Divide the folk from the sixties into three groups.  One group was led by Pat Nixon, wife of the late president.  One group was led by Sammy Davis Junior. The third group was headed up by Melanie.  The Pat Nixon group wore such regular "Leave it to Beaver" style clothes that they actually stood out in a crowd.  The Sammy Davis group wore suits and fashionable dresses, Malcom X belonged to this group.  the third group wore traditional African garb mixed with jeans and casual clothing.

hmm, twinsets, capris, halter tops, full skirts, anything kind of fifties.  Hair in a ponytail, french twist.  horn-rim glasses, cat eye glasses, saddle shoes, mary janes, black leather jackets, (biker style), pencil skirts, levis rolled to capri length, that's all I can think of right now.

I have read that it is donated to clothing drives and gets shipped overseas.  The anecdote is that there are a lot of African kids who are wearing "Buffalo Bills Superbowl Champs" t-shirts.

Something conservative, but I don't think you necessarily need to wear black. A dress or skirt or for a man nice slacks, shirt and tie.

In 1861, the official uniform for the United States was the blue wool uniform. However when war broke out both sides used it. The North because it was the official uniform and the South because it did not have an offical uniform as of yet. After the Battle of Bull Run most Southern units were issued gray uniforms, but due to the quality of the dyes these uniforms were sometimes butternut and off-blue in coloration. In the Union the standard uniform remained the blue uniform, while some units opted for the zouave uniform, which originated in North Africa. However at some engagements the South still wore blue to confuse the North.

I'm not sure about the civilian clothing, but the soldiers had specific uniforms. The Untion soldiers were fighting for the side that was supported by the United States government and pretty much everyone had the same uniform. Their colors were a dark royal blue and black. The uniforms generally were pretty much the same, but the colors were the only difference. The Confederate colors were grey and gold/yellow.

To wear or not to wear!\n\nThy salt wear what thee likes and that salt be the order of the day. Nothing happens - its ur wish and its ur choice. Havt u seen those rare african tribes who dont wear a thing and still there body is fit and fine ( in fact much better than most of us who spent so much on brands)

You should try to find African art books in your library. Most address the topic. If you find "Art and Craft in Africa" by Laure Meyer you will find a general overview of textiles and clothing. From the Ashanti try "African Majesty" by Peter Adler and Nicholas Barnard. Also "Weaving in Africa" by Karl-Ferdinand Schaedler.
