Ethiopian Tribe Recycles Modern Worldís Discards Into Fashion Accessories
The Daasanach are a semi-nomadic tribe numbering approximately 50,000 individuals who live in the Omo Valley in southern Ethiopia. In the past, the tribe roamed from place to place herding livestock around open areas according to the seasons and the changing availability of water. But over the last fifty years, having lost the majority of their lands, they have also grown dependent to agriculture. Like many tribes in the region, the Daasanach have moved to areas closer to the Omo River, where they attempt to grow enough crops to survive.
French photographer Eric Lafforgue has spent several years documenting the life and culture of these people, and how they have changed under the influence of modern manufactured goods. An interesting fashion trend amongst the Dassanach is their elaborate headgear, which they make from the strangest of materials bottle caps, wristwatches, hairclips, and other discarded pieces of plastic and metal.
The Daasanach spend months collecting bottle caps and scratching around for cash to pay for broken watches, which the women makes into jewelry and wigs. These are worn by both men and women, young and old.
Younger girls and children get the most basic version of the wig, while the oldest women are treated to the heaviest numbers with the most embellishment.
Men are only allowed to wear the bottle top wigs until they marry - after that, they create small clay headpieces decorated with a colourful harlequin pattern and enlivened with a feather, although the latter is only allowed after a hunt or a successful clash with an enemy.
The young men love to wear necklaces and earrings while the girls have bigger muscles because they do the most difficult work like carrying water, To prevent their headgears from getting spoiled while they sleep (apparently, they never take them off).

French photographer Eric Lafforgue has spent several years documenting the life and culture of these people, and how they have changed under the influence of modern manufactured goods. An interesting fashion trend amongst the Dassanach is their elaborate headgear, which they make from the strangest of materials bottle caps, wristwatches, hairclips, and other discarded pieces of plastic and metal.
The Daasanach spend months collecting bottle caps and scratching around for cash to pay for broken watches, which the women makes into jewelry and wigs. These are worn by both men and women, young and old.
Younger girls and children get the most basic version of the wig, while the oldest women are treated to the heaviest numbers with the most embellishment.
Men are only allowed to wear the bottle top wigs until they marry - after that, they create small clay headpieces decorated with a colourful harlequin pattern and enlivened with a feather, although the latter is only allowed after a hunt or a successful clash with an enemy.
The young men love to wear necklaces and earrings while the girls have bigger muscles because they do the most difficult work like carrying water, To prevent their headgears from getting spoiled while they sleep (apparently, they never take them off).

FEATURE - Äthiopien: Modische Recycling Accessoires
Ethiopian Tribe Recycles Modern Worldís Discards Into Fashion Accessories
The Daasanach are a semi-nomadic tribe numbering approximately 50,000 individuals who live in the Omo Valley in southern Ethiopia. In the past, the tribe roamed from place to place herding livestock around open areas according to the seasons and the changing availability of water. But over the last fifty years, having lost the majority of their lands, they have also grown dependent to agriculture. Like many tribes in the region, the Daasanach have moved to areas closer to the Omo River, where they attempt to grow enough crops to survive.

FEATURE - Äthiopien: Zukünftige 'Fussballstars'
The football stars of tomorrow
Thousands of Football shirts of Arsenal, Manchester, Chelsea, Milano, etc end up their carreer in... Ethiopia. Sold in the deep south, in the Omo Valley, those second hand clothes are bought by the local tribes. Most of them ignore the meaning of those shirts, and just buy them for the color, the logo, or the shape.
No warrior will go out without his little pillow/seat.
Some, like in Hamer tribe wear at the top of the head a clay helmet where they can put some ostrich feathers when they make a special action, like killing a wild animal, or...a man.
Those tribes won’t exist in few years as the ethiopian governement has launched a huge plan to develop the area.
Soon, a highway coming from Mombassa - Nairobi will pass thru the villages to reach Addis Ababa.
