When it comes to giving clout and sparking  attention capable of making a wearer a show stopper, no outfit can be more appropriate than ‘Agbada’.
Every passing day, fashion designers come up with irresistible latest Agbada styles.  To inspire more attraction for the attire, celebrities and influencial men and women have continuously rolled out  the latest ways to wear this all inclusive outfit.
For ladies who would want to make  bold fashion statements to events, you can be sure to achieve that by  wearing one of the latest Agbada styles.
How times change! Agbada outfit, from time immemorial, had been one ensamble that encapsulates class and style in a native way. For those who aren’t nouvelle to the fashion culture in Nigeria,  Agbada  is a native attire considered exclusive for rich Yoruba men alone.
On the contrary, the debutants in fashion, see it as an all comers’ attire. Both descriptions may vary but are true.
The later school came in contact with Agbada outfit when it had evolved to become a unisex attire to the point that it has now left the borders of Yoruba culture.
Part of its evolution trend include a number of different designs and the embroidery modernised to look better too.
Today, men, women and even children of other tribes wear Agbada regardless of their social status. Agbada can be worn to worship centres, traditional marriages or any suitable event.
To suit every purpose, you can either make it casual or ceremonial.The casual Agbada isn’t as voluminous as the ceremonial. It is smaller and often made of plain, lightweight cotton fabric.
On the other hand, the ceremonial Agbada is mostly sewn with heavy and expensive fabrics. It is also larger and more elaborately ornamented than the casual one.
These days, many styles have been incorporated into the attire to give it a must-wear look all the time. Among such innovative style to the modern Agbada is the Agbada-cum-senator design.
This particular one gives you the opportunity to wear a senator while attaching the wide-sleeved robe of Agbada to the other sleeve.
Importantly, when choosing the material for your Agbada, ensure you choose a colour that matches your skin tone. And do not make the mistake of choosing an inferior fabric as this will ruin your Agbada outfit.
You can as well go for a thick material as this will make your Agbada appear firmer and better. Also, you can starch your Agbada to make it look firm to prevent you from looking tiny inside the robe.
