Adherents of Islam are concerned with clothing in two contexts: clothing for everyday wear, inside and outside the house; and clothing required in religious contexts.
There are different interpretations of what "modesty" requires.
Most agree that it is covering the awrah, from the belly button to the knees for men and from the head to the toes for women except the hands and the face or eyes, depending on what view one follows.

Women - The Qur'an states that women should dress modestly in the presence of unfamiliar men (defined as any man not related through blood).
While observing hijab is defined as covering a woman’s awrah, it is observed to varying degrees depending on culture.
Some Muslim women veil their heads only for prayer.

International fashion designers have created Abaya designs for the Gulf market.
