Dress

Dress

Women are careful in their dress to keep the lower part of their bodies covered; however, they are much more casual from the waist up. A person is expected to dress well if at all possible. Clothes are often an important part of the bride price. New clothes are expected for certain holidays. Money that should go for food will sometimes be spent for clothes A person who dresses well will automatically be given more respect. Older men do not appreciate the dress of westernized young people, especially the tight jeans and shorts.

Older married women cover their heads. This is not as prevalent among younger married women. A person who has a rendezvous at a government office and who is not well dressed is not at all appreciated by those working in that office.
