2) Burnouse; Author: anonymous; Date: 1860 - 1870; Provenance: North Africa; Provider: Amsterdam Museum; Copyright: public domain.
The burnouse originated in North Africa. Consisting of a long loose hooded coat, it was traditionally worn by Bedouin tribesmen in what is now known as the Middle East. It was typically made of coarse wool, usually white. These long cloaks, worn as evening capes became popular in Europe beginning in the 1840s - they continued to be worn into the 20th century. The first of these garments is white wool with interwoven stripes of blue silk and tassels at the hood, the silk stripes suggest it was made for Europe; the second is fabricated of a lightweight beige and black striped wool with lilac silk edging noted by the museum as ‘probably added in Europe’, indicating that the garment was brought to Europe to be worn, not as an ethnographic object. These are noted as women’s costumes by the providing museum.
The Amsterdam Museum is a museum of the history of Amsterdam through its art and cultural objects. The museum has an extensive collection of garments and accessories - all online. This collection contains garments from the 18th through the 20th centuries as well as fabrics and fashion illustrations. The collection encompasses Mens, Womens and Childrens clothing.
All three character together: The Seer, The Falconer, The Sand Caller

So, your gaming buddies are visiting from out of town but you don't have anything ready or the regular game fell through or you are at a con and the DM who was supposed to run the thing had an emergency. This is one of many options.

The Desert Tribes - A small concept art/character design focused project!
☆ Check the full project here at my Artstation or Website! ☆
The Falconeer, another character for my Desert Tribes project! Due to her close connection with her life companion, the Falconeer is able to see and act through her Hawk’s eyes. She’s the desert’s eyes and nothing can get away from her sight.
Working on this character, I focused more on dark colors and hues of brown and red. The inspiration was mostly from Berber tribes and their detailed clothes, that have so many amazing details and textures.
