Fashion gone wild!

I see quite a bit of crazy fashion, living just ten minutes from the notorious Tokyo street-style mecca, Harajuku. Well, the “Harajuku gals” got nothing on these beautiful people of the Surma and Mursi tribes in the L’Omo Valley on the borders of  Ethiopia, Kenya, and Sudan. What an incredible tribal fashion show! And so beautifully captured by photographer Hans Silvester.

Inspired by the wild trees, exotic flowers and lush vegetation of the area bordering Ethiopia, Kenya and Sudan, these tribal people have created looks that put the most outlandish creations of Western catwalk couturiers to shame. (From Dailymail)

Here’s a classic King Tubby dub with it.
