Saudi Arabian dress strictly follows the principles of hijab (the Islamic principle of modesty, especially in dress). The predominantly loose and flowing, but covering, garments are suited to Saudi Arabia's desert climate. Traditionally, men usually wear an ankle length garment woven from wool or cotton (known as a thawb), with a keffiyeh (a large checkered square of cotton held in place by an agal) or a ghutra (a plain white square made of finer cotton, also held in place by an agal) worn on the head. For rare chilly days, Saudi men wear a camel-hair cloak (bisht) over the top. Women's clothes are decorated with tribal motifs, coins, sequins, metallic thread, and appliques. Women are required to wear an abaya or modest clothing when in public.  Ghutrah () is a traditional headdress typically worn by Arab men. It is made of a square of cloth ("scarf"), usually cotton, folded and wrapped in various styles around the head. It is commonly worn in areas with an arid climate, to provide protection from direct sun exposure, and also protection of the mouth and eyes from blown dust and sand.  Agal () is an item of Arab headgear constructed of cord which is fastened around the Ghutrah to hold it in place. The "agal" is usually black in colour.  Thawb () is the standard Arabic word for garment. It is ankle length, usually with long sleeves similar to a robe.  Bisht () is a traditional Arabic men's cloak usually only worn for prestige on special occasions such as weddings.  Abaya () is a women's garment. It is a black cloak which loosely covers the entire body except the head. Some women choose to cover their faces with a niqāb and some do not. Some Abayas cover the top of the head as well.
The Islamic dress code is not compulsory. Most Emirati males prefer to wear a kandura, an ankle-length white shirt woven from wool or cotton, and most Emirati women wear an abaya, a black over-garment covering most parts of the body. An average UAE male national could have up to 50 kanduras as they keep changing their clothing to ensure the dress being kept clean. This attire is particularly well-suited for the UAE's hot and dry climate, the reason being that the white cloak reflects back the sunlight, for the same reason the UAE men wear white cloaks throughout the summer season while colorful cloaks are seen during the winters. Western-style clothing is, however, dominant because of the large expatriate population, and this practice is beginning to grow in popularity among Emiratis. Prohibitions on "indecent clothing" are an aspect of the UAE to which visitors are expected to conform. Recently, many expatriates have disregarded the law and been arrested for indecent clothing, or lack thereof, at beaches. Western-style dress is tolerated in places such as bars or clubs, but the UAE has enforced anti-indecency prohibitions in other public spaces. 
The traditional attire for men is the "dishdasha", an ankle-length garment woven from wool or cotton. This attire is particularly well-suited for Kuwait's hot and dry climate. The traditional male headdress involves the "ghutrah" headscarf and the "agal" circlet, often with a "gahfiah" skullcap underneath to help keep the headscarf in place. The "ghutrah" is a square scarf made from cotton; it may be worn differently according to the situation, but most commonly it is folded into a triangle and placed centrally on the head so that the ends hang down equally over the shoulders. The "agal" is a double circlet of black cord, worn on the "ghutrah" to hold it in place. Women sometimes wear the "aba", a black cloak covering most parts of the body and a dress; the traditional floor-length "daraa’" or the more festive "thobe". A "hejab" headscarf is worn with this, with some adding a "bushiya" face veil. Western style clothing is very popular among the youth of Kuwait. 
