1.2.5 MODE OF DRESSING
The Migili
dressing mode displays their cultural heritage, though their dressing is
quite similar to that of the Hausa. Women wear short vests that expose
their belly and long skirts that cover their legs, then they adorn
their hands, forehead, lips and ankles with beads and bracelets. An
interesting feature about their dressing is the plaiting of hair by both
male and female indigenes. Though a bit of civilization has been
introduced into their culture, hence influencing their dressing, a
typical Migili indigene would still appear in colourful beads and
bracelets.
