Tesettür

Tesettür refers to a headscarf and light cover-all topcoat. Any observant Turkish Muslim women (perhaps 30\% of the female population) dress in Tesettür when going out in public. This satisfies the Islamic admonition to modest dress without infringing Turkish law which prohibits religious dress in public places.
