Black Abaya with Gold Embellishments and Classic Rope Tie

Sizes: S/M
Opacity: 3

Sleeve: Fixed

Elasticity: The fabric has no elastic content, however the cotton component of the fabric will slowly stretch to your shape (similar to the way denim stretches to fit the wearer). The cuffs are elastic to fix the sleeve in place.

Note: Egyptian sizes tend to be generous as these abaya are made to be worn over clothes rather than as dresses (as is standard practice in the Egyptian market). Hence, many of the sizes are listed as being appropriate for a range, in this case, appropriate for women who normally wear Small or Medium as defined in Myriad Modest Fashion’s Size Guide.

This is the quintessential abaya. This is the image many people imagine when they say the word abaya. A sophisticated black garment with rich gold embellishments - subtle enough to maintain modesty but glittery enough to highlight the simple beauty of this classic garment.
The black in this cotton blend fabric is evenly saturated and dark enough to ensure any coloured clothing can be worn beneath. Yet, the blended cotton fabric moves easily with the body, ensuring this remains a light, summer appropriate abaya. You can wear this abaya loose over clothes, as per the classic abaya style, or you can tailor the look by adding the included gold rope tie and wearing this abaya as a dress.

While black is capable of working with any coloured hijab, bag and shoes you may wish to add to it, we recommend keeping your colour palette to black and gold to maintain the classic elegance of this garment.

You will find people moving aside or opening doors for you when you wear this abaya, as most people respect and show kindness to women who embody the sophistication and class this abaya suggests. This is truly affordable sophistication at your fingertips.
