I thought not casting any Arab actors for a fictional Middle Eastern kingdom that's literally called "ARABster" where the royal family is called the "Nefertari Family," whose citizens wear ghutras and abayas while mentioning eating Arabic food like Kunfa was a new low for Hollywood.
Then I learned that Marty Adelstein, the CEO & founder of the Tomorrow Studios, is a Zionists and now everything makes sense. This isn't a new low, this just regular old Hollywood.

Finding information on Jamila wasn't particularly easy, but from what I can gather...
(credit to @eepop-stuffs btw for getting her on my radar!)
Tumblr media
Jamila was first released in 2006 by Simba Toys Middle East. According to an article published upon her debut at the 2006 Middle East Toy Fair in Dubai, her prototype initially intended to include fashions representing Turkey, Bangladesh, and Indonesia. However, these concepts never made it to final release, and we unfortunately have no photos of what they would have looked like.
Tumblr media
Her initial lineup consisted of four dolls: herself, her male Arabic friend Jamil, her Indian friend Sunayana, and her Egyptian friend Kareema.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The name Jamila means "beautiful", and she seems to have only really been released with one outfit. She wore a black abaya with silver detailing with black shoes, and underneath wore a light blue tanktop with a white pencil skirt. Like her friends Sunayana and Kareema, Jamila has dark hair, brown eyes, and henna on her hands and feet.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
For those unaware, Henna is a form of body decoration which originated from Africa and the Middle East, used with a natural dye from the Mehendi (lawsonia inermis). It is commonly tied to religious ceremonies such as engagements, weddings, Diwali, and Eid!
For Eid Al-Fitr, Henna would be applied towards the end of Ramadan as a symbol of the earthly delight of being alive. Jamila (and Sunayana if we're to believe they had identical Henna) seems to have eye imagery in hers, which represents protection from evil thoughts or wishes. It's also found on the top of her hands, also symbolizing protection, and on her feet, meant to soothe the nerves.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The name Jamil means "handsome". Jamil was initially released clean-shaven, but it seems later releases gave him facial hair. This might have been around the same time he was changed from Jamila's male friend to her husband, likely because (although opposite-sex friendships aren't explicitly forbidden) certain Muslims worry such friendships might result in inappropriate romantic thoughts. While this doesn't seem to be a unanimous belief across the board (many believing opposite-sex friendships are fine so long as you're careful), it might have caused enough controversy that Simba felt the need to marry the two so there weren't any implications. (Credit to Jan Unwichtig and Bababolond on Flickr for the images)
Ngl tho he is giving me major Kenergy...
Tumblr media
Jamil comes with a white Thobe with silver buttons, a white Serwal ( undergarments traditionally worn beneath the Thobe), a white cotton undershirt, a white headscarf known as a Ghutra (tied with a black band called the Egal), black sandals, and a small dagger.
I'm actually not sure why his doll comes with a knife? The closest I could find was the Kirpan: a knife or sword which serves as a reminder to promote justice and protect the weak, mandatory for Amritdhari Sikhs to wear at all times. However, although non-Muslims sometimes confuse the two, Sikhism is a completely separate religion from Islam.
If anyone knows what this knife might be intended to represent, please let me know and I'll reblog an edit to this post!
Tumblr media
After they were married, Jamila and Jamil had two children: Asad (meaning "Lion") and Almira (meaning "Princess"), both seen in the first illustration on this post. However, I can only seem to find one doll release for their daughter Almira, and none for Asad. Jamila comes in this playset in her base outfit, while her daughter (who cries when you press her stomach) wears pink pajamas. The playset includes a crib and several plastic accessories, including two hair brushes, a blow drier, and a baby bottle. Not only is this only release for Almira, but this also seems to be the only other release for Jamila aside from her initial core doll.
Tumblr media
Sunayana means "woman with lovely eyes". She has long braided black hair, wearing a blue Lehenga Choli with a yellow Dupatta. Like Jamila, she also has henna on her hands and feet. She wears silver bangles, a silver necklace, and what I believe might be a Maang Tikka. Based on her images on the back of the doll boxes, I'm fairly certain she came wearing yellow sandal heels as well!
Honestly she might be one of my favorites of the line, since you sadly don't see many culturally-accurate Indian dolls compared to other ethnic groups. I especially love the use of color, and just how much jewelry she comes with!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally we have Jamila's Egyptian friend Kareema, whose name means "generous" or "kind". She has pale pink undergarments painted on beneath her clothes, which I assume Jamila has as well. Weirdly enough, however, she doesn't seem to have Henna like the other two.
