Finding Your Perfect Fit
At Montaha Store, our garments are thoughtfully tailored to provide a loose, fluid drape that respects your comfort and modest values. Most of our contemporary designs feature a relaxed, non-clinging silhouette.
To find your ideal fit, we recommend comparing your body measurements against our size charts below. If you fall between sizes or prefer a cleaner, more tailored corporate look, we suggest sizing down. For any fabric or drape advice, please reach out to our London styling team at support@montahastore.com.

How to Measure Correctly
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your chest while keeping the measuring tape flat and parallel to the floor.
Abaya Length
Measure from the highest point of your shoulder down to your ankle bone.
Note: If you plan to wear your tailored pieces with high heels, we recommend adding 1 to 2 inches to your length requirement.
Sleeve Length
Our sleeves are cut with an intentional extra length to ensure wrists remain completely covered during natural arm movement.
