Amman Traditional Clothing?
Posted: Sun December 2, 2007 07:20 PM UTC
I'll be staying in Amman for just over 3 weeks. As a western woman should I wear any traditional clothing whilst in the city or is my general casual clothing culturally acceptable?

I didn't feel I stood out wearing either business attire (skirt) in Amman or more casual clothing, anywhere in Jordan. Although I wouldn't wear anything skimpy anyway.

amman is very westernized. we saw a lot of tight jeans actually and quite surprised. you should be fine. I wouldn't be weraing any mini skirts but normal casual clothing should be fine. I didn't really notice many spaghetti straps either.
