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
