About prayer wear
Prayer wear is made for ease of coverage during prayer: one-piece prayer dresses that slip on in seconds, and two-piece prayer sets (a skirt with a matching khimar-style top). Many are lightweight and pack down small, so a travel prayer dress with its own bag is easy to keep in a handbag.
Browse one-piece and two-piece styles from independent brands, in a range of colours and prints.

Frequently asked questions
- What is a prayer dress?
- A prayer dress (sometimes called a telekung or isdal) is a loose garment designed to cover the body and head easily for prayer. It comes as a single slip-on piece or as a two-piece set with a matching head covering.
- What is the difference between a one-piece and two-piece prayer set?
- A one-piece prayer dress covers head and body in a single garment you pull on. A two-piece set separates into a skirt and a cape-like top (khimar), which some find easier to adjust and pack.
