FORMAL AND BUSINESS ATTIRE

Although dress is normally casual, there are occasions when a more formal attire is needed. Here are some examples of clothing worn specifically for a formal affair or a business event.

FOR WOMEN

Due to sensitivity to conservative Muslim and Hindu beliefs, much of the dress worn by women are also conservative. Blouses that cover at least their upper arms and skirts with lengths below the knee or longer are expected during a formal or business event. Dresses and dress-suits that are conservative in length are also appropriate.

Pants and pantsuits are not appropriate for women, however. Neither are bright and vivid hues. Dark and muted colors should be worn and women's formal or business attire should appear baggy rather than form fitting.
