Can anyone advise where I can buy or hire an Arab Sheik outfit. Ideally needed today ready for an event on Sunday. Thanks

A bed sheet should do the trick

you need to arrive by camel as well to create a big whoosh. There must be somewhere you can rent one at short notice.

Is this for a protest or bedroom fantasy play?
I could lend you a kufiya if you want. Red and white, black and white, green or purple. Only got the agal in black though.
For a very reasonable fee.
Pretty sure you could get the rest of the outfit- the white blouse/dress/prayer suit down abbeydale road.

if you do manage to find somebody to rent you a camel, make sure that it's an actual camel, and not a dromedary. There's been a lot of that, I've heard.

that's like some Arab buying or renting a Rolls Royce and getting a Bentley.

1 Walk into bedroom.
2 Put on dressing gown.
3 Walk into kitchen.
4 Place tea towel on head.
5 Job done.

If it works for the infants at their nativity each year...
