The Ruling on Women Wearing White

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Wearing white for women?

Answer:
In principle, it is permissible if it is not in the manner in which men wear it. However, because it is generally the attire of men, she should avoid it. For this reason, it is considered blameworthy for her to wear it, as it generally carries a clear resemblance to men, since white is predominantly worn by men. But if she wears it in a specific style exclusive to women, there is no imitation involved, just as she might wear red, while he wears red, green, or black; they all wear them.
