I've seen my sis and many cousins wear traditional Djibouti clothing. Jewelry I'm not sure of since I never paid attention to it. But it should be similar to afar no? That's most what I see

I always see things like this though

This is Afar:

Afar - Somali - Arab

Somali women were pictured wearing very similar jewelry in old vintage photos. I don't know what happened to their production, like the Somali khamiis we forgot about all this in exchange for some reer baadiya clothing.

Traditional clothes is easy to procure. You just need to buy the fabrics and take it to a tailor. But training people to make the silverpieces to a high standard will be harder.

If its not done by 10 years time, I'll do it then inshallah.
