The traditional clothing in Sub-Saharan Africa consists of a variety of hats known as kufis or kofias, shirts called dashikis and women's wrappers known as pagnes or kangas. In North Africa, the djellaba and fez are the standard dress. Each tribe our country will have a unique tribal or national dress.
