World Chess Federation Draws a Veil Over Criticism

FIDE’s controversial decision to allow Iran to host the 2017 Women’s World Chess Championship has sparked a furore in the hushed, cerebral ranks of the game’s fans.

In a bold move to silence critics who accuse it of endorsing a regime that enforces gender apartheid, FIDE has announced a new line in compulsory leisure wear for women.

The ‘Harem Collection’, claims fashion guru Yves Saint Kirsan, ‘brings a touch of modern glamour to Islamic ladies’ couture while respecting its tradition of patriarchal oppression’.

Available in a range of colours that include black and white, white and black, and black, the outfit has matching hijab and scarf and a burkini designed by Georgian swimwear expert Zurab Azmaiparashvili.

Launched at a star-studded soirée at Tehran’s exclusive Spearmint Rhino Gentlemen’s Club, the collection was hailed an instant success.

‘I think it’s unacceptable to host a WOMEN’s World Championship in a place where women do not have basic fundamental rights and are treated as second-class citizens . . . I will NOT wear a hijab and support women’s oppression.’ –Nazi Paikidze-Barnes, reigning US Women’s Chess Champion
