Traditional Habesha Dress – Zuria (ዙርያ)

Zuria (ዙርያ) is a traditional Habesha dress crafted from soft, flowing white fabric with a graceful full-length silhouette. This design features a square neckline, elegant short puff sleeves, and a fitted bodice that flows into a wide, floor-length skirt. The dress is beautifully adorned with intricate blue and gold Tibeb (ጥልፊ) embroidery arranged in geometric patterns along the neckline, center panel, skirt, and hem. The rich embroidered details create a striking contrast against the crisp white fabric, highlighting the craftsmanship and elegance of the design. The flowing skirt adds movement and volume, while the balanced embroidery gives the dress a refined, timeless, and sophisticated appearance. ዙርያ (ዙርያ) ካብ ለስላሳን ዝፈስስን ነጭ ጨርቂ ዝተሰርሐ ረዥም ባህላዊ ክዳን እዩ። እዚ ክዳን ትርብዒት ቅርጺ ዘለዎ ክሳድ፣ ሓጺር ተፍሓሓ እጅጌታት፣ ኣብ ላዕለዋይ ክፍሊ ተስማሚ ቅርጺ እናሃለዎ ናብ ሰፊሕ ረዥም መጐናጸፊ ዝወርድ እዩ። ኣብ ክሳድ፣ ማእከላይ ክፍሊ፣ ታሕቲ ክዳንን ወሰናቱን ብሰማያዊን ወርቃዊን ጥልፊ ብዝርዝር ጂኦሜትሪካዊ ኣርእስታት ተሸሊሙ እዩ። እቲ ኣብ ነጭ ጨርቂ ዝርከብ ሰማያዊን ወርቃዊን ጥልፊ ነቲ ክዳን ፍሉይ፣ ውቁብን ዘይሓልፍን ትርኢት ይህቦ።
