Practical Uses Of African Fabric
African Fabric Month is being celebrated by Cultured Expressions to raise awareness of the many creative and practical use of African Fabrics For the month of September, the brand is urging its DIY audience to engage in educational & culturally relevant events to honor African civilizations that produce real Fabric.
Â
Â
To highlight some of the continent’s most popular textile arts, Cultured Expressions has supported the endeavor. An increasing number of fashion designers and retailers are incorporating hints of African culture into their creations, as well as home furnishings. All of these fabrics, as well as many others from Africa, are being utilized to produce one-of-a-kind clothing and accessory designs, as well as home decor items like quilts, purses, and pillows.
Â
Â
African textile craftsmanship is one of the greatest pleasures, in contrast to negative portrayals of the continent that are so prevalent in the media. African Fabric Month is another fun vehicle to reach people,” said Lisa Shepard Stewart, writer, designer, and owner of Cultured Expressions, about her passion for creating activities and events that expose peoples of all backgrounds to beauty of the fabrics and allow them to embrace the culture.
This month’s celebration of African Fabrics Month is a global phenomenon despite Stewart’s home base in New Jersey, United States.
Â
Â
This project has a month-long deadline in order to offer DIYers of all skill levels an opportunity to show off their skills in areas like sewing, quilting, and more.
Â
Â
African fabric has and continues to play an important role in the exchange of information, knowledge, and social relationships within specific groups. It is not only the selection of color and kind of thread that has a spiritual and historical meaning but the ornamental elements, symbols, and figural compositions that are closely linked to historical proverbs or events. As a kind of storytelling, they impart important information to a person or a family, or a broader social group.
Â
Â
Social and political commentary and commemoration of special events are common uses for African Fabric, such as weddings, funeral service commemorations, and the naming of children. Historically, chiefs and regional officials were in charge of distributing and controlling the use of these items.
Â
They are worn as skirts around the waist and hips, or as tunics and robes for personal ornamentation. It is fairly uncommon for African fabrics to be utilized as backgrounds for public celebrations.
Â
Â
However, centuries of tradition as well as a culture of crafting wonderful items give some African communities’ clothing an elegance and vibrancy that it does not experience within the Western world, which prefers conformity over individual expression. African fabrics are often used to provide warmth or cover.
Â
Â
Fashion designers throughout the world employ traditional African textiles such as Ankara and wax designs to create skirts, shirts, and head wraps, among other things. There is, however, a plethora of other things you do with African fabric. All it requires is a little imagination to create a colorful aesthetic that combines exquisite African flair with contemporary elements.
