These are examples of "jalabiyias" the colourful and often highly decorative robes (sometimes fitted in places) many Muslim women choose to wear as house dresses for special occasions, such as the Eid Holiday, following Ramadaan. Along with Omani traditional dress, and Western fashions, and sometimes other Arab regional dresses such as Morrocan caftans (takchita) these are what many Omani women opt to wear for Eid or have made at the tailor.It is an Eid custom to wear new clothes for the day, and your nicest [but ladies, not in front of the men you are not related to;)].
