...Burqas. A business opportunity awaits in upscale ladies' fashions at the Al Faisaliyah Mall in Riyadh. The models shown above are rather stiff even by Saudi standards, which permit the eyes to be exposed through a slit in the abaya, which is always black, and worn on the head as accessory to the normal long dress. Burqas are just too Bedouin for wealthy urban women, these look Afghani ca. 1950. But they're making a comeback lately in many countries, in new colors and styles.
