A woman was told to leave after turning up in a skirt and a low-cut top at the RXZ Forever Legend motorcycling gathering in Kota Baru, Malaysia’s Kelantan state.

At the same time, another 30 women were given headscarves to wear after they were found not to be properly covered under the organiser’s dress code guidelines, Sinar Harian reported.

RXZ Forever Legend programme director Muhamad Huzaifah Abdul Halim said personnel had been stationed at the entrance to monitor visitors.

“The woman that was turned away was wearing clothing that was too revealing. That is one of the firm rules we set,” he said.

“At the same time, we prepared 100 headscarves for women who were not properly covered, and only about 30 people needed them,” he said at the closing ceremony of RXZ Forever Legend at the Tunjung Rural Transformation Centre on Saturday.
