After Saudi Designer, Eman Joharjy revolutionized the Saudi abaya, now Branding Stylist Zahar Al-Sayed and her Artist Fiance Ahmed Angawi have launched their “The Abaya Factory”. A factory that specializes in manufacturing abayas that suit the modern girl’s needs and lifestyle.
Now the abaya can be transformed into a jacket changing the whole outfit effortlessly. This is especially useful for the on the run girl that travels often outside the kingdom. “Our abaya was a solution for people traveling from A to B without really thinking what outfit they have to change into,” Al-Sayed told Arab News.
While Angawi spoke of the utility Zahar talked about the inspiration, she said“real women inspire us. Women’s empowerment, in general, is one of our targets. We got our inspiration from women’s needs.”.
