As the Taliban took over Afghanistan, the new regime has ordered women to strictly wear hijab when in public, while those attending private universities are mandated to wear an abaya robe and niqab covering most of the face.

As a protest,  Afghan women have started an online campaign by posting photographs of themselves in traditional Afghan attire. They are using #DoNotTouchMyClothes, #AfghanistanCulture to share photographs of traditional Afghan attire, highlighting the richness of their culture.
