Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
A woman's lawful dress must cover her entire body from non- men, must not be transparent revealing the color of the skin, nor tight, defining her limbs. Also, she must not imitate men in her dress, and it must not contain adornments that attract attention when she goes out. It is forbidden to imitate non-Muslims in their clothing and customs, as this severs the Islamic bond and religious morals.
