Hey,
The word that is being manipulated is the arabic word Khimar, which means cover, any cover. A dress can be a khimar, a curtain can be khimar, a table cloth, a blanket, etc. Khamra is used to mean intoxicant. Khimar and khamra have the same root. Khamra covers the state of mind, whereas khimar covers something physical.
If you look at 24-31, The God is telling the women to draw their khimars OVER THEIR BOSOMS, NOT THEIR HEADS. The Arabic word for head, raas, isn't even in that verse.
Peace.