Like Sunayana and Jamila she has long black hair, which is kept beneath a white hijab. She wears a long blue overcoat, matching jeans, blue shoes, and a multicolored striped shirt. As far as I can tell, her clothing doesn't seem to have Egyptian cultural roots like Sunayana's has Indian, however her modest style of dress and hijab are common for most Muslim women.
I've been meaning to make this post for at least a full week, and it's nice to finally get to share another beautiful yet obscure Muslim doll! It's a shame this doll didn't have more releases, since I'm honestly curious with the direction the might have taken with her and her friends based on the prior illustration! Regardless, I'm happy I got to share her and her friends with you all :)
Ramadan Kareem!

I had Arabic for 2 years in Highschool. Every now and then my teacher, (Who is amazing by the way.) Would do cultural days where he'd show us parts of arabic culture from clothing to food. One day he brough in a ghutra. (Ghatra? Thats how its pronounced. IDK) that day I had a bandana because it was cold. I put two and two together and..
Well..
Allah..
(This joke has been cut short as it could violate Tumblr's TOS)
In all honesty I don't mean to offend anybody, I just found it slightly funny.

Virginia Thistle: Megalomaniac
To: Blankety Blank-Blank “If there is the possibility of a stable society in the foreseeable future, we must eradicate the lowly and the useless. All of civil humanity and our survival depends upon it.” Amorously, Ed And To: All who skillfully craft Tome Stones, you all get my applause. Yet not one clap being spread my way, that wouldn’t be very nice but compose on my friends. It is what it is, but please read my works and give me some damn reviews. Alright.
Portion 1 Serving Virginia Thistle Megalomaniac
York, Angeland. 1600. A brief day of yore.
"Madness, I say! The circle of blindness cannot be reversed, it is permanent, malady, yet the Puritan must continue or be swept away by the forces of evil. Therefore we must leave the land of torture malaise and go abroad to see what we can see.” Said the Aislinn girl, a true B of a scrivener and an exhibitionist among the Anglo-Saxons.
The Danelaw held sway and dominated the Anglo, but they were losing the war against further tyranny by the brutally wicked Viking forces invading their land.
The blood of many cried out, "Fore shame!"
“I must remain and you must leave. If everything works out, then you stay, but if not you must return and deal with all of this hellish world of unrest. What you see here and hear here stays here! Hear? Is that clear?” Replied Stella, the distraught B Queen.
“Aye ma’lady.” Said the Aislinn girl nodding her head in compliance.
As the braggart left, the castle was attacked, and the queen and all within were killed by the Viking B known as Ghutra-Etta Doppelgänger, an unworthy lady pirate in masquerade, barely escaping the bloody battle.
Pretending to be a pauper she then climbed aboard the dragon ship, Derby Middlesex where the Anglo-Saxon exhibitionist stood alone. She begged the Captain for permission to sail with them to the elusive land of the Great Pacific Northwest. This would enable her to escape the hell in which she was caught.  
Not only did she know that her twin brother had also made his way to the Derby and had hidden in the cargo hold below deck. He had however collapsed from a wound caused by Iven the horrid, the Saxon clan leader who slaughtered the Viking clan in and around the palace of plenty. Many a Viking also fell that bloody day.
It has never happened before for a ship to allow a passenger of this uncouth girl's nature aboard manly vessels. However, for safety reasons, she was allowed to do so by free will! Little did they know that Ghutra-Etta, the Aislinn girl and attendant to Queen Stella was also aboard the Derby Middlesex to escape death's grasp.
The palace was ablaze along with the villages near and far. Not many lived, nor escaped, but those who did were among the fortunate few. The journey was slow to get underway, but soon they set sail into the unknown.
It may be their last sail since provisions weren’t enough for all aboard! The entire trip could take nearly a month of bleak abyssal moons hovering over both oceans to complete! With one set of sails on the day side and the other on the night side of hell itself. If they were to sink, they would be lost in two oceans forever! Not even halfway, many died of some unnatural ailment and were tossed overboard to fall prey to sharks and then Davey Jone’s locker in the abyss below them. History most often repeats itself. Does it not?
A Soul Sold and Snatched Away
… Therefore, beware, the shadow is stalking you dear one as we are in the Upper Pacific Northwest 1800s where the following events now take place. Be very aware!
The past passed, but brutality never died as time flew for those who survived, yet their memories last forever, while the majority of them are lost to time itself!
There, in the newly adopted township of the descendants of Doppelgänger and Ghutra-Etta, the Aislinn girl who'd mated to create yet another hideous foe from a long-gone history, now hides in the shadows of darkness that never seemed to change!
