ModestBD offers a curated collection of abayas designed for Bangladeshi women — including everyday open-front nursing abayas, maternity kaftan abayas, Umrah abayas, and occasion-wear luxury abayas with embroidery or handcraft bead embellishments. Every style is designed with full coverage and modest silhouettes in mind. We also carry matching inner garments and accessories to complete the look.

Our khimar range includes short khimars (hip-length), long khimars (knee-length and full-length), Salat khimars, and attached niqab-style khimars with hidden pockets. We also carry classic French-cut Jilbabs without niqab. Available in georgette, CEY, linen, cherry, and premium cotton blends — all designed for breathability in Bangladesh's warm climate.

Yes. All garments at ModestBD are designed with full-coverage principles in mind — non-transparent, non-form-fitting fabrics, and modest silhouettes throughout. We prioritise styles that meet Islamic guidelines on dress for women, without compromising on comfort or everyday wearability.

Our garments are crafted from breathable, heat-appropriate fabrics including nida, crepe, cotton blends, jersey, and linen-mix. We specifically source fabrics that remain comfortable during Bangladeshi summers and humid monsoon seasons. Every product listing specifies the fabric composition so you can choose confidently.

Absolutely. ModestBD is committed to dressing every body. Our abayas and khimars are available from XS through 3XL, and we offer extended-length options for taller women.

For everyday wear, pair a classic black or neutral abaya with a matching short khimar or a cotton hijab in a complementary tone. Flat sandals or modest sneakers complete the look for commuting, errands, or campus. For a more polished office or occasion style, choose a flared silk abaya with a pressed inner dress and low block heels.

If you are new to wearing khimar, we recommend starting with our georgette knee-length khimar — it is lightweight, easy to put on without pins, stays in place throughout the day, and pairs beautifully with both abayas and modest casual wear. It is our most popular choice among new wearers and students.
