Ahmadinejad wants 'Iranian dress code
Ahmadinejad wants 'Iranian dress code' Tehran:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called for the introduction of an "Iranian dress code" for men and women alike, the news agency ISNA reported Monday.
ISNA quoted Ahmadinejad as saying during a visit to an Iranian textile exhibition that experts should work on the dress code. The president insisted that the new outfit should have a variety of forms and colours as well as be economical.
"But when we say Iranian dress code we do not only refer to women but also to men," he said.The Iranian parliament has several times raised the issue of the "national dress bill" for replacing current Western-style fashions.
Iran plans to impose Pakistan- or Indian-style gowns on Iranian women but it is still unclear what the national outfit for men is supposed to look like.
