Do you know that the loose-fitting gown called ‘Bubu or Boubou’ has been around for ages among Nigerian women? Well, younger women used to pass on it, for reasons nobody really knew. But guess what? Contemporary designers have given it a fresh spin lately, and now it’s all the trend, especially with celebrities rocking it.
These days, the boubou isn’t just a dress—it’s a statement. It’s got that ‘Rich Aunty Vibes’ vibe going on effortlessly. And the best part? It’s so versatile! You can wear it to traditional gatherings, religious events, parties, or even weddings.
And oh, the fabrics! You have got damask, satin, lace, Ankara, chiffon, silk, batik, cotton—name it, the boubou comes in it. Plus, it is not just one style. You can go wide-necked, v-necked, round-necked, turtlenecked, or rock the trendy off-the-shoulder look.
