Traditional Chador of Iran |
||||||
 |

|
||||||
| Iranian women wearing the traditional garment known as the chador visit a cemetery for war dead in Tehrān. The chador has been worn by many Iranian women since before the Islamic Revolution (1978-1979). After the revolution it became mandatory for women to dress modestly by wearing either the chador or a long cloak called the manteau. | ||||||
