How to Care for Your Stone-Embellished Abayas
To preserve the beauty of your abaya styles with stone:
- Always hand wash or dry clean.
- Store on padded hangers to avoid pressure on the stone areas.
- Avoid ironing directly over embellishments—use steam or press lightly from the inside.
Choosing Hijabs That Complement Stone Detailing
When styling your abaya, choose a hijab that matches the mood of the outfit:
- For bold stone abayas, go with a plain chiffon hijab to keep focus on the design.
- For subtle stone styles, match the shimmer with a satin or pearl-detailed hijab for extra harmony.

Why Modesty and Elegance Belong Together
Modest fashion isn’t about hiding beauty—it’s about presenting it with intention and dignity. Stone embellishments, when done tastefully, celebrate the idea that modesty can still shimmer. As the Prophet ﷺ said: “Indeed, Allah is beautiful and loves beauty.” [Sahih Muslim]
