Africa is a huge continent, where at least a thousand languages are spoken, and there are many more than a thousand tribes, each with their own special culture. So, when someone says, "African clothing", it could cover a range of garments from loincloths to complex balloon dresses.
What people wear is usually dependent on their faith, culture, and the weather in their areas, or some combination of those. Generally though, Africans tend to favor durable, natural fibers, and clothing that is both useful and beautifully made.
There has been alot of crossover in style influences between Africa and Asia. You are just as likely to see people wearing caftans in both regions. Silk is also popular in Africa for those who can afford it. Egyptian cotton is recognized as among the best, and is sought after in Asia and around the world.
