Maldivian society approves "Oriyaan haalathugai magumatheega"
A young girl in a mini-skirt says to a friend, 'Wouldn't it be great if we could wear skirts like the English Prep school girls!'
She is only worried about one thing - not being able to have her school uniform above her knees.
| 'It was incredibly hard for her to bend over because of her mini-skirt.' |
She wants uniforms as short as evening dresses, fashioned in a way that everyone will notice.
A girl gets off the Viligili ferry and walks towards the Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital. Because of her short dress, most of her thighs are exposed.
| '... the material was so transparent that you could make out the curves of her body.' |
After a while, when she walked up to a group of young boys she began to pull down parts of her dress, stretching it. She tries very hard to lengthen the dress.
Why the hesitation to be in front of others in a mini-skirt, if you choose to wear it?
If instead she wore a dress more suitable for the Maldivian environment, discreet and considered appropriate by Maldivian society, then she would not have to pull at the hem of her dress to feel covered.
A tall girl is in one of the stalls of the Society for Education. Her dress was about a handspan above her knees.
Due to a collision with a child in the stall a paper file in her hand fell to the floor.
It was incredibly hard for her to bend over because of her mini-skirt.
She slowly pushed it behind a desk with her foot and at last picked up the file.
Many people ridiculed her about it and the next evening she wore a shalwar-kameez.
Dressing appropriately for the place and occasion makes you feel comfortable and avoids embarrassment.
A young girl who was watching a weekend show was complaining there were too many men staring at her.
She didn't think about the reason. She was wearing a dress that was shorter than Maldivians usually wear, and the material was so transparent that you could make out the curves of her body.
It is very important to dress in a discreet way to avoid ridicule and suggestive glances from others.
Maldivian society approves of such discretion.

I have often asked the same question. It is silly to wear a top so short that it shows the abdomen between it's bottom and the jeans and then try to stretch it. If you are ashamed, then don't wear the silly top.
