Arabian Clothing and Fashion

The majority of Arab women dress conservatively. In the Arabic countries you will find a variety of traditions. Many women dress in clothes that do not cover their faces or hair, while others cover them and it all depend on the country they reside, their personal choice, or social level.
A very conservative woman might wear a long black garment called "Abayah" that covers the body from the shoulders down to feet. Under this cover she could be wearing a traditional Arabian dress, "thawb", or she could be wearing the latest style designer clothes. In addition to the Abayah, a very conservative woman would wear a face and head cover. Some women would wear the Abayah without the head and face cover, while others might wear a scarf-like cover called "Hejab" to cover the hair only and not the face.

As well, many women wear the latest style clothes without an Abayah or Hejab depending on the country they reside in. In some countries, like Saudi Arabia, you never find women in the streets without the Abayah whereas in other countries such as Jordan, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt you find a mixture of women either wearing the Hejab, Abayah, or casual jeans, shirts, long and short skirts.

The same goes for men and depending on the country they reside in or whether they live in a rural or urban area you will find men wearing the western style clothes or they might wear the traditional “Dishdasha”, “Thawb” and “Kaffiyeh” with “Igal”

Traditional Korean clothing has its roots extending back at least as far as the Three Kingdoms Period (57 B.C. - 668 A.D.), as evidenced by wall paintings in tombs dating from this period. The Korean hanbok represents one of the most visable aspects of Korean culture. The top part called a jeogori is blouse-like with long sleeves with the men's version being longer, stretching down to the waist. Women wear skirts (chima) while men wear baggy pants (paji). Commoners wore white, except during festivals and special occassions such as weddings. Clothes for the upper classes were made of bright colors and indicated the wearer's social status. Various accessories such as foot gear, jewelry, and headdresses or hair pins completed the outfit. Traditional Chinese Clothing Chinese people were wearing silk while other cultures were still dressing in animal skins. Clothing in China did not only evolve over time; it often transformed dramatically following Dynastic changes or the Imperial decree of a new ruler. In ancient feudal society, people's rank and position could easily be distinguished from their daily dress, especially for the ordinary people and upper-class. Among the upper dominating class, only to the Emperor was assigned the colour yellow and the dragon emblem on traditional Chinese imperial dress as an exclusive affirmation of their power. There is no "typical" Chinese costume, although today, if any one style of clothing epitomises "Chineseness", it would be the Cheongsam, or Qipao, which evolved from ancient clothing of the Manchu ethnic minority. Popular because it fits the Chinese female figure well, has simple lines and looks elegant; it is suitable for wearing in all seasons by young or old and can either be long or short. It is recognised around the world and has inspired many foreign adaptations because of its simple yet exotic lines. It is popularly worn in northern China as the wedding dress, traditionally Red, embroidered with elaborate gold and silver designs. Brides in southern China wear Qipao or a two-piece dress name Qungua or Kwa, which is also elaborately adorned with a gold dragon and phoenix pattern.Hope you can come china and have your china holidays with top china travel.
