A young Oromo woman is posing for the camera clothed in her traditional Gujii Oromo attire. Her outfit consists of a dress and a cloak made from the same cotton material. She is wearing her traditional black hair wrap adorned with jewelry and a necklace made of black and white beads. The color pattern is what makes it distinctively Gujii.
