Qatar through our eyes
A contemporary style
Qatar is a society of tradition , but also of change . There is no better reflection of this than with the thobe . Traditional attire worn by men in the region , the crisp thobe is worn everywhere : from the workplace and the mall to restaurants and cafes .
Despite being white in colour , there is no doubt that the thobe makes its contemporary surroundings richer and more vibrant . Like a tile in the mosaic , no two people in Qatar are the same and yet when brought together , they create something both cohesive and beautiful .
