Why Azerbaijan needs abayas & kaftans
Azerbaijan combines an oil-funded retail boom in Baku with a transit position between Russia, Iran, Turkey and Central Asia, so importers serve both local shops and onward trade.
Abayas and kaftans are the core of modest fashion, with demand concentrated before Ramadan and Eid and orders placed months ahead.
Retail chains & stores in Azerbaijan
Retail chains, department stores and independent shops in Baku, Ganja and Sumgait restock with imported shirts, T-shirts, jeans and kidswear, and increasingly ask for private-label ranges.
In Azerbaijan, department stores and shopping-mall brands buy abayas & kaftans from us mainly for boutiques and multi-brand fashion stores and diaspora and ethnic-wear retailers.

Planning your abayas & kaftans order for Azerbaijan
A abayas & kaftans order for Azerbaijan should be planned backwards from the selling season. Four seasons with cold, windy winters in Baku; winter lines are ordered by spring and spring-summer lines by autumn; peaks follow Novruz (March), the school year and the New Year. For abayas & kaftans specifically, orders peak before Ramadan and Eid, placed 4–5 months in advance; kaftans sell around summer and holiday seasons. Our lead time is 40–60 days; embellished styles can take 60–75 days, plus sea transit of about 25–40 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of abayas & kaftans in Azerbaijan include modest-fashion boutiques in the Gulf and Europe, wholesalers supplying Ramadan and Eid stock, online modest-fashion brands and retailers serving African Muslim communities. Around Baku, Ganja and Sumgait, they usually order 200–300 pieces per design; embroidered styles from 150 pieces and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan has distinct seasons, so we split abayas & kaftans into two ranges: lighter fabrics such as nida and crepe 130–180 GSM for spring and summer, and heavier options such as jersey for hijabs for autumn and winter.
Sizes: Length 50–60 inches in even sizes, free size and plus sizes up to 5XL; kids 4–14 years. Colours: Black, navy, taupe, olive, burgundy and neutrals, with pastel kaftan prints.
Abayas & Kaftans made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make abayas & kaftans in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Azerbaijan market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: Black, navy, taupe, olive, burgundy and neutrals, with pastel kaftan prints.

About our abayas & kaftans
Indian factories in Delhi, Jaipur, Mumbai and Surat combine fine crepe and nida with machine and hand embroidery. The best-selling styles are plain black abayas with refined details, which suit volume orders and fast reorders.
Opacity and drape are the quality tests that matter. We check each fabric for opacity in light, confirm that the abaya hangs correctly on a model, and verify that embroidery does not pucker the fabric.
