DASHIKI DASHIKI

The Dashiki is a beautiful garment  worn in West Africa by both men and women, that covers the top half of the body. 

It was made popular in the western parts of the world by Oba (Yoruba word for king) Ofuntola Oseijeman Adelabu Adefunmi, who was born Walter Eugene in Detroit, Michigan, USA in 1928. He became interested in African Studies at the age of 16, and travelled to Haiti at the age of 20 in order to be exposed to African religion from indigenous Africans. Soon after, he returned to the U.S. and began a small scale manufacturing business which included African attire, most notably dashikis.

 It is very popular and can be found in most closets in Africa. It's the African version of Joseph's coat of many colours.  More reasons why you should get one.
