This is a topic I've been meaning to write about for a while now and so glad that I finaly have the chance!
What is the deal with Abayas here?? Worn at work, the mall, retaurants, even the freakin beach!!!!!
Ok, I completely respect the Arab muslim attire, which is why I feel it should be worn appropriately at the right place and time.
Why wear it at the mall if it is going to drag all the dust from the floor and then take it all back home. EWWW GROSS!!!
Why wear it at work when it gets stuck around the wheels on the chair, or on table corners or between elevator doors and cause you to get seriously injured! Or wait, a classic example, girls who work in the engineering labs who wear them! You deal with chemicals, things could catch fire, can you not think and be realistic about your choice of outfits! agggg it really angers me!
Other than those who work in labs, Abayaed Doctors surprise me too! There is nothing neat about it, it does not even look nice with the coat over it.
Come on, if it is about being covered then there are different ways of dressing up fully covered, loose and long outfits that would fit any muslim Arab woman well as the scarf would complete it perfectly.
I believe the Abaya is a very beautiful piece of clothing that truly stresses on Arabi fashion and beauty. It's designs have reached high ranked fashion industries all over the world. All the more reason for it to be preserved and not just worn everywhere and anywhere. It just takes away its value by doing that...
But then again, thats just my opinion,dedicated to Paul....venting done, over and out!
