Jilbab: The correct Islamic term for an overgarment that is worn over one’s clothing. Nowadays this refers to a coat style of garment, derived from Turkey and the other Levant countries. This may be traditionally be perceived as a cloaks type garment that is worn from head to toe.

Abaya: this is a garment that is similar to jilbab as a style of an overgarment.  But, one can get head or overhead abayas that are worn from the top of the head while giving a much higher covering. These tend to be sized by just the length. Most of the bays are not well sized and the sleeves may a bit too short. These are sized by the length and they can fit up to a UK 14/US 10 loosely. If one is in doubt about the measurements, one needs to contact the seller. Abayas are also available in flashy colours and designs having embroidery and the look of the traditional Arabic dresses.
