Cheerful veils


A veil for women is compulsory in Iran. I expected to see a lot of black burqas, the ones that convey sadness. Instead, most women, above all in Teheran, wear colourful and cheerful veils which keep some centimeters of hair free.
At home women do not usually wear the veil. Only some of the older people we met in private houses wore it in our presence, because we were strangers.
