Thobe and Abaya Manufacturers

Thobe and abaya lines are judged on trim details: the button placket, the closure at the cuff, the zip under the sleeve or side seam, the decorative lace on the front panel and the stitch that holds it all flat. We supply buttons, zippers, trimming lace, metallic yarn, interlining and sewing thread to thobe and abaya manufacturers in Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf.

Pain Points

What Slows These Lines Down

  • Shirt buttons that arrive off-shade from the approved thobe collar and placket colour
  • A resin zipper and a nylon zipper supplied by different houses so the abaya closure is inconsistent between runs
  • Gold decoration trimming lace that varies in shade between one abaya front panel batch and the next
  • Metallic yarn that tears or loses shine on the embroidery machine during a long abaya production run
  • Embroidered panels puckering because the interlining behind them does not suit the fabric
  • Buttons zippers lace yarn and thread arriving on different dates while the line waits
Requirements
