Historical Red Sea Textiles?
Hello everyone! I'm designing fabric dolls for a male fantasy character who lives and travels around the red sea area. I'm considering the doll fabrics would be from Yemen, Saudi, or Jordan & Syria would be fine too. Would it be alright to ask for any recommendations on resources where I can base the textile designs for the dolls? Or take inspiration from. I was thinking it would be colorful with designs like you see in a shemagh but not limited to it, and are common or day-to-day historical fabrics used to sew different items. When I search for textiles, usually the results are related to clothes people wear. Or would they be the same? Or should I just ditch the idea and use plain colored fabrics? Thank you!
Edit: More info on the character if this helps. He is an irreligious magic-user. Somewhat similar to AC Altair leaning towards anti-hero, but he's more of a leaving enemies injured type of guy. He's not really a hero who gets out of his way to help, but acts out of personal reasons, vengeful justice. The dolls are tools he uses related to his magic to expand its range.
