Shuangcheng City flying across Asia: the heart of freedom

In the Iran embassy visa office, we see a wearing red floral kerchief Persian beauty. She lifted her eyes to the moment, I have a beautiful feeling. Beautiful smile, to greet us in English: "Hello, I'm from tehran." Provoked girlfriend is jealous to say: "wearing the scarf can be so beautiful?!"

Can not hide the heart of freedom head

The plane landed for Tehran, all women wear headscarves captain circular machine. Follow the new rules, we came to Iran. The first woman we met in Iran native was a black gown, the customs officer is in line with our impression of Iran women's image, her expression calm and serious, when she turned into a seat with a swing of robes, a kind of a thousand li away.

A few days later, the Iran women's conservative image priors was broken in tehran. The streets of Tehran is not entirely a black so depressed, no matter where we go, always can see the wearing colored scarf girl, but with some different, as if casually draped over the head, but safely, wind does not fall. Unlike me, scarves always slide down the shoulders, in trouble, let me envy their skill comes.

There is also a must since Tehran beauty out can only wear a scarf, a hair not publicity, they will come to a "snail shell in a Buddhist sites", the only bangs dressing exposed to grow more enchanting, usually the Liu Haichui HISTEP tower, the top be riotous with colour scarf. Smooth forehead, nose, face contour, intake of beauty for scarf adds mystery.

These modern girls since dare to wear flowers blossom on headscarves, nature also won't wear loose robes, they love to wear body in the long coat, show the waist soft lines. Leave the deepest impression to me is a beauty seen at Pahlavi in front of the palace, she wears a light blue silk scarves, slip a tuft of bangs blonde, look around charmingly in brilliant sunshine, in high spirit.

We met a couple in the carpet museum nearby, the girl dress simply, but also wearing printed scarf. The girl is very frank, she told us, Iran women are very beauty, the kind of "beauty and health" momentum is very traditional in. Mazan Satabi's painting "I grew up in Iran" have a detail, her grandmother every day fresh jasmine flowers in bra, until the old still fragrant.

After the 1979 Islamic revolution, wearing a turban, wear robes into daily compulsory. Go up century 90 time later period, advocate "the dialogue of Civilizations" Khatami was elected president, Iran women's wear has gradually liberalized, a manifestation of this is considered Iran's reformist strength rising. Some of the big city brave girl also began a top-down "reform", they ignore the "hair" temptation "is taboo, the more hair gel is more, more and more colourful scarves; even wear tight pants nine points, his ankles, sandals also nails painted color variegated.

However, in recent years, the Iran government management of women dress also gradually tightened, Iran's parliament passed the "law" of dress, send men and women police special police patrol Shangjie discipline. Now, this city in Tehran, see "deviant" women, but only the hijab and the size of the clothes, toe is extinct; and to the small city and rural areas, basically or black robes.

Even in Tehran, no more choice in the state-run work units or on the University's women, only wear does not reveal the stature of the black or blue knee-length robes, wearing the hair and ears covered Yanyanshishi black turban. In 2009, Iran's presidential election triggered protests, a female student in the streets of Tehran demonstrations were shot in the chest, she was lying in a pool of blood scene, was taken by mobile phone, quickly spread throughout the network. Lively life quickly in two minutes to wither, make people sigh, she and many wear color scarf girl from Iran, has a black cover not live, free heart.
