Tagbanan Malinke. “Lydie is a lawyer, and has lived in London most of her life. I met her on the internet as she was looking for a photographer for her wedding in Abidjan. Her outfit is from the Tagbanan tribe, who are originally from north Ivory Coast. Lydie was proudto see herself in the traditional outfit – she said that she felt like she was reconnecting with the cultural part of herself”. (Photo by Joana Choumali/The Guardian)
