Local notes

Ordering from Abu Dhabi

Sizes, customs rules and sending fabric from the UAE: ordering from the UAE.

Workwear with full sleeves

A straight kameez with full sleeves, cut to the calf, makes a calm, dependable office suit. If you prefer a co-ord, a band-collar kurta with full sleeves and matching straight trousers works just as well. Cambric keeps a crisp line through a long day under air conditioning, and our notes on office kurtas have more ideas.

Corniche humidity and winter evenings

Summer on the coast is humid as well as hot, so lawn is the fabric most people reach for. Pale lawn can show through in bright sun, and a cotton lining solves that without adding much warmth; this guide explains when lining is worth it.

From December, evenings on the Corniche or a weekend in the desert can feel cool. Linen or khaddar, or a velvet dupatta for a dinner, makes a winter outfit feel right.
