According to African Traditional Wear, umemulo marks a woman's transition from girlhood to adulthood. When a Zulu lady turns 21, she is honoured for presumably preserving her body for marriage and respecting her family with the decision. The ceremony, including the pinning of gifts, was meant to help her with her future.
