Loving the Burkha

Walking the Dubai Malls nothing is as stylish as the Burkha. Add a Chanel bag, a gold rolex, some YSL sunglasses and a pair of Jimmy Choo's or Manolo's and you will be the epitome of Dubai fashion. The look is elegant and carries an aura of mistique that displaying your muffin top, bra strap, VPL or dragon tattoo just can't compete with. Not only that, the burkha is also practical, you can enjoy one of the many brunches in Dubai without having to undo your fly. Going swimming, no problem, the Burkini hides a multitude of winter sins and you don't need a spray tan. The fact you don't have to do your hair, if you choose not to, is another advantage.

The male equivalent is the kaendoura and it has just as many benefits.

It is very flattering on the more cuddly gentleman.
