Fabrics and Materials Used in the Danteline Abaya

Three complementary fabrics are used in Maraya collection to create this abaya. Each one plays a specific role in the overall look, structure, and quality of the garment, while working together to create a balanced and elegant design.

1. Crepe Fabric

The main body of the abaya is made from high-quality crepe fabric. It has a beautiful drape and is relatively resistant to wrinkles. This makes the garment suitable for long-term use without easily losing its shape.

2. Velvet

Velvet is used in selected areas, such as the edges and collar, adding depth and visual appeal to the overall design.

3. Velvet Lace

Velvet-patterned lace is incorporated into parts of the body or sleeves, giving the abaya a delicate and refined finish.

Fusing for Better Structure and Shape

Fusing is used in areas such as the collar and front facing of the Danteline Abaya. This technique involves attaching a special layer to the back of the fabric using heat and pressure.This additional layer helps the collar and front of the garment maintain a neat, structured appearance while preventing them from becoming loose or losing their shape during wear. It also helps preserve the original shape of the collar and makes it more resistant to wrinkles caused by everyday use.The durability of the fused layer depends on how the garment is washed and cared for. Following the recommended care instructions can help prevent the layer from coming loose or forming bubbles over time.

Cut and Fit

The pattern of this abaya is based on a bias cut, meaning the fabric is cut at a 45-degree angle to the grain. This technique gives the fabric a natural degree of flexibility and allows it to drape smoothly over the body.The bias cut also provides greater freedom of movement while walking or sitting and helps prevent the garment from clinging too closely to the body. It gives the fabric more flexibility and creates softer, more fluid lines throughout the garment. However, the way the abaya drapes over the body may vary depending on the wearer’s size and proportions.

How Should You Care for and Wash the Danteline Abaya?

To maintain the quality of the fabrics and internal fused layers and prevent damage or changes in shape, follow these care instructions:

Always follow the care instructions provided on the garment’s care label.

• Since the abaya combines three different materials—crepe, velvet, and lace—as well as internal fusing, dry cleaning is the best choice.
• If permitted by the care label, gently hand wash the garment in cold water using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid rubbing, wringing, or squeezing the velvet sections and collar.
• Place the abaya on a suitable hanger and allow it to air-dry away from direct sunlight.
• When ironing, use a steam iron at a low temperature and keep it at an appropriate distance from the fabric. Do not place the iron directly on the velvet or apply pressure, as this may damage the velvet’s texture.
