Fabric library
Fabric decides drape, opacity, comfort and price. Start here before you choose a style — changing the fabric later resets sampling.
Chiffon fabric for wholesale hijab and abaya ranges
Chiffon is the lightest fabric in the range and the one buyers most often get wrong, because it is sheer by design. This page sets out what it feels like, where it needs lining, and which products it belongs in.
Cotton voile fabric for tudung bawal and hijab ranges
Cotton voile is the traditional fabric behind the square tudung bawal, and it behaves quite differently from the knit and woven hijab fabrics sold beside it. This page explains the feel, the creasing, the printing and what to confirm per order.
Crepe fabric for wholesale abayas, dresses and sets
Crepe is the fabric buyers choose when the abaya has to look tailored rather than soft. This page explains what it feels like, how it holds a shape, what to confirm before sampling, and which styles it suits.
Jersey fabric for wholesale hijab and everyday modest wear
Jersey is the lowest-care fabric in the range and the easiest hijab to sell to a customer who has never worn one. This page covers what it feels like, how the stretch affects sizing, and what to confirm before you order.
Linen blend fabric for wholesale abayas and summer modest wear
A linen blend is what a buyer chooses when the collection should look and feel textile-led rather than synthetic. This page covers the dry hand, the texture, the creasing you have to accept, and which abaya styles suit it.
Modal fabric for wholesale hijab and modest ranges
Modal is the hijab fabric buyers reach for when they want a soft, fluid hand and a price point above plain jersey. Here is what it feels like, how it behaves in a hijab, and what to confirm before ordering.
Nida fabric for wholesale abayas and modest wear
Nida is the fabric most buyers picture when they picture an abaya: matte, opaque and fluid, with the least care requirement of the common abaya cloths. This page answers the questions you would otherwise only settle by ordering a sample.
Satin fabric for wholesale occasion abayas and modest wear
Satin is a weave, not a fibre, and that single fact explains most of the mistakes buyers make with it. This page covers the sheen, the drape, the lining question, and how to use satin without turning a range into a care problem.
Viscose fabric for wholesale modest dresses and sets
Viscose is the fabric behind a soft, fluid garment that still looks considered — the middle ground between a matte everyday cloth and an occasion satin. This page explains what it feels like, how it creases, and how to buy it without surprises.
Why this page exists
Most supplier sites show a color card and stop. That tells you what the fabric looks like and nothing about whether it will sell in your market. Here each fabric page answers the questions a buyer actually asks: how it feels, whether it is see-through, whether it creases, which season it suits, whether it takes embroidery or printing, and which product it is normally used for.
About the numbers on fabric pages
Weight and composition ranges vary between mills and batches. Where a figure is not confirmed for your order, the page says so rather than publishing a number we cannot hold to. Send your requirement and we will confirm the specification that applies.
Frequently asked questions
Nida is the standard for everyday and formal abayas: matte, opaque and fluid. Crepe is used where a more structured drape is wanted, and satin or a linen blend where the abaya is positioned as a premium piece.
Modal and jersey are the most forgiving: they hold shape without slipping and need little ironing. Chiffon is chosen for a lighter look and is usually layered with an underscarf. Cotton voile is the traditional choice for tudung bawal.
Yes. Buyer-supplied fabric can be used, and sampling follows the same approval process so that the bulk order matches your material.
