Apparently, the local Afghan burqa industry isn't doing as well as it used to during the Taliban heyday. There's fierce competition from China (which makes them cheaper), and younger women are choosing to not cover their faces. Of course, most women still wear those ugly blue sacks, and it has actually increased outside of Kabul, since U.S. troop withdrawal.
Chinese Burqas $10.00 - $20.00
Afghanistan Burqas: $20.00 - $60.00
China making burqas? Who would have thought.

Sexy Burka Halloween Costume No Longer Available On Sears Website
So, Sears was selling this "Sexy Middle Eastern Arab Girl Burka Halloween Costume" on their website, but now it's no longer available. Wanna bet it was pulled because there were complaints from a certain segment of society, then again, maybe it was just popular and sold out.
