Question:
This is a question about a woman's clothing.
Answer:
The Islamic dress for a woman is that which covers her. She should wear what covers her. She should not wear transparent clothing that does not cover her. She should not wear tight clothing that reveals the contours of her body. She should not wear short clothing. She should wear loose, baggy, wide clothing that covers what is beneath it, if she fears Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and is mindful of Him, because she is an 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) and is accountable on the Day of Resurrection for covering herself.
