Traditional Habesha attire is known for its simplicity and grace. Often made with handwoven cotton (called shemma), these garments are decorated with colorful borders (tilet) that represent different regions, tribes, or styles.
Men typically wear kemis with a shawl (netela), while women wear zuria — flowing dresses that can be styled for weddings, church ceremonies, or family celebrations.
These clothes are more than beautiful — they represent respect, dignity, and a deep connection to our ancestors.
