When i said thawb I was specifically referring to the white robe that people from Saudi Arabia usually wear. . I just pointed out Ottoman dress as an example of the diversity of Islamic clothing (which I think greatly surpasses European styles in terms of beauty, modesty, and comfort).If it hadn't been for Ataturk's modernization reforms actually, people in Turkey might have stuck onto their traditional Islamic styles. I would be wearing a fez right now. . Maybe I would wear thawbs or kaftans. But no, our wonderful Islamic heritage had to be sold out for Western dress by Mustafa Kemal. What a horrible man. Sorry for being off topic, but I really want to wear a fez!!!
Im thinking of buying a thawb but Im afraid it might rip when I walk. Or that it might restrict my movement to small steps.
