Dear Gypsy,yes you are correct some tobe,s are very expensive the proffesional ones start around 500 dirham till perhaps 10.000 or even more...but not everybody can afford a dress like that...so then the cheap ones come realy handy...now the tob that i am refering to, is the purple colored one in the picture in the post early in this thread...also it is not called ,,abaja,, its called ,,neshell,, that is where the name ,,nash,, comes from the traditional uae dance for ladys...the tob is specialy used for dancing and not like a abaya to cover the normal day to day clothing...have a nice day Lydia
