I'm going to visit Riyadh on business, and need some advice about abayas. I know I need to arrive with one in my hand luggage, but I could do with some help on details. I've found several styles online, incuding kimono, pull on, button up, zipper and popper, and would appreciate women's views on the advantages of each. If I go shopping for one while I'm there will I be able to try it on in the shop, and get it taken up if need be (quite likely as I'm short) Some of my meetings will be women only, in a women only school.
