OLEKU Is Back!

I may be coming really late on this one, but it's better late than never. This must not go unmentioned. Fashion in the Owambe segment has returned to the 'good old days'. It is the OLEKU style in vogue now and not just in our parents' pictures anymore.

This time aso oke is not used for the 'iro' (wrapper) like we saw in those Polaroid and black & white pictures, but it's been sighted mainly in Ankara and Lace fabrics especially organza lace. The arm length is still three quarter, make sure your fashion designer doesn't forget that detail. The young ladies have been rocking this style which has started appearing again about a year ago, putting their 'iro' higher than their knees to their discretion. While the older and family women have stopped theirs right on the knee, or a little below but far from the ankle.

Whatever your length, whatever your fabric, the OLEKU style is still hip and has made appearing  in Iro 'n' Buba fad and fun. And everyone now has a chance to reminisce this legendary 'owambe' fashion statement.

Double organza

One of the fabrics that have been trending lately on the Nigerian party fashion scene is the 'Double Organza Lace'.

With double organza lace I've noticed that colours do come out really beautiful, they are of light weight for laces, they don't droop on your frame and blend pretty well with head gears of any kind whether paper gele, syn-gele, aso oke of any kind.


You should try them out for that next 'owambe'  and even suggest them for aso ebi if you have an event coming up soon, they do a great job enhancing collectiveness.


Sorry! I don't have the pictures to show how they turn out. Working on it, please bear with me.

TEMMY OFI ALASO OKE

Be classic.

Aso oke is an ancient traditional attire that has been found mostly with westerners in Nigeria, used for weddings, naming ceremonies, coronation ceremonies and the likes and it is used to grace occasions generally. It is majorly woven by the Yoruba ethnic group and has been the family trade of most families involved in it for centuries. Aso-oke has evolved to what we have in this present age and has been in and out of vogue in the 21^st-century but has not been successfully pushed out of style and it is still trending presently in today’s fashion.

The prices of today’s aso oke fashion vary and depend on a number of factors

·         The textile materials used or combined.

·         The volume of the pattern.

·         The type of design.

·         Sometimes the colour.

·         Fashion trends (e.g. aso oke with patterns not woven with it like the ones with paintings or needle work)

The last factor is susceptible to change, but the other above it are features of premium aso oke.
