Traditional clothing in Zambia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Zambia has 73 tribes. Many of these do not have a traditional dress. They wear animal skins, strips/pieces of cloth, beads, traditional rattles, etc for their traditional ceremonies. However, a chitenge, which is an African coton material is worn often as a traditional outfit. This is the norm throughout Africa. There are some tribes like the Lozi who have traditional outfits. The wear flared dresses (both men and women) which are called musisi. The styles for men and women are different of course. The men wear a flared skirt with a waistcoat made of African print. The men also wear this with a traditional cotton hat, which is commonly red in colour. Because of many tribes that don't have a traditional dress per se, it is taken that the Zambian national dress is a misisi. Sometimes senior government officials or other influential people will wear a musisi to grace a special occassion. There are other traditional outfits but they are not so commonly seen unless they are worn by their chief/chieftainess at a traditonal ceremony. I don't know what these other outfits are called.
