Nigerian costumes

Nigerian fashion designers, as well as large fabric and clothing manufacturers, are always using traditional clothing styles to create new clothing and fabric collections. They were able to change the color and cut combinations according to the new trends in global fashion. In addition, renowned European and American designers, known around the world, are continually using traditional African prints and designs in their collections. The simple fact is that only people who remember their past and culture deserve respect.
The African style uses different types of ornaments and ornaments. Either it is a geometric classic pattern, big or small, or a flower pattern in which the flowers are clearly drawn and other very complex ornaments can be used. It all depends on the degree of imagination and creativity of the designer. But if a pattern is small, the colors of the fabric are simple and conservative. The fabric with a large pattern usually comes in bright colors. As for the cut, the casual styles of the dress usually have a straight cut or chiseled and can go to the knee, with a round or rectangular neckline. And the evening dress is usually long on the floor and narrow or inflamed on the floor. Keep in mind that if your fabric has a large ornament, it is best to sew it straight and tight. If it is small, you can choose almost any cut variant.

Traditional blouses

When it comes to traditional blouse styles, we can not do without the peplum style. It seems like it will never go out of fashion. All women look good in this type of blouse. Festive traditional-style blouses have embroidered details or even lace. In addition, the special versions of the party are decorated with gemstones and artificial pearls. This type of blouse usually has a short or three quarter sleeves, a round neck or open shoulders. The traditional blouses are decorated in bright colors.
