Hereros Fashion a la Deutschland

If there is one thing I love in the world, it is a great juxtaposition. Photographer Jim Naughten's Hereros series is a great juxtaposition. The series looks at the Hereros tribe of Namibia, a beautiful desert country, and their unique traditional fashions.

A mixture of 19th century traditional German clothing, German soldier uniforms, and traditions native to the area, the Hereros fashion definitely stands out. And there are some really great silhouettes.
