This book attempts a diagonal reading of sartorial attitudes among Central African populations, in order to correlate them with acculturated or inculturated postures, and thus deduce the need for a certain degree of endoculturation. Starting from a specific context of observation marked by the observation of dress codes increasingly oriented towards those of foreign countries, in particular Western and/or Middle Eastern, our research poses the key question of whether the models of dress permanently on display in Central Africa, and specifically in the Grandes Ecoles and other institutional environments, effectively magnify original African cultures.Taking Cameroon specifically as our field of study, the methodology applied to carry out this research consisted, on a "collaborative" basis, of drawing on several samples of students from diplomacy, administration and also teacher training colleges, as well as civil servants and other public agents from various other administrations.
