How an abaya
is measured.

Abaya length is not dress size. We cut 52 to 60. Measure from the high point of the shoulder to where you want the hem to rest — usually the top of the shoe.

Length

52–60. House sample is 56. Petite frames often take 52–54; tall frames 58–60.

Sleeve

Must cover the wrist bone. No fashion crop. If you like a hiding hand, say so in the note.

Overlay

The Archive Coat is cut to cover the abaya underneath completely. Order the same length as the piece beneath.
