Do women have to wear special clothing considering Dubai is a Muslim state?
Even though United Arab Emirates is a Muslim country and Dubai is one of its most important cities, the clothing rules are not very conservative and strict. Being a cosmopolitan city, the rules are much relaxed and there are no specific dress codes to be followed by both men and women unlike other neighboring states. Tourists, visitors and residents are free to wear any kind of clothing to the extent that one can wear bikinis or short skirts but of course depending on where they are.
