About Us

NIYAH Kaftan began with a passion for Abayas. I was obsessed with different materials and styling different designs. I could never find a good shade of yellow or pistachio Abaya, yes I said it, a yellow Abaya! So I decided to design my own, shortly after wearing both these colours, all of my friends asked me where they could also get one, and from there, NIYAH was born. I have since gone on to design several other designs using really popular colours and keeping them at an affordable price.

At NIYAH, we are big on giving back and always have been, which is why for every product sold; we use part of our profits to provide children in Africa with different items such as colouring books and pencils.

We specialise in Abayas, Kimonos and Kaftans, our collections are designed to offer versatile options for the contemporary wardrobe. Each piece embodies a fusion of tradition and modernity, ensuring that our customers feel both stylish and comfortable, whether they’re dressing for a special occasion or enjoying everyday wear.

Niyah: an Arabic word that means intention or purpose and can be thought of as a guiding light that illuminates the path of actions.
