Jennifer Lopez's revealing performance in Riyadh sparks debate over women's dress codes in Saudi Arabia

Jennifer Lopez performed in a revealing bodysuit at a fashion show in Riyadh, sparking mixed reactions online. While some praised Saudi Arabia's evolving dress codes, others criticized the double standards for foreign performers versus local women. Saudi Arabia has relaxed women's clothing restrictions in recent years, ending the mandatory burka in 2015 and easing abaya requirements in 2018. However, many argue that local women still face significant limitations. Critics on social media highlighted the disparity, questioning whether Saudi women could wear similar outfits without facing consequences. They emphasized that the changes appear more favorable to tourists and performers than to local citizens.
