About Raqiya
Why we started Raqiya
Raqiya started from something simple: a dress that covers properly, stays light in Egyptian heat, and works for the office and for errands without you having to think about it.
That is why every piece is cut loose, made from linen and cotton that breathes as you move, and cut and sewn here in Egypt.
The collection is only starting. Each piece goes up here once it is finished, and not before.
Styling
One dress, more than one look
Three ways to wear it, depending on your day.
- 01
For work
With classic shoes, a structured bag and a plain-coloured scarf.
- 02
For errands
With white trainers and a crossbody bag. Comfortable all day.
- 03
For going out
Simple jewellery and light summer sandals.
Find your size
All measurements are in centimetres. They are the dress's own measurements, laid flat, not body measurements, so compare them with a dress you already wear comfortably.

How it is made
Made in Egypt
Every piece is cut and sewn here, by people who know what clothes have to do in August. They go over the seams and the hems piece by piece.
