Rules on women's attire are a little stricter. Women wear a black head-dress called the Shayla and they wear a black robe over their general clothes which is known as an Abaya. Some women, depending on the religious beliefs cover their face as well, leaving only the eyes visible. Foreigners are not expected to wear these clothes but they are expected to dress modestly when in public. Women are not allowed to wear strappy dresses or tops, sleeveless tops, and dresses, garments made of see-through fabrics or short skirts.
