African clothing and fashion is a diverse topic that provides a look
into different African cultures. Clothing varies from
brightly colored textiles, to abstractly embroidered robes, to
colorful beaded bracelets and necklaces.Since Africa is such a large and diverse continent,
traditional clothing differs throughout each country. For example, many
countries in West Africa have a "distinct regional dress styles that are
the products of long-standing textile crafts in weaving, dyeing, and
printing", but these traditions are still able to coexist with western
