THE TIMELESS STYLE OF TRADITIONAL DASHIKI

Anyone who thinks a dashiki is simply a T-shirt couldn't be more wrong. In fact, it's much more ornate than a regular T-shirt. A traditional, loose-fitting garment with a V-neck, often embroidered, the dashiki is generally worn by men, but it can also be worn by women, either casually or as a shirt. THE dashiki Everyday shirt features little or no embroidery, while high-end dress shirts are typically made from silk brocade and may feature intricate embroidery on the cuffs and around the collar.

THE HISTORY OF DASHIKI

The dashiki has a rich history, and finds its origins in West African fashion. At one time it was a shirt that covered the entire chest and it was also popular in a longer version, the grand boubou. It wasn't just about fashion. It was loose and the fabric light enough to be worn in the sun and intense heat, which suited the West African climate well. Brocade fabric is ideal for this! THE dashiki transitioned into American culture in the 1960s, when it became an affirming symbol of the struggles of African Americans in the United States at that time. It was first made in Harlem around this time. Today, dashiki is popular throughout the United States.

TRADITIONAL PRINTED DASHIKIS

Today you will see dashikis featured in popular culture around the world. They are worn in movies, mentioned in books and worn by celebrities around the world. Many stars have worn printed dashikis during their press appearances, including Stevie Wonder and Sammy Davis Jr. If you've watched the Disney movie, Enchanted, you'll even see a dashiki worn during a musical number! The garment is worn today for modern Kwanzaa celebrations and is particularly popular during Black History Month each February, when West Africans celebrate their heritage.
