A SENSE OF AFRICA

Simply Aaaaamazing!

Well, Lately I have  really been getting  excited  by seeing many Designers create different items using African garments.We all know cloth/garment like Khanga, kitenge (the big sister of Khanga) or chitenge as most of Zambians Malawians and Namibians call it, Is a national icon of many African countries and  has got long and colorful history behind.For instance people still wrap chitenge around their waist or chest or sometimes over the head, used as baby sling  and etc.I mean It is still popular to the extent that it used in weddings,funeral or  many other places.Im happy to see forthcoming Designers who are trying their best to value the African culture simply by creating those products.Through developing different objects to the extent of cloth earings its such a Big Pride.At the moment  I go like yeah 'We are getting there Africa'!We are getting there!.lol.Ideas on other items like clunch,necklace,bracelet,and the like, are so much to be proud of.I have to admit that I love these products soooo bad.
