arly visible among young people, who are increasingly adopting Western clothing, such as jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers. The reasons for this change are multiple. On the one hand, the influence of globalization and social media is contributing to the spread of Western fashion trends. On the other hand, the desire for modernity and comfort is driving Senegalese people to adopt more practical and adaptable clothing.

However, this evolution also raises questions about the preservation of Senegalese cultural identity. Traditional clothing is imbued with values and meanings that are essential to the country's cultural heritage. Moreover, traditional Senegalese clothing is often made from local and natural fabrics, such as cotton and plant fibers, which makes them more sustainable and environmentally friendly.

In contrast, fast fashion, which is often associated with European clothing, has a negative impact on the environment and society. The production of cheap and short-lived clothing contributes to water pollution, soil degradation, and worker exploitation. It is therefore important to find a balance between modernity and tradition, while prioritizing sustainable and environmentally friendly practices.

By valuing traditional clothing and adopting more responsible consumption practices, Senegalese people can preserve their cultural identity while contributing to a more sustainable future.
