Do Women have clothing limitations? Women have to cover their body and
their hair in public (restaurants and hotel lobbies are public).
According to the law, only the face and the hands of women may be
visible, therefore it is best to wear a headscarf to cover the hair
and a coat to cover the body. The body has to be covered in such a
way that the skin of the woman is not visible. The hips, the legs
and the feet should not be visible. It is best to wear wide
clothing, so that the lines of the body are not recognizable. The
headscarf should cover the hair fully. The color of the scarf and
the clothing does not matter, and one is free to wear any
color.
