Description:

Long overdue for her cultural anthropomorphism, I bring you Mmiri doing her traditional Zulu Reed Dance!

With this one, I looked at various images of the Zulu women in their traditional garb, and surprisingly like the Masai people, they too also craft beautiful beaded jewelry of many colors. Most notably is their elaborate necklaces that have hundreds of beads of all colors arranged in various patterns.

With a bit of research learning about the Zulu traditional dances and culture, the Reed Dance in particular is basically preformed by hundreds of young Zulu women in annual celebrations in South Africa, celebrating the pureness and virginity they've maintained each year.
Unlike the Masai women, they are usually topless when participating in this cultural event. So, I had to compensate a little with Mmiri's cloths in order to be as decent as possible without straying away from the cultural look itself.

For more info about this ceremony, I've put a link to it right here —-→https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umhlanga_(ceremony)

One thing I noticed that actually fit really well with Mmiri's personality, is that the Zulu women always seem to be very happy looking and energetic, as apposed to the more reserved Masai women in their red gowns.

It just amazes me every time how well my characters actually fit with the cultures that their real-life counter parts live around in those regions.

Hope you all enjoy her energetic beauty!
