I'd imagine limiting a woman's choice of clothing by banning head dresses is also offensive to women's rights as it's dictating what they can or cannot wear. Banning an item of clothing that doesn't incite hatred is a pointless endeavour, I think restricting it like you would a hoodie or a mask in certain places is fine but a ban is flawed.

The wearing of burkhas etc is tantamount to wearing a tee shirt stating women are second-class citizens and unequal to their male counterparts - the property of men - is that not hatred? Just because the law hasn't quite recognised that yet doesn't mean it isn't and doesn't mean it won't.
