Day to Night Outfits: Floaty Florals








With December being the month of holidays and get-togethers, we wanted to bring you an ensemble that would take you from day to night with minimal effort, without wardrobe dilemma.   Choosing versatile pieces that can be easily dressed up or down is the key for day to night outfits. They are a perfect blank canvas for personal expression. With an addition of few stylish accessories trending this season, you are good to go. 

 Just to show how easy it is, we have paired one our favourite this season the Efflorescence Abaya with a fashionable blanket coat. The high street is bursting with stylish cover-ups, perfect for keeping out the cold. Capes and oversized blankets are the ultimate throw on and go this season. Make sure to take advantage of this trend. It is an absolute for all the modest dressers out there!

The Efflorescence Abaya has a classic cut and features a mixture of black velvet and silver ribbed flowers. Styled with beautiful jewel pumps and soft black tote makes this a practical yet chic winter look. Shimmer your way into the evening by simply swapping for heels and a sequenced bag  for an on trend evening look. Sequins and embellished detailing is a huge trend this season. Don't be afraid to add sparkle to your black gowns.

Cold weather doesn't mean it is all doom and gloom for our winter wardrobes. We are loving the current trends and with the sales on early we cannot wait to hit the high street. We hope to have left you feeling fabulous both day and night with our Abayas :)

Umbrella Cuts at Abaya Central

 

This season we introduced a new edge to our collection with the Umbrella cut. This cut addresses sophistication and style in one. Made from light, silky flowy material they features a gathering at the neck that widens at the bottom with full flare. Whether the occasion calls for Formal, Informal or Elegant casual, these abayas certainly play the part. The collection ranges from simple to tailored and contemporary designs. 
Browse our collection and step in style! www.abaya-central.com  
 
 
 



Golden Umbrella - Abaya UK
 






 
Golden Umbrella

"..The contemporary gold and black pattern on the arms adds to the elegance, making this abaya essential for your wardrobe. "
 




 





The satin trim on this abaya accentuates the tailoring which takes the abaya from a classic abaya cut with a stylish v neck to a flared out umbrella cut from the waist down. The large amount of material used to make the umbrella cut really does give this abaya a flow and air of luxury. This abaya is an exquisite example of subtle elegance....

Abayas & Belts

If you've been following our latest collection, you would know Belts are IN.
Belted abayas are the latest trend in the UAE. If you are like us - figure conscious (yes even in an abaya!) then fear not, belted abayas have something for everyone. Depending on the look you opt for, here is a brief guide.


Built in Abaya belts: 


Belts are attached inside at the waist. Invisible to the eye, the belts are perfect to create the desired silhouette.  Simply tie the ribbon like material around the waist to have an hour-glass, loose like figure. These types of belts are comfortable to wear, do not loosen and stay firmly tied.





       Abayas :     Turquoise Jade & Snow Flake



Belts over Abayas: 


While belts are stylish accessories that can transform even the most boring outfit, the right belt can also accentuate the body shape beautifully.  Positioning the belt and different width may suit one body type and not the other. Depending on the structure of the body, belt solutions are many. It always pays to experiment with such abayas.

Our Laced Gold Abaya. has all the features of a statement piece. This abaya comes with a lavish belt made from dull gold satin & black sheer lace.  Each belt loop appears with matching crystals

Abaya Central Style Guide: Afternoon Tea

Luxury Afternoon Tea in London 

London's best loved tradition. Finding places to have Afternoon Tea is one of my favourite past time. Situated in the heart of Mayfair, the Dorchester is a much loved place to experience afternoon tea at its finest. Afternoon Tea is usually a mixture of savoury and sweet delights. A selection of finger sandwiches, delicate french pastries and cakes, warm scones accompanied with strawberry jam and clotted cream. The Dorchester is known to have their own blends of rare and special teas. The Tea is served on the Promenade (as seen in the picture below), a rich warm seating area. The entrance of the Promenade is celebrated by grand fresh flowers. The Promenade is marked with large marble columns, palms and lush Golden(ish) couches.
For a stunning "after-hours" ultra chic, informal dining glamour look we have paired the following 
 



Authentic Gold Abayas uk at the Dorchester



Authentic Gold - Abaya Central £70
 Michael Kors Tan Berkley Embossed Leather Clutch - stylebop.com $287
 Joyce Shoes - Coast £75
  Earring Boutique Mystical Ring (made with swarovski elements)  - Next £65

Helping Mahlica To Walk

Our Aim


As well as providing unique abayas, Abaya Central was formed with the aim of supporting as many charitable organisations as possible. With all the support we have received from you guys since our launch, we were able to make our first donation.

"Mahlica is a beautiful 7 year old girl from London. She likes the same things as all little girls but she is different in one way – she has a medical condition meaning she can't walk, is in pain and is deteriorating... "

Atif Ajab, Mahlica's father is raising money for life changing operations that will help his daughter to walk. https://www.justgiving.com/Mahlica
