Before you choose

Measure a piece
you already love.

Lay a well-fitting abaya flat, smooth out the fabric and use a flexible measuring tape. Keep the tape straight without stretching the garment.

  1. Garment length

    Measure from the highest point of the shoulder beside the neckline down to the hem. Consider the shoes you intend to wear.

  2. Chest

    Measure straight across the garment from underarm to underarm. Double this flat measurement when comparing it with a full chest circumference.

  3. Sleeve

    Measure from the shoulder seam to the cuff. Dropped shoulders and different sleeve shapes can change how this measurement is taken.

SEEN ABAYAS — The size guide

Finding your perfect length.

Choose your abaya length using the SEEN size guide below. Sizes 54, 56 and 58 describe garment length in inches, rather than a UK dress size.

SEEN abaya lengths and suggested heights. Centimetre lengths are rounded.
SizeAbaya lengthSuggested height
5454 in / 137 cm5'1"–5'3"(155–160 cm)
5656 in / 142 cm5'4"–5'6"(163–168 cm)
5858 in / 147 cm5'7"–5'9"(170–175 cm)

Suggested heights are a guide. Your preferred hem length, footwear and the shape of each design can affect the fit. Check each product for available sizes and contact us for chest, sleeve or other measurements.

A little guidance

Between sizes?
Let's find your fit.

Length and body fit are different measurements. If you are between lengths, or need more room through the chest or sleeves, share the design and your measurements with our team so we can help you compare.
