Im wondering if there are any recommended places for buying abaya material and for tailors - I enjoy having my abaya custom made but not sure if this is possible.

Almosy all (if not all) abaya shops in Tayyaba, Deera, Owais, Naseem Ladies (these are all market names) offer customization/alteration services. And you'll find material there as well.

Brilliant! Shukran jazeelan -, thank you very much for that clarification and the market names

Plus there are plenty of Saudi women who have begun their own customized abaya businesses!  I have the card of a woman who does just mind-bogglingly beautiful, original work.

If I can find it, I'll PM the information to your! :)
