Why no one makes arabs clothes, are they that hard ?

I've went digging in the galleries to find some arab clothes "like saudis or even moroccans", there is almost nothing, knowing we're talking about a whole culture, very weird...
Same for females, no "djellaba" or "abaya", if anybody is willing to make, i'm pretty sure a lot of us could appreciate

Yes, loose draping clothing has historically been hard to make - that's why a lot of dresses have corseted tops, for example. The Platinum Club has some outfits (under the Moroccan Dreams label, as I recall) and predatron has a Lo-Res Arab Male set. Now that we have dForce for Daz Studio we may see more.

For men:

If M4 still counts: https://www.daz3d.com/moroccan-dreams-for-michael-4, see also the HG Amal textures for it. Mayby Berber and not Arabian but similar.

since they are intended to be low resolution they really aren’t up to close scrutiny.
If you're not looking at a more conservative/traditional outfit like abaya... I would point out Oskarsson's very good Modern Muslim woman outfit for Genesis 2 at Rendo.
It looks great on Genesis 8. I'll post a render when it's ready...
Here's Oskarsson's Modern Muslim Woman outfit for G2F (Rendo) plus the x-art Fashion Hijab.
Genesis 8 is great with autofit, so this works out pretty well. The figure in this one is Gail for G8F by Mousso, with a few nose adjustments based on my preferences.
There's the expected autofit issues in the thigh region (since the shirt goes below the thigh like a dress), but you can work with it. I did a minimal amount of work here.
As a Muslim Myself , I found this frustrating until Daz implemented cloth Dynamics.
And of course I model my own conformers as well for conservative Female outfits
Well the younger males where mostly western style clothing and even the females do in large part nowadays.
There is a way to make and drape a good fascimile using Artful Physics Tailor from Jim Huginin on Patreon but you would have to donate at least $10 to his Patreon APT project at least one month to use it.
Also, I don't know the 'Simplicity' style pattern that would but used to make such clothing.
I, or rather APT, made that Madonna robe in less than 5 minutes (the posing took a lot longer though). I had to make the head scarf from a DAZ Studio plane primitive & dForce though so APT is very limited for now if only created the robe & the shoulder cloth.
I'd like more draping outfits for the Gen 2 & 3 females, as well. Belly dancer outfits can only take you so far.
