Introduction
If you’ve ever shopped for abayas online, you’ve probably wondered:
“Should I choose an open abaya or a closed abaya?”
At Mulaabis, we believe the right abaya should match your lifestyle, comfort, and personal style. Let’s break it down in a simple way so you can decide what suits you best.
What Is an Open Abaya?
An open abaya is worn like a front-open coat and styled with an inner dress or top and trousers.
Why women love open abayas:
-
Easy to style and layer
-
Perfect for casual and formal looks
-
Gives a modern, elegant feel
-
Great for working women and outings
At Mulaabis, our open abayas are designed to be flowy, modest, and stylish—perfect for everyday wear.
What Is a Closed Abaya?
A closed abaya is worn as a single piece, just slip it on and go.
Why closed abayas are a classic choice:
-
Simple and effortless
-
Ideal for prayer, travel, and daily wear
-
Offers full coverage
-
Very comfortable and modest
Many women prefer closed abayas for their ease and timeless appeal.
