In Zimbabwe there are very few locals skilled in design of traditional costumes apart from a few specialist outlets in the capital city. Taking advantage of the continental trend, a group of skilled women in Gweru have set up a thriving textiles project known as Temash Exclusive Centre, that specializes in the design and production of African attire as it is an instant hit business enterprise for many West African countries, where the clothes are made with colours representing various tribes and considered essential at traditional events.
