What is Guyana clothes?

Answer 1

Guyana is known as the "Land of six peoples". The main ethnic groups in Guyana, in order of their Immigration, are: Amerindians (the indigenous people of Guyana), Europeans, Africans, East Indians, Portuguese, and Chinese.

The traditional dress of the Amerindians depends on what tribe they are from. The costumes generally consist of grass skirts, calabash bikini-like tops for the women, and some form of headdress. The traditional dress for the Africans is usually made from bright and bold african prints -- the women wearing dresses and colourful headdresses, the men wearing dashikis (or at least that's what I've heard them being called back home; a simple Google search should help you to get a better idea). The East Indian women wear saris, salwars, and ghararas and the men wear kurtas. The Chinese women wear silk (or silk-like) dresses in traditional Chinese form with Chinese floral patterns, the men wear the same as jackets and pants. I have never seen the Portuguese or the Europeans in traditional wear, so I cannot say what is typical for those groups.
