Wodaabe Short Tops
The Wodaabe are a sub-group of the Fula people, and many of whom are nomads that live in the southern Sahara. Some of the Wodaabe women wear a short, sleeveless top, especially on festive occasions such as the Gerewol (Guérewol) dance ceremonies, when adolescent men dance in order to impress a potential bride. These tops are usually worn with a skirt of some kind.
