Vintage Nigeria: "Oleku" Iro and Buba Style; Greatest Fashion Comeback

olekuu2

Oleku is probably one of the outfits that made the greatest fashion comebacks in recent times.
Now more than ever, we have seen more dynamic ways to style the Iro and Buba, which is the direct inspiration for the Oleku.

These days, women now opt for the Oleku wrapper and blouse outfits usually made in stylish chiffon fabrics that come in different prints in place of the normal lace or Ankara iro and buba
