Classic FAVOURITES
JALABIYAS (OR JELLABIYA) ARE A TRADITIONAL GARMENT RESEMBLING A THOBE BUT WITH A BROADER CUT, NO COLLAR AND LONGER AND WIDER SLEEVES. THEY ARE USUALLY COLOURFUL AND SOME HAVE DELICATE EMBROIDERY WORK OR SPARKLY DETAILS. THESE PIECES AND ANKLE-LENGTH DRESSES WITH LONG SLEEVES ARE WOMEN’S FAVOURITES FOR THEIR EASY-TO-WEAR QUALITY AND THE NUMEROUS PRINT DESIGNS AVAILABLE.

Two-Piece TYPES
IF YOU DON’T REALLY LIKE DRESSES, YOU CAN OPT FOR WIDE-LEGGED TROUSERS OR LONG SKIRTS WITH A LOOSE AND LONGER TOP THAT COVERS THE HIP AREA – OR CHOOSE A SHORTER JALABIYA TO WEAR WITH PANTS. TAILORED SUITS CAN ALSO FIT WELL HERE, TOGETHER WITH LUXURIOUS LOUNGEWEAR. THINK OF SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT (BOXY) CUTS – THE EYE-CATCHING DETAILS LIE IN PRINTS, FRILLS OR EMBELLISHING ELEMENTS.
