This is the early 60s. wasn't a long time ago.

Somalis wore Western suits as well during these times. Arabs wore suits under their thobe as well.

Still doesn't make my statement untrue that the resemblance doesn't mean we copied their style.
Those are in the 50s and they were long time ago as in urban centers Somalis wore Arab clothes back then

Brother this is late 1958 to be precise. 2 years before the early 60s.

Somalis have been wearing this attire way before the 9th century. This was recorded by the Chinese during that period.
