The Abaya, a long, elegant cloak traditionally black in color, is the national dress for women in the UAE. It covers the body except for the face, feet, and hands, though some women pair it with a niqāb and Gafaaz to cover their face and hands.

Khaleegy, or Khaliji, is a blend of modern and traditional folkloric dance from the Persian Gulf countries, including Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, and the UAE. The dance involves rows of women moving slowly in close proximity, swaying their hair while keeping their hips mostly stationary. The costume, usually colorful and embroidered, plays a significant role. Khaliji music, which accompanies the dance, dates back over 1,000 years to the Islamic period under the Umayyads.