It has become a place where one is bought and sold as the property of another, yet condoned as a means of control.
They were no exception to be messed with, yet most turned a blind eye and continued about their merry way as if the despicable never existed.
"Girl! The beauty of your hind end entices me, and I am right behind you every step of the way. However, I place my hand on your shoulder ma'lady, but you, boy, be warned, I am straight and not queer like you seem to be. Therefore, lad if you touch me, you're dead meat, but if you're only reading this docx, just keep reading or I'll rip you apart and feed you to the hellhounds, hehe. Snort! Toot-toot! He! He! He! “ Said the taunt of Doppelgänger laying havoc within the tired mind’s eye of Mae Bell Thistle, who’d worked overtime and was beaten, itching with pain all over as if a contortionist.
"When we show love for what we have, we begin to think we have everything we need, but greedy people like you want more of everything they can get from both men and women, and even better than what even the very well-off have! Yes?" Said the night stalker.
“Jealous?” Asked the lone red-hot lady.
“Of you? No. Why should I be? You’re nobody special.” Replied the shadow.
“Well! I never! Humbuggers,” the shady lady snarled in disdain. Live life as if every day is a separate moment from life itself, live in the moment, and live in the country where the air is fresh. Get yourself a bit of brouhaha, make yourself an open pit fire, cook something good, bask in the desert sunshine, and forget your troubles. If you can. I’m hungry but get none.
The fact that one is special in every way makes one appear weird and awkward in statuesque wonder. It keeps one strong, bold, not particularly brave, but peculiar. However, it has the grace of a gazelle when walking hand in hand with the most unusual characters in society. Not that Mae was one of them.
“Who, me? Nah!” Mae told herself as she headed down the cobbled streets of nasty Ville.
“See you again tomorrow my dear hot lady red.” Said one of her peculiar patrons.
“It's my goal to present myself as a level-headed young lady who is always striving to help other young ladies develop into the woman I am. But my back, my aching back. Day in, day out. Night after night, same old thing, but it’s a living I reckon!” Mae told her mentor.
“These times are somewhat harsh, but one's attitude brings one to a mental state of not going insane in the whole process of just living and not worrying where their next meal will come from! You’ll be fine!” replied the eerie shadow in a dark corner.
“Sure I’m well-to-do, but does it matter if one is a poor or rich person like me? I hate the words: flaunting it or strutting yourself like a banty hen in a chicken house filled with roosters. People are so mean these days." Mae replied without any concern whatsoever. Yet she knew sooner or later she’d have to give up her chosen path and just be a ma’am, um, madame, and nothing more than that.
“I challenge any of these slimeballs to hit me with their sharp, sudden, and intentional strikes that leave welts from their bony fangs. Rattlesnakes. I will cut them in half, I will." Virginia said as she interrupted what was a private conversation between her nasty sister and some other not wishing to be seen.
“What do you think you’re doing Virginia? Now get lost will ya? Geesh. Can’t one have a brief private moment to herself?” Mae said scalding her immature meddling sister.
Having a prominent position in such a society as both Mae and Virginia was not all that unusual. Mae was nearing the top of her own food chain so to speak, yet she wanted some alone time even when not totally alone.
Virginia flocked to others just to gain social status and make as many friends as she could.
The mucks mixed and mingled with the mires of the country and nobody really seemed to care who was who, or so it looked like, anyway.
“Yea! Right. Hahaha. T-hehe-t-he. None deserve to be here. Rest assured, Mae, I will attend to that personally." Spoke the shadowy Doppelgänger of visions floating about.
“Yea! Right! You old buzzard! T-hehe-t-he!” Stated Mae.
“You are right my dear Mae, I am a Buzzard as well as a B-rit, uh, Brit, and can switch betwixt both any time I so want!” Said the one from long ago and far away. Perhaps even from below, where it's hell, you know. Even though this shadowy one has always screwed itself, it still gets what it wants atop another.
“Now get along little girl, and don’t come knocking at my door unless it’s absolutely vital. Got it!” Ghutra-Etta Doppelgänger demanded like the – whatever she, uh, maybe he, it was.
“Pretentious ghoul of 1600?” Blew the ocean mist.
“Maybe.” Replied the wild west wind crossing her path.
Despite the unforeseen, Virginia was once again heading down the lonely cumbersome road since she was too pooped to pop. Her essence waxed unaware of her newly determined environment, predestined through her sister, Mae!
She felt irritated, yet content, even though her shadows were close behind, following the same path, trailing her every move. Getting on with her life was a priority and nothing else mattered!
