The Xhosa traditional attire is usually made up of a combination of beaded fabric, aprons and long skirts.
The usual colours are white and black, yellow and black, red and black or blue and black.

Important components of the Xhosa attire for ladies is also the “doek” or headtie which is usually black with beaded or embroidered designs. These days you can have ladies or Makotis (brides) wearing the Isicholo (hat) too.
