Washing advice

The maintenance of an abaya requires care and attention to maintain the quality and elegance of the abaya. Here are some tips for maintaining an abaya.

Hand wash or delicate cycle
It is recommended to wash the abaya by hand or on a delicate cycle in the washing machine with cold water. Use a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics to preserve the color and texture of the abaya.

Wash inside out
Turn the abaya inside out before washing to prevent the outside of the fabric from being exposed to direct friction and abrasion.

Avoid bleach and strong chemicals
Avoid using bleach and harsh chemicals when washing the abaya as they can damage the fabric and fade the color.

Gentle drying
Hang the abaya on a clothes hanger to dry, preferably away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. Avoid using a dryer as this may cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric.

Steaming
If necessary, steam the abaya to smooth the fabric. It is best to use a steam generator or hand steamer for this. Avoid ironing decorative details or embroidery to avoid damage.

Storage
Store the abaya in a cool, dry place, preferably hanging on a clothes hanger to prevent wrinkles. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight as this may discolour the fabric.

By following this careful approach, you can extend the life of the abaya and ensure that it always looks elegant and well-groomed.
