Abstract: The ready-made clothing industry plays a major role in satisfying the needs of people of different generations. Many studies have addressed the implementation of designs for different categories in the complex to meet their needs according to the nature of this category. However, within the researcher's knowledge, previous research and studies did not address women's clothing for Hajj, especially since this category was not small. The researcher also drew attention to some obstacles that she relied on, which is a summary of the research problem, such as women being exposed to sunstroke or losing their luggage, which prompted the researcher to conduct some personal interviews with women pilgrims, which confirmed the research problem. The research aimed to reach designs for women's clothing for Hajj that limit exposure to sunlight and preserve their luggage and personal belongings. The research sample included (12) women as a basic sample and (12) women as a survey sample, ranging in age from (45: 55) years. The results indicate that the reliance on the modern design of women's Hajj clothing under study depends on a source of inspiration. Functional Islamic clothing has achieved the approval of the research sample according to the axes of the functional and aesthetic aspects scale under study, compared to traditional clothing.
