Chador: The Chador covers the entire body and is compulsory in all sacred sites (mosques etc.) It is generally black, although all tourist reception offices hold floral table cloths for those that have left theirs at home. Perhaps it is so tourists are easily identified?
Hijab (refer to the bottom photo): The dress code that require all women to hide all of the curves. It is generally comprised of a scarf that covers the head and long baggy shirts. It is compulsory to wear the Hijab in front of men, except amongst blood family. Eider complains continuously about having to wear it because it takes her five minutes longer to get to the toilet in the morning.
