As an African I love all cultural dresses .My Ethiopian beauty , tradition and culture is number one for me. Love you guys for reacting our beloved land Africa.
Nigeria has many ethnic groups and each group have their own peculiar costume designers. The Igbos, the Yorubas, the Hausas, The Edos, the Efik , the Tiv, the Idomas, the Fulani all have unique costumes won during festive periods and celebration. I think you should do more research with the lead I have given. Thanks
There are varieties of 🇬🇭Kente patterns but for weddings we dress in Sika ( money/gold) Kente, meaning a touch of gold in the pattern irrespective of the choice of color theme. It represents royalty, prosperity, happiness.
Igbo people of Nigeria has multiple attires,we have Akwa ocha(a white handwoven cloth)mostly used by Anioma/onitcha people of Igboland.We also have akwete which is handwoven as well.We then have Isiagu,ukara cloth and aro-chukwu attire ❤
I love the nigerian beads and the crown. They are beautiful and I think maybe they symbolise something about the manhood and womanhood? Come on my Nigerian Fam, help me out here.
The Nigerian attire is particular to the Edo people of nigeria, it was used by royals of the then benin kingdom....the attire is worn during traditional weddings, traditional meetings, etc..
Its for brides during traditional marriage ceremony (Benin people of Edo state Nigeria) and the Oba's (Benin monarchs) wives wear them when they always including the Oba as part of their daily apparel So it's originally a Benin practice
I think because most the time those videos are “English made” French speaking countries are barely included. For example Ivory Coast traditional outfits are kinda similar to Ghana’s
You can never get a favorite traditional wear , I love everything . I want to try on everything even what was not show cased 😆 We wear different things for a reason . Each signifies or stands for something !
The Ghanaian kente is not only a gold color, when you visit the volta region of Ghana the colors are tan, beige, purple, white, and many more, which are not showcased a lot but if you want to stand out and be different that is what you go for. In Africa, every country has its own unique dress, there are no two countries that look the same in terms of style and swag.
The headdress worn by the bride is actually worn by the Edo brides and the Oba's ( Benin monarchs) wives wear them too, So it's originally the Edo people that owns the culture of wearing coral bead head gears and it has become the rave throughout the country (Nigeria)
The madiba shirt was designed by a west African tailor... he’s a burkinabe base in Ivory Coast! ... so that style of dress has it roots from west Africa.
Incorrect, the Madiba Batik shirt is Indonesian and was designed by Desré Buirski in SA. Later, Sonwabile Ndamase was tasked with making Tata's shirts. Who is the West African designer?
I'm northern Ndebele and I love our colours and culture but being very honest there was only one that gave me chills and that was Ghana. It was that woman's dance and the gold and bright colours.
@@mrtnm121 huge differences...... Nigeria is not like every other african countries....... nigeria has both African and middle East culture.......that's why one tribe can't define nigeria the whole world knows this...... that's why we use ethnic and regions to differentiate in Nigeria because we don't vibe thesame....... north Africa culture is also in Nigeria....... nigeria is not only an African country......we are very very diverse
@@promisebethel2226 Every African country is diverse in it's own way. In kenya we have asian/indian, somali and Arabic culture and we have 43 tribes/ethnic groups all with different cultures and different traditional attires. In this video, they only showed two. Well, I can't talk for every african country but Nigeria is not as different as you want it to be.
For Nigeria different ethnic groups with their different dressing, the one for d female u saw is for d Edo people, it's different from d Yorubas n igbos.....
The head dress she had on is predominantly an Edo wear, other culture have similar head dress but its not as decorated. There is also the igele which is the most popular and versatile form of head dress, some dont even have head dresses just beads and cowries decorating their hair. Its varies
It is called the gele( Nigerian headwrap) and more. In Liberia, our pattern is the damasin ( damask) and country cotton clothe. Fante ( ankara)Ankara. Tiedyed prints. And the scarf of ( Kru) is the bonswae ( like the Nefertiti crown) but it is Headwear ( fabric) as crown. We use lots of Gold too..The variety is endless...ooo
3:19 Your husband's favorite seems to be the south african leopard skin wear for zulu traditional for men. I'm guessing from the Reaction's that each of you are doing
I'm Somali and even though I like that he included us, I just wish he picked better videos to really show our traditional clothes (dirac and macawiis). But this is a good reaction overall 👍☺️
Very important question for you two - When are you coming to any country in Africa? Stop procrastinating and book a trip now. You can book it for the future and pay monthly but at least you know when and prepare. I am Nigerian but suggest you go to Ghana first, then Nigeria and if possible Senegal, Gambia and South Africa, then Kenya and Uganda.....any really is good....just do it, just go.
NIGERIA HAS MANY TRADITIONAL ATTIRE, THE ONE ON THE VIDEO IT FOR THE BENIN PEOPLE WHICH IS BEAUTIFUL, THE YORUBA , IGBO, ANOTHER STATE ARE NOT INCLUDED ON THE VIDEO
Colors are usually vibrant in dark skin and looks extremely beautiful. That is why at the beginning of fashion, designers use to look for dark people to try clothes on and show it to people (which eventually became modeling)
.. that could also explain the psych and connection of African people with colorful clothes/fabrics which continued to the diaspora, if you go anywhere globally and see anyone in public wearing bright/bold colors like red on red and so on.. chances are that person is of African descent
2:35 That's good you recognize which culture has which cultural dress. I suspect that your wife's favorite is nigerian probably from edo culture. 5:35 Okay maybe I was wrong she seems to like the south african better. Ndebele.
There are different head dresses . The Edo , the ijaw, the Igbo, have different head dresses. But a lot of people borrow from other cultures. Igbos have their head dresses, but a lot of Igbos wear Edo and ijaw head dresses, because they love it. Igbos have got their fabrics called Akwete and akwaocha. Other ethnic groups have their fabrics too
No we don’t wear edo and ijaw head Dresses don’t lie we have been wearing beads in our heads for centuries anyone that wears the Edo attire is either for a party or is married to an edo person so don’t spread rumours now
Nah we Igbo do not wear edo/ijaw attire as they don’t have if u talk about red velvet that isn’t attire.Igbo have multiple attires like Akwa ocha,Isiagu,akwete,ukara aro-chukwu attire and more so u are wrong
As a Nigerian my favourite are the South African attire, it feel regal like. Those beads on the head are amazing. As an Igbo tribe it is hard to find coral beads which was stopped by whye ppl due to coral reef......many hire the beads now or use fake beads....

First, we do not wear "costumes". Our attire is worn for different reasons and occasions. Give it up for my Edo people, the Okuku crown is the most beautiful EVER!!!

For nigeria, the one shown in the video is Edo which is called Okuku. I would say theirs is the most elaborate which sets theirs apart.
