A bisht ( Arabic: بِشْت; plural: بِشُوت bishūt and بْشُوت bshūt), known in some Arabic spoken dialects as mishlaḥ (Arabic: مِشْلَح) or ʿabāʾ (Arabic: عَبَاء), is a traditional men’s cloak popular in the Arab world, and worn in general for thousands of years.

Bahrain’s traditional clothes are in line with other Gulf countries but have some unique features which differentiate them from the neighbouring countries.

In recent years, the thobes have become a popular fashion item, with many fashion designers adding their own modern twists to the traditional garment. The term veil includes a notable variety of headgears which come in a multitude of shapes, lengths, and fabrics. Jalabiya – just like the Egyptians, Sudanese men like being comfortable clothes, such as loose-fitting tunics. The main difference between Shayla and Al-Amira is the shape of the scarf (rectangular for the Shayla, tubular for the al-amira) and the head cap (hidden or only slightly visible in the former, while a significant portion is left exposed in the latter).In the 2022 FIFA World Cup final, Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani placed a bisht on the Argentine captain Lionel Messi before the 35-year-old was handed the trophy. Thus, clothes in the Middle East are a fashion statement, just like they are in the West, but clothing has a stronger social and moral dimension, too. While the keffiah is also used in Palestine and Jordan, the dishdasha remains the Gulf men’s fashion landmark.

Thobes commonly worn by men and are considered as symbols of national and cultural identity, and are appropriate attire for formal occasions and religious ceremonies. It is worn as an outer wrapper whenever women are outside their homes or in the company of unrelated males.

In fact, in Gulf countries, the quality and design of the ‘abaya’ reveal one’s social class and status. Saudi men and women have kept wearing their traditional items of clothing and adherence to the moderate Islamic dress for both sexes is an absolute must.

It is not as popular as the previous types of head covering; still, some women wear it in their daily life. A bisht is usually worn for prestige on special occasions such as weddings, or festivals such as Eid, or for Ṣalāt al-Jumuʿah or Salat al-Janazah. Dishdasha : Similar to the classic one, the Kuwaiti dishdasha has a distinguishing one-button collar. Among all the Arab countries, Lebanon deserves, arguably, the title of most fashionable and stylish.
