Somalis have the best when it comes to men.

Too much work. I voted for Sahelians. They have the fanciest traditional attires of all.

Hausa attire:

Pretty cool.

I voted for Somalis (most beautiful), but the most unique cultural attire is from the Dogon people of West Africa.

I just know Somali men have the most boring attire, white sheets.. very uninspired.

Do you really believe they are dressed like that everyday? Its a festival thing

Perhaps eliminate the more vague categories such as "Coastal West Africans", "Central Africans", and "other Cushites"...it's hard to find distinct wedding look for them.

Coastal West Africans hands down

Poll was limited to 10 options. I had to generalize.

I know it's for festivals but it looks really cool.

For women, definitely Habesha (all cultures from Tigray to Harari to Bilen).

For men, I'd say Nigerian.

 

[MARAQ DIGAAG]

African Americans

I like habesha women's attire. it's simple yet elegant looking.

I also like the cape thing they wear for weddings.

I'm not sure what the men's traditional wear is though

Traditional Maghreb:

Habesha women have a great traditional dress tbh.
