In recent years, Muslim women are challenged on finding good quality Islamic clothing that are both stylish and affordable. Fortunately, in today’s contemporary world and the rapid expansion of online businesses and internet focused media, there has now been a plethora of choices for Muslim women especially with regards to exceptional clothing. Accessibility to such fashion has become much easier than ever before.
The wide variety of choices of
Abaya nowadays can be overwhelming especially for first time buyers. Many
online boutiques and stores have contributed to the ever-growing selection of
Abaya available. Even with assistance from articles from known Islamic style
reporters and bloggers, picking the best Abaya can still be quite a handful.
We have listed few steps on how
to ensure that you purchase the perfect Abaya:
1. Research before shopping.
It is rather
common for women to follow their impulses. Shopping is no exception, in fact
most women tends to purchase products that they are attracted to, only to find
out soon that it doesn’t quite match their preferences and style. Most of the
times the design and material is to blame, but at times it is because that
women didn’t give much thought before making the purchase.
Always ask
yourself questions like:
-
Will this flatter my shape?
-
Do the colors suit my complexion?
-
Is there another option that better suits my
shape and size?
2. Order
the perfect size for a perfect fit.
So you’ve placed
your order online, felt excited and anxiously anticipated its arrival. Then the
day of delivery has arrived, and you found out that the Abaya you ordered
doesn’t fit properly…
This scenario
surely has had happened to thousands of online shoppers already, it’s a
frustrating thing to experience. Best way to avoid this is to ensure that you
are ordering the right size for your fit.
Most online
boutiques have a separate page on their website where they provide further
detail about sizing options. Carefully examine these before picking your size,
sizes may also vary depending from where the website originates. Size 10 in UAE
may be different from size 10 in US.
Many Abaya design
houses will rely on a sizing guide that is determined by the actual Abaya
length and not by body size, especially Abaya designers from Dubai and
surrounding gulf areas. Whenever you see a size 50 in Abaya, it is probable
that it is pertaining to 50 to inches in length, which tells you if you will be
covered from head to toe.
Although a few Abaya
manufacturers do provide custom sizing, most don’t and instead offer a selected
range of sizes. It is very important to know your own body measurements –
specifically the bust and garment length when it comes to Abayas. Knowing your
measurements may just save you the hassle of having to return purchased goods
through the post!
3. Read
and check the label.
Purchasing an
Abaya based solely on how good it looks is critical. Most companies provide
information about the product, it is important to read and check the details
and facts about the product before making any purchases.
Keep in mind that
some companies offer Abayas that are suited for certain climates. Gulf based
companies tend to design Abayas that are suited for summer climate, which can
be worn for all seasons.
4. Purchase
from reputable companies.
The majority of
companies are very professional and prompt in terms of product quality and
customer service. It is important to consider the company’s background and
experience in making quality Abayas. You can easily determine the reputable
from those which are not with just a few clicks. Doing research online can
provide reviews detailing product reliability and quality.
Browsing the
company’s social media platforms like Facebook, can also provide relevant
information regarding the company. Satisfied customers are most likely to leave
positive reviews and comments on their page.
