As salamu alaykum Eyes Serene, Shukr Online states that they use the highest quality fabric and also close to natural. Which is why their material is not flowing or non-clingy. In fact, mostly synthetic material such as crepe used on most abayas from Kuwait, Jordan and Syria are the ones that flow and non-clingy to the body.

Since Shukr uses cotton on their abayas, they have a high chance of shrinkage and clingy to your body if you have curves. That's why I thought twice before buying their abayas.

I hope that was helpful.

Yeah, I agree with you there. They are reliable and the quality is good. And I really wish they'd use different fabrics, too... My friend buys their stuff and I don't like the heavy cotton/linen dresses, personally. I want a dress to have a softer drape/flow. They had a dress for a while, I think it was gorgette or maybe rayon, and almost every size sold out right away (before I got there... I would have FOUND a way to afford that dress!)

I tend to piece together my outfits from modest clothes at the mall but I do like Shukr for the "staples" like if i need a black skirt for winter or a white cotton shirt in the summer I'll look there first, because the quality is unsurpassed and the service very reliable. I interviewed the owner and designer of Shukr (it's on my blog catergories under "interviews") and asked them about why they don't use more patterns and different fabrics because i think that's what they need.

Assalamu alaikom,
I want to like Shukr but I just don't... Which is probably good because I can't afford it and when I am interested in something, my size or the nice colors are always gone by the time I see it. LOL
