What do people in Gao, Africa wear?

This is a history project and the internet has been no help at all, whatsoever. Please help me!!!|||what country is Gao in? what part of the country?|||Gao is in Mali, so I am assuming they wear that same types of clothing in other parts of the country.





Most women and some men still dress in boubous and other traditional clothing. Tailors (typically men) transform the colorful patterned meters of cloth into striking loose-fitting clothing.





Here are some photos I found:
