Can there ever be a feminist interpretation of Sunni Islam? Has this been done?

I know this is way less in depth than what you're after, but no and as far as I'm aware - no.

There are certainly movements that call for a less strict interpretation when it comes to women though. For example, no Quranic verse actually calls for the burqa - it just calls for women to show 'modesty' - and there's a fairly identical passage calling on men to display modesty as well (24:30 and 24:31).

But for a version that might align with western concepts of feminism? I can't see how its possible, you'd have to interpret things so loosely and shake it up that it wouldn't be sunni Islam anymore.

Absolutely

One Muslim feminist in particular, Hassan, has some fantastic arguments on the egalitarian nature of the Qur'an. I can upload the pdf later today if you're interested

It depends on how you view western feminism.
