Abeer wa Shams

Abeer wa Shams (عبير و شمس) is an Omani abaya and kimono brand with a shop at Souq Asad in Al Khoud. The name translates as “Fragrance and Sun” — which gives you a fair idea of the aesthetic. The brand sells abayas and kimonos, and given the location in a local souq rather than a mall, the pricing tends to be more accessible than boutique brands. It’s worth a visit if you’re looking for something a bit more local and independent than the big abaya chains. Their Instagram (@abeerwashams) is the best place to see the current range before making the trip.
