Eritrean Fashion



Eritrea Fashion provides an overview of the Eritreans' admired style in clothing and cosmetics. They are quite fashionable and through their habitual practice of dressing, this fact gets reflected. The style of the residents of Eritrea differs with the region.

In this respect, it must be mentioned that the traditional wear of Eritreans varies from the conventional Kunama dressing style. Usually the Kunama people prefer to wear lustrous clothes, whereas traditionally the Tigre and Tigrinya people dress up in burnished white costumes, which have a touch of conventional Oriental and Indian dressing style. On the other hand, the women belonging to Rashaida ethnic group wear various types of scarf adorned with jewelry.

The Eritrean capital city of Asmara also contributes a lot in the field of Eritrea Fashion. One of the key industries of this place is textile industry. Since a long time this picturesque city is considered to be an informal one in terms of costumes and wear. Here most of the men dress themselves in sports jackets and suits while attending dinners and receptions. However, sometimes even more casual approach is seen in the terms of dresses.

The office going women wear pants or dresses and in the formal occasions much better pantsuits with heels and stockings get preference.
