It tells us about individual people: their personality, age, place in society and so on. If we want to know more about society, we can look at traditional clothing.The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colors red, gold and green in the clothing. The first color stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves(奴隶),The second is for the rich resources of the African earth, and the third represents the grasslands of home.The patterns on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “, which stands for “unity. Another pattern is a rectangular（矩形） box, which represents “strength.Because clothing has a strong social meaning, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For instance, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband differently according to the importance of the social event.Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose(宽松的) clothing.
