Adapted from the traditional Egyptian Galabia (Man's robe), this versatile shirt may be made for casual or elegant occasions for either men or women.

The original garments are ankle length and unadorned. Folkwear offers a modern shirt-length version that may be left plain or decorated with contrasting yoke, applique, or soutache braid in typical designs and/or handmade cording and knotted buttons. Instructions for optional handwork are included in the pattern, as well as suggested fabric layouts to make the long Galabia.

This shirt is very loose fitting with slightly flared sleeves curving under the arms to meet side panels with slit pockets, and front and back yokes that can be turned to either the inside or outside. Pattern pieces have different cutting lines for sizes ranging from XS Women to 2XL Men.
