An abaya is a loose-fitting, full-length garment traditionally worn by women in some Middle Eastern countries. It is often made from lightweight fabric and comes in various colors, although black is the most common. The abaya is designed to provide modesty and comfort while allowing for ease of movement. Typically worn over regular clothing, the abaya can be paired with a hijab or other head coverings to complete the outfit. While it is a traditional garment, modern designs may incorporate embellishments, patterns, and different styles, reflecting both cultural heritage and contemporary fashion trends.
