Understanding Abaya Sizing — The Samra Salwa Way
Not sure if you’re a size 52 or 58? We understand—navigating abaya sizing can be a little confusing at first. But with just a little guidance, you’ll find your perfect fit with ease.
At Samra Salwa, our abayas are designed with flowing silhouettes and graceful proportions, tailored to fall effortlessly with your natural form. Our sizing is based primarily on the length of the garment, which correlates to your height in feet—ensuring both modest coverage and refined elegance.
How Does Abaya Sizing Work?
Abaya sizes typically refer to the length of the garment in inches. For example:
- If you are 5’0″, we recommend a size 50
- If you are 5’2″, a size 52 is ideal
- If you are 5’5″, a size 54 or 56 may suit you best
Our abayas are intentionally crafted for a modest, relaxed drape, allowing for both comfort and fluidity. If you are in between sizes, consider sizing up for added coverage or down for a slightly shorter look—depending on your styling preference.
Where Should My Abaya Fall?
Our design philosophy ensures that your abaya grazes the ankles for a poised, polished finish. Planning to wear heels? You may wish to opt for a slightly longer size for a more dramatic silhouette.
Can My Abaya Be Tailored?
Absolutely. Each Samra Salwa abaya is finished with a delicate running hem, allowing for subtle adjustments and personalized tailoring. Whether you’d like to shorten the length or make a refined alteration, our garments are made to adapt gracefully to you.
Still Unsure About Your Size?
Sizing can vary slightly across brands and styles. For this reason, we always recommend referring to our detailed size chart or reaching out to our client services team for a more personalized recommendation.
