How to Choose the Right Abaya Style for You

Choosing an abaya isn't just about colour — it's about how you actually live in it. Do you need something you can throw on for the school run, or a piece for evenings and formal events? Here's a simple breakdown of our main abaya styles at Noor Ul Haram, and where each one fits best.

Classic Abayas for everyday wear

If you want one abaya that works for almost anything, start here. Our Classic Abayas have a closed-front, full-length cut with a relaxed fit — easy to move in, easy to wash, and easy to style with a plain hijab for a clean, put-together look.

Open Front Abayas for layering

Open front abayas are worn over an inner dress or outfit, which makes them more versatile than they look. They're a good pick if you like to change up what's underneath depending on the occasion, or if you simply prefer a more open, flowing drape.

Embroidered Abayas for a dressed-up look

When you want something with a bit more detail without going full occasion-wear, embroidered abayas are the middle ground. The embroidery — usually along the sleeves or front panel — adds texture and interest while keeping the silhouette simple.

Premium Abayas for a heavier drape

Our Premium Abayas use a heavier fabric than our everyday styles, which gives them a fuller drape and a more polished finish. These tend to suit cooler weather or occasions where you want the abaya itself to be the statement piece.

Abaya Sets for zero guesswork

If picking a hijab to match your abaya feels like one decision too many some mornings, an Abaya Set solves that — abaya and hijab, already paired, ready to wear.

Our tip:

if you only own one abaya, make it a Classic. Once you know how you like to wear it, it's easy to build out from there with an Open Front for layering or an Embroidered piece for occasions. Browse the full range at noorulharam.co.uk.
