Clothing Laws By Country





INTERNATIONAL LAWS AND CUSTOMS


Legally, clothing laws are as follows:

There are many specific circumstances where body parts have to be covered, often for safety or sanitary reasons.

In some Islamic Countries , women must conceal almost their entire bodies (see Hijab ). Several areas in Israel , notably Jerusalem , have dress codes out of respect for the customs and practices of Charedi Jews ; indeed, many sects of Torah Judaism have a code of modesty for both genders, designed to focus on inner beauty and de-emphasize the physical.

Other countries follow the opposite. In Denmark , Public Nudity is legal on most beaches. Papua New Guinea customs allow wearing only a Penis Sheath , which is both common and legal.
