A not great photo, but check out the sleeves, the partlett, and even better, the coif!!! |

What an excellent project for Oman! First the head-wear, which seems to be in three pieces.
1. Wired veil - seems fairly self explanatory, but quite short.
2. The fall - which at first glance seems fairly standard, but where on earth does it come from?There appears to be a white band under the lace of the coif which may be where the fall itself is attached, so it may be a separate piece.
3. The coif: The coif has a band with a bag attached. The band could be lace, there are certainly plenty of lace patterns that look like that. Interestingly, the bag has a net so it may possibly be burato.
