Why this Abaya with Cape works

Abaya with Cape  full length front view

This is a true two-piece: a full inner abaya plus a cape that sits over it. Because the cape is separate rather than stitched on, you can wear the inner alone on ordinary days and add the cape for occasions. Lace edges both pieces so they read as a set.

We make this abaya with cape ourselves rather than buying it in, so the fit, the fabric weight and the finishing are all under our control. That is the difference you feel in the first wash.

Nida Matte fabric

Every piece in this range is cut from Nida Matte, and that is a deliberate choice rather than a cost one. Nida Matte is a premium-weight polyester crepe with a flat, non-reflective surface. It does not shine under camera flash or tube light, which is the single most common complaint about cheaper abaya fabrics.

It also holds its drape. The fabric falls straight down from the shoulder instead of clinging to the body, and it resists creasing, so it survives a day out or a long journey without needing an iron. It is opaque enough to wear without a slip, which matters in lighter colors where thin fabrics turn transparent in daylight.

Size and length guide

Pick your size from the bust measurement, then pick your length from your height. If you fall between two sizes, take the larger one, because this abaya with cape is designed to fall loose.

SizeBust (inches)Lengths available
XS3252 / 54 / 56
S3452 / 54 / 56

Color options

Use the color selector above to see every shade this abaya with cape is currently made in. Because each piece is stitched after you order, the color list is real availability and not leftover stock.

If the color you want is not listed, message us on WhatsApp. We can usually match a specific shade in Nida Matte on request.

How to style it

Abaya with Cape  styling and drape detail

Two garments for one price, effectively. Cape on for functions, cape off for daily wear.

A quick rule that applies to this abaya with cape and to most abayas: let one element lead. If the garment carries the detail, keep the hijab, bag and shoes plain. If you want a patterned hijab, choose the plainest piece in your wardrobe to put it with.

Care instructions

Nida Matte is low maintenance, which is most of the reason we use it. Follow these and this abaya with cape will hold its color and drape for years.

  • Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, or hand wash with a mild detergent.
  • Wash dark and light colors separately for the first two washes.
  • Do not bleach and do not use fabric softener on the matte finish.
  • Do not wring. Press the water out gently and hang to dry in shade.
  • Iron on low heat from the inside out if needed. Nida Matte rarely needs it.

Abaya with Cape FAQs

Is this abaya with cape see-through?

No. The Nida Matte used for this abaya with cape is opaque in every color we offer, including the lighter tones. You do not need to wear a slip underneath it.

How do I choose the right size?

Go by your bust measurement in the size table above, then pick length by your height. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, since this abaya with cape is meant to fall loose rather than fitted.

Does the cape stay in place when I walk?

Yes. The cape is cut to sit on the shoulder line and weighted by the Nida Matte itself, so it falls straight and does not ride up. This abaya with cape was built around that.

Can I wash this abaya with cape at home?

Yes. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash with a mild detergent, then hang to dry in shade. The matte finish does not need dry cleaning.

How long does delivery take?

This abaya with cape is made to order, so allow 2 to 4 working days for stitching plus shipping time to your pin code. Cash on delivery is available.

    My length was available but the colour I wanted wasn’t. The fabric is nice, though the shade looks duller than the photo. 🎨

    Nice inner abaya. Fabric is a little thin, but okay to wear underneath.
