Male costumes. Habit of the “Hanifites”
This stamp illustrates the Habit of the Hanifites, a specific and refined variant of traditional Tunisian costume, often linked to the intellectual or religious elite of the Hanifite rite. The character is represented wearing a Jebba in mauve shades, topped with a very fine brown drape, as well as the traditional white turban. This program promotes the diversity of clothing styles within Tunisian culture and testifies to the persistence of these codes of historical elegance which continue to forge the visual identity of the nation through the centuries.
