Al Assim — Classic Butterfly Abaya (Front Zip)
• Flowing butterfly cut with a wide, elegant drape
• Simple round neckline
• Loose, comfortable fit around the main body
• Sleeves taper at the wrist (approx. 24 cm)
• Front zip for easy wear and breastfeeding access
• Subtle finger loops to keep sleeves in place
• Made from lightweight, high-quality Nida fabric
This is our classic Butterfly Abaya, designed with comfort, coverage, and ease in mind. The cut is wide and fluid, allowing the fabric to fall naturally from the arms and move gently with you. It’s a style that feels effortless to wear while still looking elegant.
The body is intentionally generous for full coverage, while the sleeves are shaped to sit neatly at the wrist. We’ve added thin finger loops to help keep the sleeves in place and maintain the drape throughout the day, especially when moving or walking.
Finished with a simple round neckline and a front zip, this abaya is easy to put on and practical for everyday wear, including breastfeeding.
Butterfly abayas are extra wide by nature, which creates their beautiful flow but also means they tend to fall slightly longer. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down. If you prefer your abaya to reach the floor, your usual size will work well.
The wrist opening measures approximately 24cm around.
Width:
130cm (260cm full round).
170cm wrist to wrist.
Please note that this is already an extra-wide cut. If you prefer extremely oversized butterfly styles, this design may feel more structured.
Care Instructions — Nida Fabric
Nida is a lightweight, breathable fabric with a soft, fluid drape. To keep your abaya looking its best, we recommend gentle care.
• Machine wash on a cold or delicate cycle
• Use mild detergent
• Do not tumble dry
• Hang to dry naturally
• Steam or iron on low heat if needed
With proper care, Nida fabric maintains its shape, flow, and colour beautifully over time.
Size Guide Note — Butterfly Abaya
This Butterfly Abaya is designed with an extra-wide cut to create its signature drape. Because of this generous width, the abaya naturally falls slightly longer than standard cuts.
If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down. If you prefer a full, floor-length fit, your usual size will be suitable.
Available sizes: 52, 54, 56, 58, 60

Allahuma Barik, The abaya is soooo beautifully made, the fabric feels so luxurious and the quality is unmatched as always. It matches perfectly with my black sotra Khimar. Alhamdullilah I'm so happy with my purchase.
Wish it was wider, but the quality is great and I love string part for the hands
Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the quality and hand string detail.
This abaya measures 130cm in width, which is 260cm all around, and is intentionally designed to be wide while maintaining a smooth drape without added panels.
