Your abaya is more than clothing — it’s an investment in elegance. With the right care, it can retain its shape, colour, and quality for years.
Always start by checking the abaya fabric type. Chiffon and satin should be hand-washed in cold water, while crepe and jersey can often be machine-washed on a delicate cycle. Avoid harsh detergents — gentle fabric cleansers preserve texture and colour.
When drying, never wring the abaya. Lay it flat or hang it on a padded hanger to maintain its silhouette.
For storage, keep your abayas in breathable garment bags. Avoid plastic covers which can trap moisture and cause odours. To keep them fresh, use scented sachets or natural lavender pouches.
These small steps protect your modest clothing investment — so each wear feels as special as the first.
