Man's long abayah (robe). Made of cream and light brown striped rayon (?) with silk floral decoration woven on the back, and silver braid on the shoulders and sleeve edges. The silver thread is wrapped around a yellow cotton core which makes it appear golden. Worn open over a long tunic (dishdasha).