“No! No!” The lonely B-jeukerig arbiter of Bench called out, "Get off of me, creep! This setting is for humans, blast you." Said the lone Bencher while waiting for an unexpected patron of some kind to sit on its facing in anticipation of whatever might appear in the dark, expecting, penetrating heat, one of which that the night possessed! But to have something this awful plop its butt down and spread its stench all over was another thing the doting one hated. “Icky-pooh! Yuck-o! Barf… Gurgle! Gag! Gag! Cough! Ahchew!” Too late. The buzzard let loose! Pooh the size of cannon balls landed all over. The jiggly benched one gasped as emotions hit face first sending shivers throughout; from the top of his back to the souls of her peg-legged claw feet without warning! Eventually, the unsightly creature got up and flew off into the night to find something more to its liking. Carcass or freshly killed cadaver! It had no preference unless it was too old and too pooped to pop.
“Not visions of sugarplums dancing in one’s head, that’s too far-fetched. So get a life, will you?" replied the phantom shadowy twin, watching from an unusual position as the twin shadow had done his duty.
“I have been the stable one, not you, drifter. "Now beat it!" Roars the crippled Bencher of Wild Woods as she reaches the edge of night while the unfamiliar road stretches out before her. She was not one to be played with, but since she couldn’t move; what else could she do, but to comply. It was a cumbersome situation, and she had no choice but to remain idol. “What the blazes, somebody help me?” She cried out, now shivering with the stench of the Doppelgänger smeared all over her.
The comparison of a woman to an inanimate object is difficult for me to make. However, having such a shady lady of the night as a delicious snack was necessary for the sake of my own alter ego and not much more, since it comes after an unforgiving night of being left alone and unattended to by the park's only attendant, a none mate per se! I was not readily available and a willing participant to say the least!
Because the B-itchy benched arbiter was not tangible and had a wooden, um, leg, facing, and well, you know, she was ravaged by the buzzard and jeered by the shadow, but since the thing she was, was not tangible to herself nor others and only made of the stiff knobby branches, um, hardened knock-ers, uh, knots and buttholes of life, it was hacked out a long time ago by a lumberjack, who sold it to a wood smith to make a piece of furniture that was to be used for setting down when a lonely girl's weary legs and aching feet enhance the smoothness to encourage her to dress up or down as many are and sometimes do so that she can leave satisfied as well, and not use it as a beggars bed!
“Well! It may have peg legs but is unable to stand up and walk away anytime it wants. Even such a thing may have feelings, you know!” Said the breezy one passing by.
Although those who had it flaunted it, and strutted their high society stuff, while the pauper-ridden lowlanders wobbled merrily along, without a care in the world, having not one clue of what may come. The whatnots thought better of themselves and crapped all over the rest without a care in the world whether the cur and flea-ridden vermin survived or not!
No one seemed to ‘give a hoot in a holler’ as most country folks said hereabout and the well-off said not to make "Much Ado About Nothing", as old man Willie Shakespeare had long ago so noted.
If you're playing the first fiddle to any Folio, the plot usually revolves around two romantic pairings emerging from the opposite side of life. They come back together again on the other side. Such is life itself! But still, out here, life wasn’t as one thought it would be, and opposites never attracted one another, nor did most anybody else.
It wasn't unusual to see someone appear as something they weren’t or make a spectacle of themselves.
Meddlers Passing
There's a whole lot more to it than this, child. Go get this book before it comes to get you, today! Got it! Ed

The Summer Ghutra A Cool Twist on Traditional Arabian Headwear
The Ghutra, a traditional Arabian headscarf, is a staple of Middle Eastern attire known for its practicality and cultural significance. As temperatures rise in the summer months, the need for a lighter, more breathable version becomes apparent. The Summer Ghutra meets this need, offering a cooler alternative that maintains the elegance and respect for tradition of its heavier counterparts. This article delves into the characteristics, materials, and modern appeal of the Summer Ghutra, showcasing its role in contemporary fashion and its adaptability to the demands of the warmer season.
Characteristics of the Summer Ghutra
The Summer Ghutra retains the classic shape and design of the traditional Ghutra but is distinguished by its fabric and color. Made from lightweight materials such as fine cotton or linen, it allows for better air circulation, helping to keep the wearer cool and comfortable in the heat. The Summer Ghutra often comes in lighter shades, reflecting sunlight and contributing to its cooling effect. While white is a popular choice, pastel colors and subtle patterns are also favored for their aesthetic appeal and ability to complement a wide range of outfits.
