Dressing for Dream Destinations: Morocco
“Dressing for Dream Destinations” is a travel series that takes us across the world to daydream about what we’d wear to various locations.
Morocco is a beautiful country containing a unique blend of Arabian, European, Berber, and African cultures. However, visitors are expected to follow their custom of dressing modestly so that means packing lots of layers, long dresses, and breezy scarves! Respecting local dress will also make your trip smoother and more enjoyable.
