You also see a variety of Marrakechis here. Moroccan city women, and women from the country when they come into the city, typically wear an overgarment called the djellaba. The djellaba has a long hood which is drawn over the head, and a veil is usually aDDed. This aDDs a sense of privacy to the world outside the home, and women thereby lessen their noticeability and see the djellaba and veil as a way of protecting themselves from the world of men. The woman on the right is carrying her infant child on her back, strapped in by a long diaper.
Men wear a form of the djellaba, too.
