The cultural dress standard. Abu Dhabi's public areas expect covered shoulders and legs for both men and women. A PP linen shirt fully buttoned with linen trousers is both culturally appropriate and the most breathable natural fabric combination in Abu Dhabi's extreme heat.

For the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. The most beautiful mosque in the UAE — white marble, 82 domes. Covered dress is mandatory. The PP linen shirt in white with linen trousers carries the mosque visit correctly; the white shirt connects visually to the white marble of the mosque's architectural environment.

For the Louvre Abu Dhabi. Jean Nouvel's museum — the rain of light through the geometric dome. A PP linen shirt in white or a composed natural with linen trousers and leather shoes. The extraordinary filtered light rewards natural fabric in natural colourways.

For the St Regis Saadiyat and the resort hotels. Within the hotel grounds, the international resort wardrobe applies. White PP linen for the hotel beach; navy with linen trousers for the hotel restaurant evening.
