Turbans and the African head wrap finally acceptable?

The head wrap is no unfamiliar wear in Africa and the African Diasporas. It is a symbol of our culture, especially in West and Central Africa. As Africa fashion is now going worldwide, so is the African head wrap. Even American celebrities are wearing the head wrap in different and new ways.

Do you think that this has made African traditional wear more acceptable in the professional world in the Westies?
