Man is a cultural being that lives in a specific geographical environment. The relative of man's culture varies from continent, region, country, state and even local levels. In every culture, there are always specific values that differentiate one culture to another such as clothing, language, and even general appearance.
Traditional wears are dresses that are designed to suit the culture of a particular group of people, from continent, region, country or even state levels.
Such wears can only be modified over time to improve on the culture of people which gives them a unique identity and separate them from other group of people.
Africa today has a population of over 1.5 billion people, but there are other smaller groups that still differentiate people in the African continent with other people. You hear of Nigerian wears, South African attire and vice versa, all of these are just meant for the evaluation and composition of our uniqueness.
