Product Description:
Named Raqsat Al-Daw—Arabic for “The Dance of Light”—this abaya captures the poetic motion of dawn’s first rays meeting the earth. Rendered in luminous Indian silk, the outer layer features a golden ochre tone that evokes sunlit warmth, contrasted beautifully by a royal violet silk inner dress that deepens the composition. The back panel is adorned with printed taffeta, mirroring the elegance of shifting light across a moving silhouette.

This piece was designed to feel alive—to shimmer, to flow, to glow—as if tracing the path of light in motion. It is a visual metaphor, where texture and tone choreograph the very essence of grace.
