Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha
Eid outfit for men
On the morning of Eid, tradition is to wash, wear perfume and put on your finest clothes before the prayer. Here is how to choose your qamis, from the mosque to the family visits.
For the prayer: white
White remains the most worn outfit on the morning of Eid: understated and bright, it suits the prayer as well as the family photos. Our Emirati qamis comes in pure white and cream white, in an opaque fabric that stays modest even in white.
For the visits: colour
The afternoon is spent visiting family and around the table. Midnight blue and purple add a festive touch without losing restraint; black, dressier, suits the evening meals.
For the whole day: the loose cut
Between the prayer, the visits and the children, Eid is a long day. The Mecca qamis, in a loose cut and premium fabric, gives complete freedom of movement, in grey or blue.
Getting your outfit ready
Order early. Your order is prepared within 2 to 3 working days, then delivered in 5 to 10 working days depending on the destination: the product page shows the estimated delivery date for your country. The Ramadan and Eid dates help you plan ahead.
Choose the right length. A qamis falls just above the ankle: our size guide and the “Find my size” button give you the size and the length.
Iron it the night before. On a low setting, inside out, then leave it on a hanger until the morning.
Complete the outfit. A keffiyeh, a prayer cap, leather sandals and a perfume: tradition also recommends wearing perfume on the day of Eid.
Giving a qamis for Eid
A qamis is one of the most appreciated Eid gifts: useful, meaningful, and worn from the morning of the celebration. To get it right, find out his height and build, or contact us and we will help you choose. Exchanges are possible within 14 days for unworn items. And to go with it, create an Eid Mubarak card with his name.
Frequently asked questions
The Eid outfit: your questions
What should a man wear for Eid?
Tradition recommends wearing your finest clothes, clean and modest. The qamis remains the most common choice: it suits the prayer, can be worn all day and looks refined. White is the most traditional, but any understated colour works.
Which qamis colour should I choose for Eid?
No colour is required. White and cream white are the most worn for the prayer; midnight blue, purple or grey work very well for the visits; black, dressier, is best kept for the evening meals.
When should I order to receive it before Eid?
Allow 2 to 3 working days for preparation, then 5 to 10 working days for delivery depending on the destination. We advise ordering two to three weeks before the celebration; the expected Ramadan and Eid dates are on our dedicated page.
Is the qamis required for the Eid prayer?
No. Any clean and modest outfit is fine. The qamis is a choice of tradition and comfort: it covers the body well and allows the freedom of movement the prayer needs.
