Women Dress Code |
 |
One major factor that attracts every foreign tourist’s attention
– upon arrival in Iran – is the different way Iranians are dressed when compared
with Muslims in other Islamic countries. Although Iranians are Muslim and
the political establishment has been an “ Islamic Republic” since the revolution
of 1979, Iranian’s woman and girls in particular, don’t follow the same dress pattern
observed in Arab countries.

Tourists who have already been to Iran are familiar with this. National, Islamic and Western
cultures do play a role in social relations in Iran. That Is why cultural
and artistic developments in developed countries are not alien to Iranian ears.

in public, what all female foreign tourists need to know, is veil their hair and
sport long outfits such as raincoat and overcoat.

places they want to see. |

Assertions that
Iranian women appear in public like Arab countries are absolutely wrong. Pictures
of young Iranians girls, strolling in parks and shopping on streets are live proof
of that. The picture of Hijab (Islamic dress code) in Iran is wrong. Women
and girls born to religious & traditional families,
keep the Islamic veil to prop up their
beliefs and secure immunity from offensive.
Those who hold beliefs other than this,
keep
the minimum veil, required by the Islamic dress code.
