It isn't very complicated.

If you want to be a reporter in another country you have to dress like the locals. You have to blend in to get access to people and locations to actually observe what is going on.

As far as "ceremonial dress" goes, there are traditionalist Christian churches here that believe their women should cover their head while worshiping. Don't Amish women generally cover their heads in public?

St. Paul, in I Cor. 1-l: 24, tells women to cover their hair in church.
