Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Hello,Prabha..and Everyone.. I am " S-I-M-B-L-Y..LOVING " ..THIS WHOLE Discussion.... Thanks for all ur inputs.. On an ending note..,I look at this whole DRESS CODE(for Women)sceanario...like this (Hope..I have not started a new discussion..on the Etiquettes and Diktats..of 7Star Hotels!!-Ha Ha Ha) For example..An invitation reads as follows. U both have been invited to a 5 star buffet spread..(but with an ending statement,)... Dresscode..-3piece Tuxedo..for men,and Saree,with xyz colour,for women,only please!! Knowing the fact,that the ambience will be good,the food excellent,the host gracious..and evening, well spent,we won't mind adhering to the dress code,right??!! (No,don't even try and see,how the Hotel attendants and staff behave,if u still try and force ur way,with ur style of dress. ..They r neither r kind or gracious in showing u the door out!!) That's how..we look at Saudi Arabia's Abhaya code. Nobody forced us to stay,we knew..and yet came..,for our personal reasons.. So,we have no right,to change..their thought process.. I guess..I am justified..with my thought process..
