Iranian police have warned shop owners against displaying female mannequins wearing underwear or showing off their curves as part of a government campaign against Western influence.
In a letter published in the state-owned Iran daily, the authorities also stated that men should not sell women's underwear, and advised shopkeepers against showing models with neckties and bow-ties, which are considered Western and un-Islamic.
Iranian officials have issued similar warnings in the past, but have ramped up their campaign against Western influence since President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad came to power in 2005.
