Before you buy: the abaya test

Take the measurements of the loosest abaya or dress you plan to wear under the coat. Compare shoulder width, bust circumference, sleeve width and coat length with the product chart. Size labels are not reliable enough for layered dressing.

• Relaxed, oversized or straight silhouette with no shaping at the waist.
• Mid-calf to ankle-grazing length, depending on your height.
• Wide armholes and sleeves that do not compress the abaya underneath.
• A back vent that remains closed enough while walking.
• Opaque fabric, secure front closure and pockets that do not pull across the hips.

How to make the outfit look polished

Let the long vertical lines do the work. Keep the trench open, place the scarf ends across the chest rather than behind the shoulders, and repeat one dark color in the shoe or bag. Avoid rolling the sleeves, tying the belt behind the back or stacking several bulky knits underneath.

Adds definition to loose, flowing layers.

Cold, wind and rain adjustments

For wind, choose a grippy jersey hijab and secure it with magnets. For rain, shorten the gap between the trench and dress hems and choose flat boots with a stable sole. In colder weather, use one thin thermal layer beneath the abaya or dress instead of a fitted sweater over it.

Abayas to layer under a long trench

A clean crepe or softly textured abaya gives a trench room to remain the outer layer. Check the coat against the abaya’s shoulder, sleeve and total-width measurements before ordering.
