Women's trousers in the Near East are made of both unicoloured or striped silk, as well as of unicoloured
or cotton print. They are tied round the hips with a strip of material made to draw ("dikkeh"). The lower
part of the trousers is pulled up and gathered below the knee by means of tape drawn through the hem.
Owing to their length, however, the trousers reach to the feet, or nearly to the ground, although they are
tied up.
They have extension pieces cut like gaiters which can be fitted close to leg by buttoning.
