Anyone know what Eritrean man was wearing? Very nice
I’m Eritrean but I’m not too familiar with the name of the suit but the red robe he’s wearing is called a kaba. It’s worn on special occasions in both Eritrean/Ethiopian culture.
The special occasion is specifically Weddings. For normal people, it is supposed to be worn on weddings in church. That is where Kaba for the entire villages used to be kept and the priests would put it on the couple when they are performing the covenant of marriage. I have also seen couple celebrating milestone anniversary wear it. Nowadays, churches have their own and couples buy or rent for further celebrations as shown in the video above. Elites and chosen village elders had their version without a lot of embellishments, mostly plain black, and Dino that is more embellished. The suit is a modern Kidan habesha. Traditionally in Tigrinya we wear Ejetebab.
🇪🇷! They need to show the Tsada Kidan on day 2!
My man wore AF1s one his wedding day.
I really hope Africa is successful in keeping their cultures and traditions alive while achieving prosperity.
I like that the men are given a chance to shine and wear beautiful clothes too
Very beautiful couples
What’s up with all the filters? I’m sure they’re beautiful without them
Holy ravioli, maybe I'm just used to european wedding attire imagery, but despite not liking those, I'm finding these wardrobes to be fire, specially Eritrea's & Ethiopia's, but they all are amazing.
