Simple Abayas That Do More

A plain abaya does not need heavy embellishment to look put together.

Good fabric, a comfortable cut and the right fall can do most of the work. That is why plain abayas tend to become some of the most repeated pieces in a modest wardrobe.

Black Camels' plain abaya collection includes understated designs suited to women who prefer minimal styling. Depending on the piece, you can choose between softer flowing shapes, practical front-open cuts and straightforward front-closed silhouettes.

Build Your Modest Wardrobe Around the Basics

If you are buying your first few abayas, neutral colours are an easy place to begin. Black, navy, beige, coffee and similar tones pair naturally with many hijabs and accessories.

Once the basics are covered, softer colours can add variety without making your wardrobe difficult to coordinate.

A plain abaya is also useful when you want your hijab, bag or shoes to carry more of the look. For a more understated outfit, keep everything tonal.

Simple does not mean one-style-fits-all. Pay attention to the fabric, sleeve shape, neckline, pockets, front opening and overall cut when choosing the piece that best matches your routine.
