If you are an attire exporter to African countries or have African friends, you must understand their taboos on patterns and colors. The following are taboos about the patterns and colors of African attire.

 

 

African attire

If you are retailer, welcome to contact us, there are varied african dress styles for your option.

 

Tunisia

Tunisians like green, white and crimson, and they like camels. And taboo pigs, dogs, and cats. Today's Tunisians use sheep to attract foreign tourists, vigorously develop tourism, and strive to enrich the cultural and entertainment life of the masses. Fighting sheep has a history of at least a thousand years in Tunisia.

 

Sudan

The dress of the Sudanese is relatively simple. Most men wear a white scarf and Arab-style robes; women wear white or other colored tulle and do not wear a veil. Sudanese believe that yellow is a sign of beauty, so women especially like to take a smoke bath, which makes the skin yellow.

 

Libya

Libyans love green and taboo black. In addition, cats, pigs, and female human bodies are all taboo patterns.

 

Egypt

 

Egyptians like green and white, but taboo black and blue, and they believe in dreams. In Egypt, you must take off your shoes when entering an Islamic mosque. Egyptians love green, red, and orange instead of purple and blue. They like pyramid-shaped patterns with flowers. It is forbidden to wear clothes with star patterns. In addition to clothes, wrapping paper with star patterns is not welcome. Taboo pigs, dogs, cats, and bears.

 

Algeria

Algeria should avoid using pigs and pig-like pandas as advertising patterns. In some areas of southern Algeria, people have a special interest in color, no matter what kind of building, the color is as large as white, blue, and yellow.

 

It is said that white can reflect light and avoid heat to adapt to the hot, dry climate. Blue can prevent the erosion of pests, and yellow is the color of the desert.

 

Morocco

Moroccans like green, red and black, but avoid white. I like pigeons, camels, and peacock patterns, but taboo six-pointed stars and owl patterns.

 

Ethiopia

Ethiopians like bright and bright colors. Black is forbidden, and religious symbols are also forbidden. When they mourned the dead, they wore light yellow clothing, but they should never wear light yellow clothing when going out as a guest.

 

Mauritania

The background color of the flag of Mauritania is dark green, with a yellow five-pointed star and a yellow crescent in the middle of the flag. Green is a favorite color in Muslim countries, symbolizing prosperity and hope. The star and crescent moon are the symbols of most Muslim countries.

 

Togo

White, green, and purple are positive, while red, yellow, and black have negative connotations.

 

Ghana

Black is unlucky, I like bright colors.

 

Madagascar

Black has a negative sentiment, and people like bright colors.

 

Cote d'Ivoire

Dim and black and white colors should be avoided in packaging. The logo should use bright colors.

 

Sierra Leone

Red is positive, black is considered to have negative meaning.

 

Benin

Red and black are negative.

 

Liberia

Bright colors are popular, while black and white have negative connotations.
