Swag it out in an agbada

Growing up, I always regarded the agbada as an elderly outfit. Fast forward to 2015 and it is a statement piece for men who know their stuff even Runtown the musician has kind of coined the look such that he is now synonymous with the look. Peep what the modern man looks like with the agbada below.
 Stylish huh? Now it is so stylish that even igbo boys rock the look on a regular basis. Here are some of the reasons why I particularly like this look:
- it is a fresh look and fits all body types accordingly.
- it is a break from the normal look we have come to expect from young men.
- it is very comfortable to wear.

To pull this look off you would need at least 6 yards of material. You could use just about any sort of material but it is probably best you consult with your tailor first.

You will also need a tight tailor, one who has been tried and tested. You do not want a tailor who will ruin your cloth.
You will need a tight traditional cap that matches the color scheme of your look.
You will need a statement wristwatch and bad ass pair of shoes that spells "BIG BOY" lol

Here are some pictures of Noble Igwe showing you how to turn up your swag meter in an agbada. This Noble is on some other level of cool. Have you checked his instagram recently? Nwanne  m!

UPDATE: did anyone else notice how all the male artistes at the headies seemed to be wearing an agbada. Fear me for I am a prophetess. I saw the future. Lol. I especially loved Vector's variant of the agbada. Now what else are you waiting for? Join the yoruba demons today. Lmao.

  2. It would look great on you regardless. I would advice that you do not make the agbada too full. You should also work with colours that complement your complexion. X.
