Planning your abayas & kaftans order for Côte d'Ivoire

A abayas & kaftans order for Côte d'Ivoire should be planned backwards from the selling season. Hot and humid, with a rainy season from April to July; peaks follow end-of-year festivities, Tabaski, Easter and school terms. 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 Côte d'Ivoire 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 Abidjan and Bouaké, 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 Côte d'Ivoire

Because the climate in Côte d'Ivoire is hot, breathable fabrics move fastest. For abayas & kaftans we recommend Nida and crepe 130–180 GSM, with georgette and chiffon for overlays as a value alternative, and we keep the heavier options for the cooler months only.

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 for Côte d'Ivoire

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 Côte d'Ivoire 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.
  • Size: Length 50–60 inches in even sizes, free size and plus sizes up to 5XL; kids 4–14 years.
  • Design and branding: own embroidery and lace designs, custom sleeve and closure details, exclusive designs per market and private-label tags and packaging.

About our abayas & kaftans for Côte d'Ivoire

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.
