Dress Codes are pretty important in Iran. Women must wear Hijab in public which entails covering hair, hands, and legs. Women typically wear a scarf and long dresses or overcoats called Manteau. If you had a problem finding similar things in your country, no worries, you can find pretty ones with reasonable prices in Iran.
Men can wear short-sleeved shirts but must have long pants. Remember to consider the dress codes even on your arrival at the airport. But don’t be alarmed. Even if your outfit doesn’t match the dress code, you’re not goanna be arrested or insulted or anything. People understand that you’re a tourist and can even help you find suitable outfits if you ask them.
Men aren’t allowed to wear shorts in public, so bring long, lightweight pants as the best option. T-shirts are fine to wear in public. Men can wear sandals too.
If you do wear inappropriate clothing it’s not the end of the world, and besides some angry looks from some of the older generation, you’ll probably just end up having a friendly local let you know what’s best to wear.
In Tehran, the locals push the limits in terms of what they wear in public. At the end of 2017, an uprising occurred and supposedly women were no longer required to wear the Hijab in public in Tehran, but wait until you are in the country to find out for certain.
Women need to cover their arms, legs and head. This including a Hijab, loose long length shirt with long sleeves and pants.
Leggings or tight jeans are ok as long as your top is long and covers your bottom. When wearing pants, you need to be covered down to your ankles.
The most common way to cover your head is with a scarf. The local women wear bright colors and are very stylish with their clothing, so don’t think you need to wear all black.
Black is still worn a lot but not so much among the younger generation.
You can wear sandals. Some guesthouses and hostels will allow you to take your headscarf off on their premises but do check first.
That is better if you Have a Head Scarf in Your Carry-On Luggage Before Arrival. When you land at the airport, it is respectful to put a scarf straight on your head ladies. This will cause no trouble for you by locals or the officials at the airport.
Once you’re in the air on an international flight you’ll see most young ladies take their hijab as soon as the plane leaves the ground. Just follow what the locals do.
