The latest trend in Nigerian fashion is the Aso-Oke. A typical traditional wedding in the western part of Nigeria is not complete without it.

 

Aso Oke is a hand-woven fabric made by the Yoruba people sewn together to make local clothing for festivals, coronations, weddings and other celebrations.

 

This is why fashionable ladies (and men) choose the best when they go for Aso-Oke. This fabric is  produced in Ede(Osun State), Okene (Kogi State) and Iseyin (Oyo State) in the Southern part of Nigeria.

 

Below is how to pair your Aso-Oke for that event.
