There are many touristic areas in Egypt where special concerns are not necessary; however, in less touristic places, relatively modest dress is recommended.
Women should avoid very tight clothing, keep their shoulders and knees covered, and avoid very revealing necklines. Men should also avoid particularly revealing clothing as all Egyptians generally dress more modestly than in many parts of Europe and America.
For instance, wearing shorts is not very common among Egyptians. Dressing with relative modesty is a way of respecting the local culture.
