Description
Revised version of this pic hime1999.deviantart.com/art/Al…Revising as in adding West (Gharb/Portuguese Algarve) to the East (Sharq/Spanish Andalusia).
Tried to stick it as much as possible to the contemporary fashion, but took liberty with the cloth patterns. Maybe I should have added some strips too. :/

Hey!
Here's some references that might help:
www.moorishmaiden.org/assets/u…
www.islamicspain.tv/Arts-and-S…
Also, try looking at the styles in the pictures of the contemporary people.
Hopefully that helps!

The first link's site was put down, i guess. Its not there anymore.
Your link for Ziryab is perfect! Ziryab himself is perfect! *A* He's so amazing.
Thank you so much for the links again.

I've always had trouble to find proper clothes references for Al-Andalus, outside of military garbs =/
You did a great job

Inorite!
I mean, there are descriptions in essays, but most of them are contemporaries of Ziryab, so I had to do more hunting for contemporary pictures, especially for the later years, and take a shot on how it would have been. The lack of details on the pictures then was not helping either. :/
