Leppi is a cultural/traditional  West African dress that originated from the Fulani people of Guinea. It is made of 100 % fabric cotton that is hand woven and made into many different designs and usually comes in dark blue and sometimes white and black colors. It is worn during special occasions like Eids, marriage or naming ceremonies and it has received great recommendations from different countries and tribes as it is worn all over. It now holds an important part of the Fulani tribe of Guinea. It is important to me because the fabric is very comfortable and good, the designs are elegant. Lastly, I develop a sense of belonging, personal and cognitive growth and the ability to empathize and relate to other cultures.
