Handwoven Couples Matching Traditional Cloth for Men and Women Wedding Habesha Cloth

The traditional clothing for men is called a "kuta" or "kemis" while women wear a dress known as a "habesha kemis" or "netela." The fabric used in making these garments is typically made from cotton or silk, and the colors and patterns hold cultural significance. The most commonly used colors are white, beige, and light brown, but bright and vibrant colors like red, green, and blue are also popular.

Handwoven fabric is a crucial element in Habesha couples' clothing. Men's attire consists of a long, ankle-length shirt with a rounded collar, often decorated with embroidered designs. The shirts are made from handwoven fabric with intricate patterns, sometimes featuring geometric shapes or floral motifs. The fabric is handwoven on a traditional loom, a skill that has been passed down through generations.

For women, the habesha kemis is a floor-length, loose-fitting dress made of handwoven fabric. The dress is often adorned with colorful embroidery around the neckline, sleeves, and hem. The embroidery is meticulously crafted with vibrant threads and may feature floral patterns or intricate motifs.

Both men and women decorate their clothing with jewelry, such as necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, to complement their outfits. Additionally, men often wear a specially designed scarf called a "shama" around their shoulders, which adds an extra touch of elegance to their attire.

The Habesha couples' clothing is not just about fashion; it reflects the cultural identity, history, and pride of the Ethiopian and Eritrean people. The intricate handwoven fabric and embroidery are a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of the artisans who create these beautiful garments.