  : A wide undersash used to tie the nagajuban and the outer kimono and hold them in place. : A detached collar that can be worn instead of a nagajuban in summer, when it can be too hot to comfortably wear a nagajuban. It replaces the nagajuban collar in supporting the kimono's collar. : The traditional Japanese undergarment (loin cloth) for adult males, made from a length of cotton. : Wooden sandals worn by men and women with "yukata". One unique style is worn solely by geisha. : A divided ("umanoribakama") or undivided skirt ("andonbakama") which resembles a wide pair of trousers, traditionally worn by men but contemporarily also by women in less formal situations. A hakama typically is pleated and fastened by ribbons, tied around the waist over the obi. Men's hakama also have a "koshi ita", which is a stiff or padded part in the lower back of the wearer. Hakama are worn in several budo arts such as aikido, kendo, iaidō and naginata. Hakama are often worn by women at college graduation ceremonies, and by Miko on shinto shrines. Depending on the pattern and material, hakama can range from very formal to visiting wear. : The worker's version of the more formal "haori". Often padded for warmth, as opposed to the somewhat lighter "happi". : A hip- or thigh-length kimono-like jacket, which adds formality to an outfit. Haori were originally worn only by men, until it became a fashion for women in the Meiji period. They are now worn by both men and women. Men's haori are typically shorter than women's. The was specifically made for armoured samurai to wear. : A tasseled, woven string fastener for haori. The most formal color is white. : A type of "haori" traditionally worn by shop keepers and is now associated mostly with festivals. : A type of under-kimono, historically worn by women beneath the kimono. Today they are only worn on formal occasions such as weddings and other important social events. High class kimonos may have extra layers of lining to emulate the appearance of hiyoku worn beneath. : A thin garment similar to an undershirt. It is worn under the nagajuban. : A kimono-shaped robe worn by both men and women beneath the main outer garment. Since silk kimono are delicate and difficult to clean, the "nagajuban" helps to keep the outer kimono clean by preventing contact with the wearer's skin. Only the collar edge of the nagajuban shows from beneath the outer kimono. Many "nagajuban" have removable collars, to allow them to be changed to match the outer garment, and to be easily washed without washing the entire garment. While the most formal type of "nagajuban" are white, they are often as beautifully ornate and patterned as the outer kimono. Since men's kimono are usually fairly subdued in pattern and color, the "nagajuban" allows for discreetly wearing very striking designs and colors. : Hair ornaments worn by women. Many different styles exist, including silk flowers, wooden combs, and jade hairpins. : The susoyoke and hadajuban combined into a one-piece garment. : A narrow sash used to aid in dressing up, often made of silk or wool. They are used to hold virtually anything in place during the process of dressing up, and can be used in many ways depending on what is worn. Some of the karihimos are removed after datejime or obi have been tied, while others remain worn beneath the layers of the dress. The karihimo that is worn around the hips to create the extra fold or "ohashori" in women's kimono is called "koshihimo", literally "hip ribbon". : An ornament worn suspended from the men's obi. : The sash worn with kimono. : The scarf-like sash which is knotted and tied above the obi and tucked into the top of the obi. Worn with the more formal varieties of kimono. : The everyday clothes for a male Zen Buddhist monk, and the favoured garment for "shakuhachi" players. : A thin half-slip-like piece of underwear worn by women under the "nagajuban". : Ankle-high, divided-toe socks usually worn with "zōri" or "geta". There also exist sturdier, boot-like "jikatabi", which are used for example to fieldwork. : Straw rope sandals which are mostly worn by monks. : An unlined kimono-like garment for summer use, usually made of cotton, linen, or hemp. Yukata are strictly informal, most often worn to outdoor festivals, by men and women of all ages. They are also worn at onsen (hot spring) resorts, where they are often provided for the guests in the resort's own pattern. : Traditional sandals worn by both men and women, similar in design to flip-flops. Their formality ranges from strictly informal to fully formal. They are made of many materials, including cloth, leather, vinyl and woven grass, and can be highly decorated or very simple.  
The cloth was distinguished by its butis woven in circular shapes that gave an impression of ashrafis (gold coins). The ashrafis were usually woven in gold zari. This is a mixed fabric with a woven stripe or zigzag pattern. The warp and weft used were of two different materials (silk and cotton, cotton and linen, silk and wool or wool and cotton) in different colors. It was used mostly for lower garments such as trousers, the lining of the heavy brocade garments or as furnishing. "Gul Badan" (the literal meaning of which is ‘flower like body’) was a known variety of mushru (cotton and silk) popular in the late 19th century. Sangi, Ganta, Ilaycha were types of mushru too. These were popular since ancient times and were known to be woven at all leading silk centers. One reason for their popularity was Islam. Since Islam does not allow men to wear pure silk, mashru (literally meaning permitted) became very popular amongst Muslims.
