Abaya is definitely a famous wear among muslim countries, especially gulf region. Living in Dubai for a while, I can say that a lot of non muslim women love to wear Abaya.

It is an easy choice to put on top of everything when you are in hurry, going to grocery or dropping kids to school. It is an elegant choice to use formally when going to governmental sectors in GCC and believe me it is also wonderful for a night with friends, a breakfast in the mall or a walk in the park.

Abaya makes you feel more comfortable about your body shape, if you have few extra pounds, you are overweight or you are simply not in shape, all of this headache goes under the abaya.

Recently, abaya fashion business has multiplied enormously with a very wide range of prices and styles ranging from the budget abaya that can be as low as 20 dollars or fancy designer ones that can exceed 3000 dollars.

Abaya styles have grown from this classic black abaya to be an extensive industry offering several colors, fabrics and seasonal differences.

Abaya usually comes with a sheila or a scarf, something that is a part of the authentic muslim womenswear.

As dubai is a famous destination for buying abayas, it is highly recommended If you are in dubai or planning to visit to check dubai abaya shops. in Dubai, if you have an average budget of 200 dollars, it is very easy to find brand shops of Abayas in large malls like Mirdif city center, Barsha mall, Mall of the emirates, Dubai mall and many others. If you are on an average budget of 100 dollars, you can also find dedicated abaya malls that offer bargain price. The most famous one is the one in Mirdif area. There are even cheaper areas or separate shops that you can find in Deira area, it will work for you only if you have been a while in dubai and has the know how of bargaining with this kind of sellers. you can get one abaya for as less as 15 dollars!

Although shopping has always been an experience women like to do physically, it is becoming popular now to go for online option as it is generally cheaper and gives much more flexibility on location, delivery, model and colors.

It is also easier now with size and fitting guides that makes you comfortable about size. In addition, most of the online shops have flexible return policies to the extent that some of them adopt no question asked return policy as long as the item is intact.

Personally, i still see shopping as an experience rather than an objective, yet with a life full of options there is a place for everyone and every mood. A mixture of both can be great, go online watch abaya styles and be determined, this will definitely make the shopping experience more efficient and more enjoyable.
