Abaya Care Instructions

To keep your abaya looking elegant and long-lasting, follow these care instructions:

Washing Instructions

  • Hand Wash Recommended: Use cold or lukewarm water with a mild detergent to maintain fabric quality.

  • Machine Wash (if needed): Use a gentle cycle with similar colors in cold water. Place the abaya in a laundry bag to prevent snagging.

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or strong detergents as they may damage the fabric.

Drying Instructions

  • Air Dry: Hang your abaya in a shaded area to dry naturally. Direct sunlight may cause fading.

  • Avoid Tumble Drying: High heat can damage delicate fabrics and embroidery.

Ironing & Steaming

  • Use Low Heat: If ironing is needed, use a low to medium setting.

  • Steam for Best Results: A garment steamer is the safest way to remove wrinkles without damaging the fabric.

  • Iron Inside Out: For embroidered or embellished abayas, iron on the reverse side or place a cloth between the iron and the fabric.

Storage Tips

  • Hang Properly: Use padded or wide hangers to maintain the shape of the abaya.

  • Avoid Overcrowding: Store in a breathable garment bag to prevent wrinkles and dust buildup.

  • Keep Away from Moisture: Store in a cool, dry place to avoid mildew or fabric damage.
