WHAT TO WEAR IN MOROCCO?
What to wear in Morocco? what you wear depends on where you are. Big cities like Casablanca, Tangier, and Marrakech are more relaxed about fashion. You’ll see people wearing crop tops, jeans, and shorts, like in other places. But in smaller towns and villages, this is less common and gets more attention. I remember seeing two European women in revealing clothes in Marrakesh, and people stared a lot, making it uncomfortable.
It’s smart to lean towards conservative clothing in Morocco, no matter where you go. It’s a Muslim country, so respecting local traditions is important. Even in big cities, showing a lot of skin might make you feel uncomfortable because it’s not common and can attract attention.
What Should not wear in Morocco?
As I mentioned, wearing revealing clothes in Morocco can be very uncomfortable. Since over 99% of Moroccans are Muslim, it’s important to respect their religious customs. While many Moroccans dress nicely, it’s best to avoid clothing that doesn’t fit with their conservative culture.
Here are some things not to wear:
– Very low-cut shirts or tops that show a lot of cleavage.
– Shorts or skirts that are too short (generally, keep them below the knee).
– Clothes that are too tight or clingy (it’s hot and can attract unwanted attention).
– Clothing with inappropriate images, promoting drugs/alcohol, or offensive to Islam or Muslims.
– Sheer or provocative clothing.
