| dc.description.abstract | Kenya is an iconic Africa Safari destination and home to the Maasai tribe. the Maasai are well known for their unique culture and tribal dresses. the Massai originated in the lower nail Valley, Central Tanzania and northern Kenya during the 17th and 18th century. the Maasai Mara got its name from the local people who called the land which means “splled” in Maa . Maa is the name given to the Maasai language. Clothing various sex, age and place young men wear black for several months after their circumcision. although red is a favourite colour among maasai black ,blue checked and stripped cloth are also worn together with multi colored Africans garments. In the 1960 the Maasai begin to replace sheep skin hides and animals came for more medical materials “ cotton”. The cloth used to wrap around the body is called “shuka” in the maa language. I am inspired by their red checked dresses the beaded jewelry. they wear simple dresses and heavy beaded jewelry. There way of living is so simple. I wanted to experiments with simple dresses to change them into modern dresses .Maasau people did not use seam lines, darts cut lines etc. they just tie a knot by folding the fabric and the wear it and hold at fabric by using belt now I will give them cut lines dart seam lines and ease allowance etc. | |
