Talk:Culture of Bahrain/Archive 1

Expansion
This article needs to be expanded to include the dresses, culture, diet, dance, music and other things pertaining to culture. Pictures would make the article more explanatory.

Dresses
I don't know what the traditional red dress (worn by the female mannequin in the pic) is called. Somebody needs to elaborate on that. Also, my knowledge on the male dressing (dashdasha, guthra/ghutra, keffiyeh etc ???) is limited. It's called thoub nashel - national dress. It's usually worn on National Day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.209.11.233 (talk) 19:56, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Comment: Should the female gown be called daffah (which I think is a type of thobe) or rather jilbab/abaya? See http://www.islamicshowroom.com/categories.php?cat=6
