Clothing

Tanzanians are traditionally dressed, which reflects this. With the bulk of the population being either Christian or Muslim, they are highly religious. Tanzanians appreciate modesty in clothing as well, and this is seen in the way they dress. Kanga, a rectangular cotton textile manufactured from cotton, is the primary traditional dress for women in Tanzania. Kanga is a local product made in Tanzania and Kenya with printed designs and inscriptions. They divide the kanga in half, securing one half around their head and shoulders and the other half around their waist like a skirt. Female kanga is more than simply clothing; it is a revered tradition that allows women to express their thoughts, opinions, and values.

In Tanzania, men frequently favor less vibrant materials than women. Males in Tanzania typically wear kanzu, a robe that is either white or beige in color. Originally, silk was used to make Kanzu, but these days, polyester and other synthetic materials are utilized instead. Tanzanian men dress appropriately for official engagements by donning a kanzu, a traditional cap, and either a European-style suit jacket or a "bisht," a traditional cloak.
