Butterfly Abaya
At Queen Modesty, we get it. Finding modestwear that actually feels comfortable and looks good shouldn't be hard, but it usually is. That's
precisely why we’re obsessed with butterfly abayas. There’s something about their flow, the sleeves, and the shape—it just works every time.
And if you’re like most of our customers, you’re probably juggling a hundred things at once. Uni, work, prayer, family, social life, basically the whole package. So when we designed this collection, we had you in mind. Real life. Real modesty. Real movement.
These are not the type of abayas you wear once and forget. These are the ones you end up reaching for all week because they’re just that easy.
So What Even Is a Butterfly Abaya?
If you haven’t tried one yet — trust us, you’re going to wonder what took you so long. A butterfly abaya dress is loose, drapey, and flows from the shoulder to the wrist in one smooth line. Some call them batwing abayas or wide sleeve abayas (same thing, really), and they’re all about that effortless, elegant silhouette. No buttons, no stiff structure, no weird bunching at the shoulders, just a loose abaya that falls beautifully, no matter your height or shape. You don’t need to adjust it all day long, and it doesn’t cling anywhere you don’t want it to.
It’s one of those abaya styles that looks fancy but feels like a cosy throw-on. And we’re here for it.
Black, White, and a Few Unexpected Favourites
Now let’s talk colours. You already know the black butterfly abaya is non-negotiable. You can wear it to literally any event. Maybe it’s work, weddings, or late-night chai runs; it just works. It’s classy, minimal, and a lifesaver when you’re unsure about what to wear.
But don’t sleep on the white butterfly abaya either. We’ve had so many customers come back saying it’s their new favourite for Jummah, Nikah events, or even just when they want to feel a little more put together. It’s soft, clean, and looks fantastic with pastel hijabs or gold accessories.
And for those of you who love a bit of colour, we’ve added some earthy tones – think olive, dusty rose, and warm taupe – because modest doesn’t have to mean boring.
Flowing Garments That Feel Like a Breath of Fresh Air
We know how hot and heavy some abayas can feel, especially when worn over layers. That’s why we’ve picked fabrics that actually breathe.
Our butterfly sleeve abayas are light yet sturdy. Structured enough to give you shape, but soft enough to move with you. Perfect for running errands, praying in, or even hosting without feeling like you’re wrapped in a duvet.
And if you’re someone who loves wearing Islamic clothing that doesn’t scream “occasion wear”, these are for you. It’s effortless, modest fashion that doesn’t take twenty minutes to style.
Offering Easy-to-Wear Butterfly Abayas
You don’t need to be a stylist to make a butterfly abaya look good. That’s the beauty of it. Throw on a white butterfly abaya with a nude inner dress and your favourite sandals — done. Or belt a black butterfly abaya at the waist for a dinner look that feels both elevated and comfortable.
Add a pop of colour with a printed hijab, or keep it clean with head-to-toe neutrals. Whatever your vibe, the butterfly-style abaya plays along. You can dress it up with jewellery and heels, or keep it super simple for daily wear.
And yes, they’re great for pregnancy too. The cut is naturally roomy, so if you’re expecting or prefer something non-restrictive, this is one of the few abaya styles that doesn’t need “maternity” in the name to work.
