Why this Front Open Button Abaya works

Buttons run from the collar to below the knee. That means you can open the lower buttons for stride room when you are walking or on stairs, and close them all for full coverage. It is a practical detail that most front open abayas skip in favour of hidden fastenings.

We make this front open button abaya 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 front open button abaya is designed to fall loose.

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

Front Open Button Abaya  styling and drape detail

Leave the top button open with a loosely draped hijab for a relaxed look, or fasten it high for a more formal finish.

A quick rule that applies to this front open button abaya 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 front open button abaya 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.

    Buttons are stitched on properly, none have come off. Length chart was clear and the length is right.
