PYRAMIDS WHITE ABAYA

The Mustafa is a celebration of craftsmanship in its purest form — rich with texture, heritage, and the quiet beauty of things made slowly by hand.

At the heart of the piece is the handwoven cotton ikat, created using a centuries-old resist-dyeing technique where each thread is individually tie-dyed before weaving begins. The result is a pattern that feels alive with movement and depth — softly blurred at the edges, imperfect in the most beautiful way, carrying the unmistakable character of true artisan work.

Set against wholesome black European linen, the ikat becomes the soul of the garment. Bold yet grounded, intricate yet effortless. The contrast between the softness of the linen and the rhythmic geometry of the handwoven textile gives the Mustafa its quiet presence — a piece that feels deeply rooted in culture while remaining timeless and easy to wear.

The silhouette drapes with our signature ease: relaxed, fluid, and intentionally unhurried. Designed for everyday wear yet carrying the feeling of something rare, the Mustafa moves effortlessly between simplicity and statement. It is the kind of garment that invites closer attention — not through excess, but through detail, texture, and story.

There is warmth in knowing where something comes from. In seeing the artisan’s hand within the weave. The natural variations in the ikat are preserved intentionally, honouring the slow processes and generations of craftsmanship behind every thread.

Handcrafted to order in Waddesdon, England, Mustafa is created thoughtfully using mindful fabrics and heritage textiles selected for their beauty, integrity, and longevity.

Made for those who value craftsmanship not as decoration, but as something deeply felt.

What we did: All the materials used have been hand selected carefully for their high quality and character. IKAT takes months to create, and it has taken us a few years to get our hands on this cloth again.  We sourced this directly from artisans in India. 

Prior to production, the cotton has had a delicate hand wash with salt and vinegar to lock in the dyes. The fabric is then line dried and then checked thoroughly. The washing process takes 24 hours to ensure the cloth is ready to be turned into your beautiful abaya.

Any imperfections are natural characteristics of the materials and not considered as faults, but the beauty of the artisans' craftsmanship.
