Whether you’re dressing for everyday ease or stepping out for a more glam occasion, what you wear under your abaya can completely transform your look.

From silk slip dresses to summery cotton co-ords, here are the basics you can style under your abaya to make it your own.

Slip Dresses 

Tetzi Cotton Slip Dress | The Row | Dhs 3400

Perfect for layering, especially in luxe fabrics like satin or silk. Great for both casual and dressy looks.

Silk or Cotton Co-ords 

Matching tops and trousers give you a polished, put-together vibe even when the abaya is open.

Wide-Leg Trousers 

Belted Silk Twill Wide Leg Pants | Zimmerman | Dhs 1535

Breezy and elegant, especially when paired with a tucked-in blouse or fitted top.

Jumpsuits 

Single breasted jumpsuit | Norma Kamali | Dhs 1217

One-piece ease with elevated style. Pick a structured or flowy silhouette depending on the vibe.

Maxi Dresses 

Floral Victoria Cotton Print Vintage Maxi Dress Black | RAHYMA | Dhs 1715

A printed or textured maxi dress adds visual spark, especially if you wear your abaya open in the front.

Denim and a Statement Tee 

For off-duty days, a classic jeans-and-tee combo keeps it chic and casual.
