Women's clothing in Islamic culture is based on a principle of modesty. Customs based on time, place, and social status of the woman is influenced by their wears.

Some options include Hijab -- or modest, loose clothing and a scarf over the head and under the chin -- and burqa or burka, a more complete covering of the head, face and body.

Women don't share a common style of clothing nor have the same reasons for wearing traditional clothing. For many it reflects the belief that they are following God's commandments, are dressing according to "the correct standard of modesty," or simply wearing the type of traditional clothes they feel comfortable in.

The varieties of Islamic Womens clothing are:

1) Abayas: Robes like a dress that women wear on top of their regular clothing as part of their Islamic tradition. The main purpose of wearing Abayas is to cover women as instructed in the Islamic religion.

2) Jilbab: Is the dress which looks like a raincoat. It has buttons or zippers all the way or halfway down the front.

3) Niqab: Is a veil which covers the face.

4) Hijab: Is the word used in the Islamic context as dressing modestly. It refers to a form of head scarf .In particular, it most often refers to a square scarf which is folded diagonally and worn over the head to cover the hair , ears and throat, but not the face

5) Hijab Accessories: These accessories include pins, underscarf and brooches.
