The religion and customs of Saudi Arabia dictate conservative dress for adult men and women plus teenagers. Foreigners are given some leeway in the matter of dress, but they are expected to follow local customs, particularly in public places. As a general rule, foreign men should wear long trousers and shirts that cover the upper torso. Foreign women should wear loose fitting skirts with hemlines well below the knee. Sleeves should be at least elbow length and the neckline modest. Jeans should not be tight fitting tank tops are not recommended. Non-Muslim women living in Saudi Arabia usually wear the Abaya over their clothing.
