Mise En Scene (costume) for Citizen Khan
The costumes that can be seen are very stereotypical for an Asian family. Mr Khan is wearing very smart clothing which is stereotypical as Asian families are always associated with being very smart. He is also wearing a Kufi (a Muslim hat/cap) as this helps to create realism as he is a Muslim. Mrs Khan is wearing a Saree type of clothing which also adds to the realism the producers and director is trying to create. The daughter is seen to be in more Western clothing which is also stereotypical as it is thought that usually when an Asian is brought up in a Western society they take to the culture more. Whereas the parents do not and choose more traditional attire.
