Eritrean women dancing in traditional zurias

A zuria is a dress worn by the Tigrinya women in Eritrea and Ethiopia.[1] Traditional zurias often feature intricate designs,[2] go to the ankles, and are accessorized with a netsela, a white, scarflike accessory worn about the shoulders and head. [3] Zurias come in different forms and designs with an extra sheen due to the demands of fashion. Zurias are worn during holidays, weddings, or parties.
