Areeba Kids Black Abaya for Girls: An A-line abaya with wide sleeves and a belt in Nida Matte
The Areeba in black is an A-line abaya with wide sleeves and a belted kids abaya from 5 to 14 years. Black is the shade that gets worn most: it goes with every hijab, hides a full day of madrasa, masjid and play and never looks out of place. Cut in five age-based sizes.
It is made in premium Nida Matte fabric, the soft matte weave we use across the collection. Nida Matte is opaque, light on the skin, drapes straight without clinging and barely creases through a full day out.
Why The Belt Matters On A Growing Child
Tie the belt while the abaya still has growing room and she gets a defined waist. Leave it off as she grows into the size and it becomes a straight loose abaya. The wide flared sleeves let air move through the garment, which matters through an Indian summer in a full-length abaya.
Key Features
- A-line cut with wide flared sleeves: cool to wear and shaped without being fitted
- Belt at the waist: tie it for shape or leave it off
- Round neckline: sits neatly under a hijab or scarf
- Pull-on styling: no zip to fight with
- Premium Nida Matte fabric: soft, lightweight, fully opaque and skin-friendly
Which Size For Her Age? Sizing From 5 To 14 Years
Do not go by her regular clothing size. Measure around the fullest part of her chest with a soft tape and match that number to the chart below. Length only needs to reach the ankle. These are final garment measurements and already include wearing room.
| Size | Age | Chest (in) | Waist (in) | Length (in) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5-6 Years | 5 and 6 year olds | 26 | 23 | 38 |
| 7-8 Years | 7 and 8 year olds | 28 | 25 | 40 |
| 9-10 Years | 9 and 10 year olds | 30 | 26 | 42 |
| 11-12 Years | 11 and 12 year olds | 32 | 28 | 44 |
| 13-14 Years | 13 and 14 year olds | 34 | 30 | 46 |
Quick guide: 5-6 Years suits most girls in UKG and class 1, 7-8 Years classes 2 and 3, 9-10 Years classes 4 and 5, 11-12 Years classes 6 and 7, and 13-14 Years classes 8 and 9. Always confirm against her chest measurement.
If her chest falls between two sizes, take the larger one. A kids abaya is meant to hang loose, and the extra room buys you another season of wear. Girls above 14 or outside the chart are covered by our made-to-order sizing further down this page.
Why A Kids Black Abaya
A black abaya for girls is the one that gets worn most. It goes with every hijab, it hides a full day of madrasa, masjid and play, and it never looks out of place. If you are buying one abaya rather than two, buy the black one.
It is also the lowest maintenance shade in the range. Wash darks separately for the first two or three washes and after that it can go in with the rest. See the full color run on the Areeba kids abaya. The matching Areeba kids white abaya is listed separately.
Why Parents Pick Black for Everyday Wear
Black is the practical choice for a child. Dust from the playground, a spilled snack or a muddy park bench barely shows, so the Areeba stays presentable from morning tuition to evening masjid without a change. It is the abaya girls end up wearing most days of the week.
Pairs With Any Hijab She Owns
Black goes with every hijab colour, from a bright pink she picked herself to a plain white one for prayer. You never have to buy a matching scarf, which is why black is the shade most families buy first.
Keeping Black Nida Deep Black
- Wash it alone for the first two washes; after that, only with other dark clothes
- Turn it inside out and use cold water with a mild or dark-wash detergent
- Dry in shade. Strong sun is what turns black fabric brown or grey
- Skip the tumble dryer and iron inside out on medium heat

Areeba Kids Black Abaya: Questions
Will the black fade?
Nida Matte holds its colour well if you wash it cold, inside out and dry it in shade. Most fading comes from hot water and direct sun.
Is black too hot for summer?
Nida is light and breathable, so it is comfortable indoors and for short trips outside. For long afternoons in full sun, a lighter shade will feel cooler.
Which size for a 10 year old?
The 9-10 Years size: 30 inch chest, 42 inch length. Go up one size if she is tall or broad for her age.
Is there a white version?
Yes. The Areeba kids white abaya is the same cut in white, the traditional choice for Umrah and a favourite for Eid.
