Why Choose a Black Front Open Abaya
Black is the most searched abaya color in India for a reason. A black abaya hides creases and small marks through a long day, suits every skin tone and goes with any hijab you already own, from a plain black one to a printed or embroidered one for a function. This front open abaya is cut from opaque matte Nida, so the black stays deep and non-shiny instead of turning grey in daylight. Many families still call it a black burqa: it is the same full length modest garment.
Keeping it deep black: wash it inside out in cold water with a dark-color detergent, keep it away from bleach and dry it in shade. Drying in direct sun is what fades black fabric fastest.

Adult Abaya Size Guide
These are the final garment measurements you will receive, including ease and margin. All measurements are in inches.
| Size | XS | S | M | L | XL | 2XL | 3XL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chest | 37 | 39 | 41 | 43 | 45 | 47 | 50 |
| Waist | 35 | 37 | 39 | 41 | 43 | 45 | 48 |
| Hip | 43 | 45 | 47 | 49 | 51 | 53 | 56 |
Choosing Your Length
Length is a separate option so the abaya clears your ankle without dragging. Pick it from your height, then pick your size independently. All five lengths are available in every size and every color:
| Your Height | Choose Length |
|---|---|
| 5’0″ / 152 cm | 52 inches abaya |
| 5’2″ / 158 cm | 54 inches abaya |
| 5’4″ / 165 cm | 56 inches abaya |
| 5’6″ / 171 cm | 58 inches abaya |
| 5’8″ / 177 cm | 60 inches abaya |
Chest is the deciding measurement on this abaya. If you fall between two sizes, take the larger one, especially if you plan to wear it buttoned over another layer. If you are taller than 5’8″ or want a length outside this table, we stitch to order. The full abaya size chart has every measurement.
How To Wear It
Button it up with a matching hijab for a classic abaya look, or leave it open over a long dress or a kurta and palazzo for a lighter open abaya style. The mandarin collar keeps the neckline neat either way. Browse more front open abayas to compare styles.

Care
Cold machine wash with similar colors, or hand wash. Wash dark colors separately for the first few washes. Do not bleach or wring. Dry in shade, never in direct sunlight, and iron on the reverse side at a low temperature so the matte finish stays flat. Package contains one abaya only, without the other accessories (if any) shown in the pictures.

Questions About This Black Front Open Abaya
What is a front open abaya? A front open abaya opens all the way down the front, like a long coat, and closes with buttons. It is also searched as an open front abaya or open abaya.
What should I wear underneath an open abaya? When you wear it open, pair it with a long modest dress, or a long kurta with palazzo or a maxi skirt, in a matching or neutral color. When it is buttoned, any comfortable modest outfit works.
What is a mandarin collar? A mandarin collar is a short stand-up collar that sits close around the neck without folding over, which gives the abaya a clean, structured neckline.
Which size and length should I pick? Take your chest measurement for the size and your height for the length. They are separate options, so a 3XL at 52 inches or an XS at 60 inches are both available.
Can I wear it fully closed? Yes. The front buttons close it fully, so it works as a regular abaya too.
Will the black fade after washing? Not with normal care. Nida Matte holds dye well. Wash it cold, inside out, and dry it in shade, and it stays deep black for years.
Is black too hot for an Indian summer? Nida Matte is light and breathable, and a loose cut lets air move.
