An '''Ethiopian suit''' is the traditional [[formal wear]] of the men of [[Ethiopia]]. It consists of a long sleeve, knee-length shirt, and matching pants. Most shirts are made with a Mandarin, band, or Nehru collar. The suit is made of [[chiffon (fabric)]], which is a sheer [[silk]] or [[rayon]] cloth. A shawl called a ''netela'' or a ''[[kuta (clothing)]]'' is wrapped around the suit, see [[Culture of Ethiopia]]. During the [[2008 Summer Olympics]] Opening Ceremony, Parade of Nations, the Ethiopian team marched in white suits.

The dashiki is similar to the style worn in [[West Africa]]. However, Ethiopian dashikis are usually white, off-white, or natural [[cotton]]. The front is decorated with Ethiopian themes and motifs. For formal events, the dashiki suit is worn and consists of a [[dashiki]] shirt and matching pants. (see External links for photos)
