Gomesi uganda dress

Gomesi

Even the 1972 expulsion order could not wipe out 'Gomesi' designed by Caetano Milagres Gomes, which would go on to become Uganda's de facto national dress.

Although the Baganda of the central region still claim the gomesi as their own, from north to South, east to West Nile, women have made permanent room for it in their wardrobes.
