GÈLÈ VIBE❤️
Gèlè is a traditional West African headwrap basically rooted in Yoruba culture from Nigeria, and you can see it everywhere now.
Made from rich, structured fabrics (Aso-oke and ankara), it's carefully tied by hand into stunning sculptural shapes that frame the face and get attention.
Not just a headwrap, but also a symbol of elegance, identity. It's worn during celebration like weddings, naming ceremonies, and cultural events.
You might just see it as a random item but every fold does have a meaning.

The ‘Motion’ series captured by Girma Berta @gboxcreative
In this series, the self taught Ethiopian photographer aimed to capture the soul and energy of African capitals. Through a spun effect, Girma created dynamic portraits of people on bikes in the streets of Marrakech, Morocco; Jinja, Uganda; Bamako, Mali; and Yirga Chefe, Southern Ethiopia. The vibrant colors and spinning effect beautifully capture the energy of Africa. ‘’My photography style is focused on capturing the unique energy and personality of people living in urban areas,” the artist says. “I’m particularly drawn to the vibrant atmosphere of big cities, where people from all walks of life come together in a bustling mix of cultures, sounds, and sights.’’ 🇪🇹🌍🏍️
