This abaya pattern is so beautiful and striking. Looks like one of Amina Quraishi's pieces of artwork. The other image this abaya gives is walking through the gorgeous coloumns of Sheikh Zayed's Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
The Nour Abaya is anything but basic although they were created to be the first thing you grab from your closet when you are looking for that perfect fitting piece to toss on over leggings or a tapered pant. Modestly cut, simple and sophisticated in design.
This version is made in very unique light weight rayon challis voile, which makes a beautiful and sophisticated drape and feel.
The design of this open abaya has been in the works for months and it is finally here after a careful and intentional process by Michaela and her team of seamstresses! Slow purposeful fashion requires thoughtful consideration of many factors with the woman and her needs at the heart of it.
Super comfy and easy to wear with some subtle but sophisticated design elements.
