Top Questions Customers Ask About Abayas: Insights from Anaqa Inspired
At Anaqa Inspired, we take pride in offering high-quality, stylish abayas that our customers love. But running an abaya business comes with its own set of challenges—and some truly wild questions! In this blog, we’ll address some of the most common (and surprising) questions we receive and explain why we operate the way we do. If you've ever wondered about our pricing, discounts, or sourcing, this one’s for you.
1. "Why Are Your Abayas So Expensive?"
Let’s tackle this head-on. We often get asked why our abayas are more expensive than those you might find in street markets or fast-fashion stores. The answer lies in the superior customer experience quality and craftsmanship we provide.
At Anaqa Inspired, we use high quality materials, such as Premium Nida and luxury Crepes, which are carefully sourced to ensure durability and comfort. Our abayas are designed to last, unlike cheaper alternatives that may lose their shape or fade after a few washes. Additionally, we invest in:
- Professional Stitching: Each abaya is meticulously stitched with precision and care, ensuring a perfect fit and exceptional durability that stands out in quality. Our Embellished Abaya’s are delicately hand sewn showcasing exquisite attention to detail and craftmanship that sets them apart.
- Quality Control: Ensuring each and every abaya meet high standards thorough rigorous quality checks
- Marketing and Packaging: We prioritise providing our customers with the best shopping experience, starting with professional, high-quality images that showcase each abaya accurately and beautifully. To elevate the unboxing experience, we package your abaya in a branded box, carefully wrapped in tissue paper, ensuring every delivery feels personal and special.
- Returns and Exchanges: From professional packaging to offering 14-day returns, we go the extra mile to create a premium shopping experience.
Quality abayas are an investment. While they may cost a little more, they are worth every penny when it comes to style, comfort, and longevity. At Anaqa Inspired, our pricing reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality abayas, ethical sourcing, and an exceptional customer experience.
2. "I Can Get the Same Abaya Cheaper in Dubai"
This is one of the most common comments we hear, and we get it—Dubai is known for its vibrant markets and competitive prices. However, what might look like the “same abaya” often isn’t.
Here’s why:
- Material Differences: Many cheaper abayas use lower-grade fabrics that are less breathable, wrinkle easily, or feel rough on the skin. At Anaqa Inspired, we prioritise premium fabric that feels luxurious and comfortable.
- Ethical Sourcing: We ensure that our fabrics and manufacturing processes are ethically sourced. Cheaper abayas might not meet the same standards.
· Convenience Without the Hidden Costs: While abayas may seem cheaper in Dubai, the additional expenses—like plane tickets, accommodation, and customs taxes—quickly add up. At Anaqa Inspired, we eliminate those extra costs by bringing premium-quality abayas directly to your doorstep. Our goal is to provide you with the perfect balance of convenience, quality, and value, saving you time, effort, and money.
· Quality You Can Trust: Many abayas sold in Dubai's souks are priced low because they often compromise on fabric quality and craftsmanship. At Anaqa Inspired, we prioritise premium fabrics and strict quality control to ensure our abayas are durable, comfortable, and worth every penny. A cheaper abaya might not last beyond a few wears, but ours are designed to stand the test of time."
· Designed for You, Delivered to You: Unlike abayas from souks, which are mass-produced without consistency, our designs are carefully curated and tailored to meet our customers' needs. Plus, you don’t need to travel halfway across the world or worry about the quality—you can trust that Anaqa Inspired delivers excellence right to your door.
· Transparent Pricing Reflecting Value: It’s true you might find cheaper abayas in Dubai, but what sets us apart is the value we offer. With Anaqa Inspired, you’re not just paying for an abaya—you’re investing in premium materials, professional craftsmanship, and a seamless shopping experience without the added expenses of travel or customs.
We bring you ethically sourced, expertly tailored abayas directly to your doorstep, ensuring exceptional value and a shopping experience that goes beyond expectations. Choosing Anaqa Inspired means choosing style, durability, and peace of mind—without the hassle of international trips or uncertain quality.
3. "What’s the Last Price? Can I Have a Discount?"
Ah, the age-old bargaining question. While we understand that negotiating is common in many cultures, we price our abayas fairly and transparently to reflect their value. Here’s why:
- Fair Pricing: Our prices are carefully calculated to cover the cost of materials, labor, packaging, and running a business while keeping them accessible to our customers.
- Discounts Already Included: We often run seasonal promotions and offer loyalty rewards through our Anaqa Inspired Rewards Club, where you can earn points for discounts.
- Sustainable Practices: Offering deep discounts would compromise our ability to maintain ethical sourcing and high-quality standards.
That said, we do appreciate our customers and occasionally offer special discounts during events like Ramadan or Eid. But rest assured, every penny you spend with us goes toward ensuring you receive a premium product.
4. "Why Can’t You Give Free Delivery for All Orders?"
We love making our customers happy, but offering free delivery on every order isn’t always feasible. Shipping costs can vary depending on location, and smaller orders often don’t cover these expenses.
To keep things fair, we offer free shipping on orders over £100, allowing our customers to enjoy the benefit when purchasing multiple items. For smaller orders, we charge only what’s necessary to ensure your abayas arrive quickly and safely.
5. "Can You Copy This Design I Found Online?"
While we’re flattered that customers trust us to replicate designs, we value originality and creativity. At Anaqa Inspired, we take pride in creating unique abaya designs that reflect our brand’s ethos. Copying other designs not only undermines our creative process but also violates ethical practices in the fashion industry.
However, we love hearing your feedback and suggestions. If you have design ideas or styles you’d like to see, feel free to share them with us—we’re always open to inspiration!
6. "Can I Return or Exchange My Abaya After Wearing It?"
We understand that online shopping can be tricky, especially when it comes to fit and style. That’s why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return unworn items for a refund or store credit.
However, once an abaya has been worn, it can’t be returned for hygiene reasons. To help you make the right choice before purchasing, we provide:
- Detailed Size Guides
- High-Quality Images
- Customer Support Chat for any questions you may have.
