Tony -

I think the garments are it. I do not seem to be alone.

1. A white garment traditionally worn by Hajj pilgrims to Mecca.

and

15. A long outer garment resembling an open coat, having long sleeves,
and worn especially formerly in Muslim countries especially by public
officials and professional people.

Thanks,

Chuck
