Fancy Abayas are often made with costly fabrics, embellishments, pipping work and embroidery, so it's important to maintain their beauty. If you take care of your fancy Abaya, you may extend its life and keep it looking as good as new every time you wear it. You may express your own style and walk with pride. Keep your beautiful Abaya looking new and elegant by following the tips mentioned below.
Checking the tag:
First of all, check the tag to see whether the Abaya requires professional dry cleaning or if it can be maintained at home. You can tell whether your Abaya has to be dry-cleaned or not. Cleaning the Abaya without damaging the fabric or the decorations requires careful attention to the directions provided on the tag. For example, if you have Pink Abaya with Embellished Sleeves, to maintain the beads and stonework, it has to be dry cleaned.
Washing of Crepe Abayas for women
Crepe Abayas are so delicate that it is recommended that they be washed by hand to maintain their shape and quality. To avoid ruining your delicates, always wash them in cold water using a detergent made for that purpose. For example, if you have a Dark blue coloured Abaya for women, you may keep it looking as good as new for a very long time by washing it with a specific detergent designed for Abayas, such as Abaya Shampoo. For ironing, try to use a steam iron. You may also follow the recommendations included in our blog post titled Abaya Care in order to properly wash and store your Abaya.
Don’t neglect taking care of decorations:
If a luxurious Abaya has beadwork, piping work, and embroidery, drying the Abaya in a machine might loosen or harm the decorations. The decorations are less likely to be damaged and will remain in place if allowed to air dry. In case you have a fancy Abaya with beautiful minimal wavy embellishments, you can protect the embellishment by air drying.
Avoid Sun Exposure:
If you leave your Abaya out in the sun for an extended amount of time, the colors may fade. If you want to keep the color of your Abaya as long as possible, try not to leave it exposed to the sun. When not in use, keep it in a cold, dry, dark location.
Wear high-polished jewelry
Avoid wearing or handling your luxurious Abaya with anything that might snag or tear the fabric, such as jewelry. If you have an Abaya with Floral Bead Embellishments, avoid wearing sharp and pointed jewelry. Opt for smooth jewelry to avoid snagging or tearing the Abaya accidentally.
