SAVINGS

Our kimono dress collection is made up of modest kimono-style abayas. They are open at the front, with wide sleeves and a relaxed, flowing line. Worn over your outfit, a kimono dress gives you the ease of a kimono with the coverage of an abaya.

What Defines a Kimono-Style Abaya

The cut

A kimono abaya is built from simple, straight lines. Wide sleeves, a relaxed shoulder and an open front create a loose, flowing shape that skims the body. Many kimono dress styles can be tied at the waist with a sash for a more defined look.

Fabric and finish

The collection covers a range of fabrics. Chiffon gives a floaty, layered look. Cotton-linen blends suit a relaxed day. Ice silk crepe drapes smoothly. Beaded lace and embroidery add detail for dressier occasions, and a few casual pieces use patchwork.

How to wear it

Wear it open over a dress, or over a long-sleeved top with a skirt or trousers. Tie the sash for shape, or leave it loose for a relaxed drape. Our cotton linen kimono abaya is an easy place to start for casual wear.

FAQs

What is the difference between a kimono abaya and an open abaya?

A kimono abaya has the wide, straight sleeves and relaxed, robe-like shape of a kimono. An open abaya can be any style that opens at the front. Kimono styles are usually looser and more flowing.

Is a kimono dress modest?

The abayas here are made for modest dressing. How much coverage you get depends on what you wear underneath, so choose long sleeves and a full-length layer.

Which kimono dress fabric is best for warm weather?

Chiffon and cotton-linen blends. They are the lightest choices and feel breathable over light clothing.

Should I tie the sash?

It is your choice. Tying it defines the waist and gives a more structured look. Leaving it open gives a relaxed, flowing drape.

Are these one size?

Several styles are one size, so use the measurements on the product page to check that the fit suits you.
