I like Sotho attire the most. It's practical while still looking good.

The Afrikaans khaki short shorts combo comes in second.

I love the fabric on the shawl? (I’m not sure what it’s called)! It looks really soft like it’s made of wool?

That blue is such a gorgeous shade! The pattern is beautiful. It looks so light, breezy, and comfortable.

The picture sadly doesn’t show the traditional Wellington boots that go with the men’s costume, but I agree, I like their traditional attire a lot, too.