Craftsmanship and Materials
The making of a Summer Ghutra emphasizes both functionality and fashion. Artisans select high-quality, breathable fabrics that provide protection from the sun while ensuring comfort. The weave of the fabric is crucial; it must be loose enough to allow for ventilation but tight enough to maintain the garment's shape and durability. The edges of the Summer Ghutra are usually hemmed or adorned with delicate fringes, adding a touch of elegance and craftsmanship.
Modern Adaptations and Styling
In response to the diverse needs of modern wearers, the Summer Ghutra has been adapted in various ways. Designers have introduced innovative patterns and colors, broadening its appeal beyond traditional settings. The Summer Ghutra can be styled in multiple ways, from the classic head wrap to a chic neck scarf, making it a versatile accessory for both men and women. Its lightweight nature also makes it an ideal choice for outdoor events, travel, and casual wear, offering a blend of style and practicality.
Cultural Significance and Fashion Influence
While the Summer Ghutra is celebrated for its practical benefits, it also holds cultural significance. It is a symbol of identity and heritage, often worn with pride at cultural festivities and significant social events. The incorporation of the Summer Ghutra into contemporary fashion collections has further highlighted its cultural importance, bridging the gap between tradition and modernity.
Global Appeal and Trends
The global fashion industry has embraced the Summer Ghutra, recognizing its unique blend of tradition, comfort, and style. It has become a statement piece in the wardrobes of fashion-forward individuals around the world, admired for its versatility and aesthetic appeal. The Summer Ghutra's ability to adapt to different climates and fashion trends has solidified its position as a timeless accessory with universal appeal.
Conclusion: A Symbol of Heritage and Contemporary Style
The Summer Ghutra exemplifies how traditional garments can evolve to meet modern demands without losing their cultural essence. It offers a practical solution to the challenges of the summer climate while serving as a stylish accessory that complements a wide range of outfits. As it continues to gain popularity, the Summer Ghutra stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of Arabian heritage and its capacity to inspire contemporary fashion. Whether worn for its cultural significance, practical benefits, or fashion statement, the Summer Ghutra remains a cherished symbol of elegance and adaptability.

Both men and women often adhere to modest clothing choices, with women commonly wearing abayas over their dresses. For men, the thobe is a staple, emphasizing the importance of modesty. Understanding and respecting these cultural norms is fundamental when selecting dresses in KSA. 
Traditional Attire Speaks Elegance 
Formal events demand traditional attire that exudes elegance. Women can embrace luxurious abayas with intricate embroidery or opt for the timeless beauty of a jalabiya, complemented by matching accessories. Men, on the other hand, have a plethora of those options, often enhanced by a head covering like a ghutra or shemagh. This fusion of tradition and sophistication creates a lasting impression at any formal gathering. 
Business Gatherings and the Smart Casual Appeal 
When it comes to business events, a smart casual approach is often apt. Ladies can explore elegant dresses or stylish blouses paired with modest skirts or trousers. Polo t-shirts for ladies are an excellent choice for a sophisticated yet relaxed look. These versatile tops can be paired with tailored trousers for a smart, business-casual ensemble, striking the right balance. 
Celebrating in Style 
Joyous occasions call for a display of personal style. Women can embrace vibrant dresses or ornate kaftans adorned with intricate details. Men have the opportunity to experiment with those designs or opt for a well-tailored suit that mirrors the festive atmosphere. Comfort is paramount for truly enjoying these celebratory events. 
Outdoor Events 
Saudi Arabia's climatic conditions pose unique challenges, particularly during outdoor events. Choosing lightweight and breathable fabrics becomes imperative. For women, flowing dresses or maxi skirts are ideal, while men can opt for lighter-colored thobes or linen suits. Consider practical yet stylish footwear to complement your outdoor attire. 
Elevating the Ensemble with Footwear 
Footwear is the finishing touch that can elevate your entire look. For women, consider elegant flats or low heels for formal occasions and comfortable sandals for outdoor events. Men can choose classic leather shoes for formal gatherings and embrace loafers or dressy sandals for more relaxed occasions. Aligning your footwear with the event's nature ensures both style and comfort. 
Conclusion 
Choosing the right dresses in KSA is a harmonious blend of cultural awareness, personal flair, and practical considerations. Be it a formal ceremony, a business meeting, or a family celebration, understanding the dress code and cultural nuances is indispensable. In the realm of ladies' fashion, polo t-shirts provide a contemporary twist, offering a versatile and chic option. 
By incorporating traditional elements and staying attuned to local customs, you can confidently step into any Saudi Arabian event, embodying elegance and grace while staying on-trend with polo t-shirts for ladies. Your attire becomes a reflection not just of fashion but of the rich cultural diversity that makes Saudi Arabian events distinctive and memorable.
