Wedding & Ceremony
Ethiopian Wedding Dress
The Ethiopian wedding dress — the habesha kemis — is one of the most beautiful bridal garments in the world. A white hand-loomed kemis with a full gold tilet panel down the center front, heavy tibeb borders at the hem, cuffs and collar, and hand-spun cotton that drapes with weight and grace. Every stitch carries generations of tradition.
Ordering from abroad is straightforward — send your measurements via WhatsApp to any seller, and they will custom-tailor the kemis to your exact fit. Bridal pieces typically require 6–8 weeks lead time. Custom embroidery and tibeb border options are available on request.
