Thiyab Al Qasim · ثياب القاسم
Woven with tradition. Worn with love.
Thiyab Al Qasim is a family fashion house that begins with children. The children's range leads the collection, supported by men's thobes and women's abayas, and every part of it is presented with the same question in mind: would we be happy to dress our own family in this?
What we are building
What we are building
A children-first clothing brand with a contemporary approach to presentation and personal fit. Children's thobes carry the collection; men's thobes and women's abayas complete the family wardrobe. Kurtas sit alongside as a quieter everyday option.
We are starting in India, and we are developing the experience first: how a parent finds a size, how a fit question gets answered, how a family shops together, and how a made-to-order request is handled. The commercial details — stock, fabric, delivery, returns — are being confirmed before launch rather than guessed at now.
Kids' Thobes
Why children come first
Because children are the hardest customers to dress well and the easiest to please. They outgrow garments in months, they refuse anything that scratches, and they remember a day by how they felt in it rather than what it cost. Designing for them first keeps the whole house honest about comfort, movement and durability.
It also changes what we owe the adult buying. A parent is asked to guess a size for somebody who cannot describe a fit, often for a date that cannot move. So the size guidance, the measurement help and the personal assistance pathway are built around that situation, not bolted on afterwards.
Still unsure about size or fit?
Children's requests are handled with a parent or guardian, and we would rather answer a question now than have a garment sent back later. Tell us the child's height, a garment that fits well, and the date you need it for.
Choosing a child's size
Children's sizing is the question we are asked most, and the one most likely to go wrong if it is guessed.
Tradition, and individual preference
Tradition, and individual preference
The garments we make come from living traditions, and those traditions are not uniform. A thobe cut one way in one household is cut differently in the next, and an abaya is worn to its wearer's own idea of coverage. We describe our pieces as inspired by a tradition — Saudi-inspired, Omani-inspired, Qatari-inspired — because that is accurate, and because no country owns a single cut.
We do not ask anybody to dress a particular way. Some families mark every Friday, some only Eid, some simply like the way a well-made white thobe looks on a child. All of those are good reasons to be here.
Saudi-inspired
Structured collar, concealed placket, straight and tidy lines. Reads smartest of the four.
Omani-inspired
Round neckline without a collar, softer shoulder, more room through the body.
Qatari-inspired
Band collar and a longer, fluid fall, often in deeper tones.
Contemporary
Simplified details and an easier fit for children who dislike anything formal.
A more personal approach
A more personal approach
Some purchases need a conversation. A first thobe for a four-year-old, a wedding garment that must match a brother's, an abaya where coverage and length are personal decisions — these are not solved by a size chart alone. That is why consultation and tailoring requests exist: somebody reads the details, checks them against what is actually possible, and comes back with a clear answer before anything is ordered.
Our approach to information
Our approach to information
We would rather show an honest gap than a comfortable guess. Where a garment's fabric, measurements or included items are not confirmed, the product page says so plainly and the field stays editable. It makes the prototype look unfinished in places. That is deliberate: a claim about a garment we have not finished specifying would be worse.
The same applies to promises we cannot yet keep. Delivery windows, return terms, gift eligibility and contact channels appear here as drafts until they are set, and nothing on this site should be read as a confirmed service commitment.
Draft structure — not reviewed, not launch-ready
This is a prototype website. Products, imagery and prices are concept examples developed to design the experience, and are not confirmed stock.
