Between the black bands are groups of three grey horizontal lines or two grey with one black centre line. The wrap is embroidered on both sides with a column of repeating horizontal green and beige lines that are stitched vertically. The columns are flanked by vertical lines in beige and dark blue-grey. Three short vertical lines in green and beige with tufts at ends are embroidered through the wide black bands on the centre seam, with a set on either side of centre, and either side of the seam. The short edge has fringe.
Woman's head cloth composed of three distinct fabrics with each side ending with very long tassels. The middle section of black fabric is folded and partially stitched on the sides, creating a section that unfolds and expands. There is a section of dark teal fabric on one side, and a brightly coloured patterned fabric on the opposite side that has a line of silver sequins stitched on with bright pink thread. Extending from the fabric are long red and yellow tassels that are decorated with Job's tears seed pods.
Rectangular black and dark pink cloth. The left and right edges have a dark pink vertical patterned band. The outside vertical thirds, inside the stripes, are black panels, the centre third is patterned and dark pink with a seam down the centre where the two halves were stitched together with brightly coloured thread, alternating colours along the seam. The patterned bands along the edges are edged with a thin orange stripe, and patterned with bands of zigzag and bird motifs in black. The central pink bands, separated by the multicoloured seam, are also patterned with bird motifs in black.
Woman's wrap-around dress (kira). The dress is composed of three woven panels stitched together on the long edge to create a rectangular fabric. Each panel is finished in chain stitch in either red and dark blue or light grey-green and light brown. The centre of the textile has a beige background with evenly spaced bands of stripes. On each side there is a section of alternating solid orange and navy blue bands on an off-white ground weave. Both sides have sections of navy blue, grey, and bright orange bands in various sizes on a dark orange ground weave. One side is heavily embroidered with alternating lines of dark blue or dark blue-green and red designs including meander, stepped pyramids, diamonds, and other motifs. Fringe on the short ends.
Dark brown and off-white sash with long brown and off-white fringe with colourful tips. The fabric has a plaid pattern with squares of dark brown, off-white, and squares with a fine dark brown and off-white pattern. The rows alternate between rows of off-white and patterned squares, and rows of dark brown and patterned squares. The patterned squares are made up of a 6 by 6 grid of small squares with diagonal stripes, where the direction of the diagonal stripes alternates with each square which appears as a fine X or diamond pattern. The top horizontal row ends halfway up the squares. Most vertical rows have either one or two vertical lines up the centre of the squares, in off-white in the dark brown rows and dark brown in the off-white rows. The fringe is made up of dark brown and off-white strings, alternating with four strings in each row. The top row is half the height, so only has two strings. The strings are either dark brown or off-white, depending on the row colour. The fringe strings have short pieces of brightly coloured yarn tied around the knotted ends with a contrasting colour of yarn and white thread. The sets of dark brown and off-white strings are mostly finished with the same bright colour, a few are mixed.
Black, dark red and deep blue patterned head scarf, made of a thin, square synthetic fabric hemmed around the edges. The pattern is divided into four square sections on a black background. Each section has a central dark red circular design with spokes, surrounded by twelve smaller red circular designs.

The square sections are framed by two dark red squares with a repeating pattern of alternating pointed ovals between the squares in deep blue and dark red with a circle in the centre.
