I've been getting many questions asking, Why am I covering my
head?!!..Well, the matter of fact is.. This is a part of the Saudi national uniform which is widely used in here..
We could wear it pretty much everywhere.. especially at work and formal occasions..
but we don't wear it all the time 💁🏻♂️..
The Saudi national uniform is kind of the same for both men and women.. we both cover our heads and we both wear what might looks like a "dress" 😅🤷🏻♂️ , to many people who haven't seen it before 💁🏻♂️.. but it's not 🙅🏻♂️..
let's just call it a "long shirt"😅..
the long shirt covers the whole body for both men and women..
For the head section:
-Men wear a scarf, which we call (Shemagh) if it's a red one and (Ghutra) if it's white!..
-Women cover their heads with a scarf called (Hijab) it comes with many different colors, you'll find it black often in here..
For the body section:
-Men wear a long shirt, we call it a (Thobe) it's usually white during summer time! and at winter it we will be in so many colors.. and it's usually pretty straightforward standard design !..
-Women wear a long shirt, we call it (Abaya)..
Now, since women are more creative at fashion and design.. Abaya comes in so many different shapes, designs and colors!..🤷🏻♂️..
