Defiant Mashael al-Jaloud, 33, turned heads and drew gasps as she strutted through a Riyadh mall last week without a body-shrouding abaya. The human resources specialist strolled through a mall wearing nothing but a burnt orange top over baggy trousers.
In the crowd there were audible gasps and arched eyebrows. Women veiled head-to-toe stared and some mistook her for a celebrity or model, asking: 'Are you famous?'
Jaloud laughed and told the shocked people that she was a normal Saudi woman.
