The Zulu women adorn themselves with beaded skirts, belts, arm bands, beautiful necklaces, head pieces, hats, gloves, scarves and shoes. The men wear elaborate headbands indicating status and authority. Historically many of the men’s accessories were made using genuine rare animal hides like leopard skins but now days more common hides and synthetic materials are used. Traditional African Zulu men’s clothing includes batata shoes, blacelo trousers & waistcoats, leopard print vests & shirts and skin headbands.

Africa Smiles is a South African online store where you can find traditional Zulu tribal wear. This may be to dress for a wedding, outfits for a ceremonial occasion or a Zulu costume for a party.
