Just thought I would showcase some very beautiful abayaat that I personally CANNOT afford LOL. They are all by the Shehna Hussain (SH) label. Boxie is going to make herself an abaya like this red one with the crochet. I just love the abayaat with sheer panels and red fabric underneath and anything with red roses.The use of the fabric and the cut one this particular desgn is very unique. It reminds me of a 1920 Poiret evening coat.
Ooh la la. i love the long circles and this is probably my favourite cut of abaya.I like the pretty sleeves and the design but here in the Gulf, I've come to hate the front open style because very few girls are wearing them halal. They keep wearing jeans and tights and mini skirts with them instead of long skirts of jalabiyias and maxis. Ahhhhh, the horror, the horror!!!!!This is my absolute favourite abaya from the collections, because of the lace sleeves and the colours of the threads in the design.
This particular abaya is a wedding one (don't wear it at the malls girls!!!!) and costs a small fortune. But I love how it drapes almost like a sari when one sits.

but they are very beautiful.

I posted the designs because I thought they were pretty. It is not being judegmental to say that wearing a open abaya with tight clothing revealed underneath is not proper hijab. That is simply a fact. I do not reflect on the intentions or characters of the women themselves that choose to do so or do so out of ignorance for THAT is for Allah alone. Go bug someone else silly anon. Shoo fly, don't bother me.
I could see if maybe you werent already a Muslim.
Hmm, strange...but I have noticed there is def. stigma against western women married to Saudi's here. Everytime I have asked a Saudi women a question the first thing outta their mouths is asking whether I'm married to a Saudi. They give me this nasty, accusatory look too. When I say, uh nope...they chill out and help me.
It's so strange...I havent experienced this sort of behavior before.
fyi, there is a yahoo group for western women married to Saudi men. I have some friends on it, if u wanna join lemme know and I can give them a heads up. It's hard to join as they wanna keep it ONLY for western women married to Saudi men.
well, en'shallah things will get easier and you guys will get approval soon and you'll be able to come to KSA.
Thank you so very much for liking my work and for posting the collection. :)
it was very sweet of you to do this thank you so much and i would also like to add that i would have offered you a good deal if you liked them. theses are expensive cos of their hand embroidery...

I just received my Shehna Hussain abaya and it is fantastic. This is my first couture abaya from the ME. I really don't think she's pricey if you consider how much money we spend on poor quality abayas that need to be replaced every fortnight :)
She's reasonably priced, and will work with you on your budget, plus she has excellent customer service skills. Always listens to what you have to say :)
