shay’s aspiration to reach a wide range of curious women who share her passion for modest style around the world, Nomad Story was born. She hopes to inspire women to exude their individuality with varied captivating looks. Her love of design and her adventurous spirit are reflected in everything she does at Nomad Story
