Shemagh, ghutra and abaya: heritage fashion gift ideas
How to choose a shemagh, thobe, abaya or kaftan as a gift: size, fabric and occasion.
Heritage fashion is a gift appreciated at festivals, occasions and trips, and it suits anyone who values authenticity.
For men: a shemagh or ghutra in the traditional colours (red and white, black and white) is a safe gift, and a classic white thobe suits someone whose size you know. Check the pattern and the colour the person prefers.
For women: an embroidered abaya or a colourful kaftan suits occasions, evenings, Ramadan and the festivals. Pay attention to size and length, and to the embroidery, which is best washed gently.
For care: read the washing instructions on each piece, keep embroidered items folded away from friction, and hang abayas and thobes to keep their shape.
