 The Secretary of the Women and Family Affairs Office of the Ministry of Interior said that the initial phase of the Plan for the Fashion and Dress of Working Women in Tehran had been carried out.“In this plan, we are not looking to coordinate or make uniforms for working women”, she said.“In the designing of the clothes of the working women, our stress is on it being compatible with the work in question and Islamic laws”, Zahra Abbasi added.“[Only] colors and designs will be considered that are compatible with [Islamic teachings related to women] and surely hot colors that are not suitable for the workplace will not be used”, she stressed.“Women’s covering and dress in the workplace has to provide for the security of the workplace and instead of being flashy it should shed light on the moral character of women”, Abbasi said.
