Hello everyone,
Today i will be taking a trip to the northern part of Nigeria and i will be showing you beautiful and super gorgeous brides of the Hausa ethnic group adorned in stunning wedding outfits and costumes that portrays the beautiful northern Nigerian culture.
The HAUSA BRIDE stands out amongst others on her big day , from the choice of color them to choice of fabrics as well as choice of jewelry (mostly gold jewelry) and also the beautiful henna designs on the body.
The Hausas are a bit conservative in nature especially in fashion. most times they appear simple yet super classy. the average Hausa lady believes that less is more when it comes to fashion but they add the E to EXTRA when it comes to their wedding day. check some other blog posts i made about them HERE and HERE
For this post, i will be showing you some pictures of Hausa/Fulani brides that caught my fancy while trying to put this post together. lets see the pictures *drum rolls*
What do you think? amazing display of Nigerian culture right? that’s what was on my mind too.

Rave of the moment: Lamé Fabric
Hello everyone and can I still say Happy New Year?🙈 Since it’s my first post here in the year 2020.
How has the new year been so far? Hope you are smashing your new year goals already?
Well, it’s 2020 and a lot is happening in the fashion/fabric scene especially in Nigeria and Africa generally. So if you are a lover of African fashion, get ready for a dramatic turn as we are bringing new Fabrics and fashion houses are churning out amazing pieces which I will be sharing from time to time here.
So today, I’m sharing one of the new entrants that made way into our fashion scene late last year and it’s taking over at the moment because of the versatility of the fabric. It’s the Lamé Fabric 💥
This is a shiny fabric made with metallic threads. It’s lustrous, smooth, with a fluid drape, semi-sheer/opaque.
Lamé comes in different varieties, depending on the composition of the other threads in the fabric. Common examples are tissue lamé, hologram lamé and pearl lamé.
So if the memo says sparkle and shine, Hollywood glamour or you just want to shine bright like diamonds to your next event, the Lamé fabric is your best bet.
And it’s so versatile that you can make amazing dress styles in different lengths with it like wrap dresses, Kaftans, even our ever green iro and buba, boubous, jumpsuits and many more that I will be showing you samples of but first let’s take a look at the fabric:
Now let’s see some gorgeous style inspirations on these beautiful ladies creatively designed from this stunning fabric:
Metallic threads should never be exposed to high heat in a clothes dryer or while ironing. Use a clothes steamer to remove wrinkles and be sure to keep the steamer nozzle at least 12 inches away from the fabric surface. If you must use an iron to remove wrinkles, use a low heat setting and always press from the wrong side while using a pressing cloth between the iron’s surface and the fabric.
Good news is some fashion brands like @funkeadepoju has some of these styles as ready to wear which you can just order for yourselves.
But if you need the fabric to make one of these or a totally different design depending on the look you want. Fabric is available in different colors as seen in the pictures and videos above.
To order online, please call or WhatsApp 2347033040834.

NEW FABRIC ALERT: BROCADE JACQUARD
Hello my stylish asoebi lovers,
Today I will be introducing a new fabric which is actually the rave of the moment in the Nigerian Fashion Scene.
Not yet common but most women of style have one or two patterns of this gorgeous fabric in their closet.
The brocade/jacquard fabric is one of those timeless fabric that will always stand out at any time.
A brocade is merely an example of a jacquard, a heavy fabric with acolorful allover raised pattern or floral design with an embossed or embroidered effect; it may or may not incorporate gold or silver threads.
One thing that made me fall in love with the brocade fabric when I got the first delivery is the floating designs on the surface plus the rich opulent looks👌
This fabric oozes elegance! It’s classy and super stunning yet skin friendly.
It’s perfect for dresses, tops and skirts or top and wrapper but you need a very creative and innovative designer to get the best out of this fabric. This is a timeless fabric, so please invest in getting a great design from a good tailor.
Let’s see some gorgeous designs and colors that we currently have in stock for you to purchase:
Which of these is your favourite design? Let me know in the comments section.
📍Prices are between 30,000 Naira and 40,000 Naira for 5yards

NORTHERN NIGERIAN BRIDES
Sometimes a go I made a post HERE about the Hausa or Northern Nigerian Amariya I shared my thoughts about the beautiful Hausa/Fulani rich culture displayed at their weddings which is quite unique from other traditional weddings in Nigeria.
Over the years, the Amariya or Northern Nigerian brides have evolved in their fashion/style for their big day and I felt I should make another post on this.
In as much as we all know that Hausa especially the Fulani ladies are conservative but we can’t ignore how stunning they look naturally. Have you met some Shuwa Arab ladies?? OMG! They are super gorgeous.
Their smooth and shiny skin either dark or light, their long and soft sometimes curly hair , their love for perfumes and incense ( they love to smell nice)😉 are some of the attributes of the Northern Nigerian ladies.
They spend a lot of money on their hair/skin especially on natural skin care products from Arab countries and some parts of Nigeria ( Maiduguri in particular) where they have local spas that you can treat your skin with natural herbs at low costs.
When getting married, the northern Nigerian wedding is more of a festival especially for the bride.
The display of culture from the outfits to the makeup, henna, exquisite gold jewelry, unique veils is amazingly beautiful.
Since this is our focus on today’s post, grab your popcorn and check out these beautiful pictures of stunning Northern Nigerian brides and let me know what you think in the comments section:

NEW FABRIC ALERT: MILK FIBRE LACE
Hello everyone,
It’s been a long time I posted on here but we have been active on our social media pages.( Please follow us @theasoebijunkie on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter)
This is actually my first post in 2019 ( covers face) and the year is half gone already. Let me just say I just got out of #writersblock because I keep trying to bring content here but some issues either from business or family will take up my time and I kept postponing.
But here we are today , a new post finally and I hope to continue to be consistent from now on.
So there’s a new kid in the block of fashion fabrics and I thought to show you guys this beautiful , skin friendly, comfortable and easy breezy fabric called MILK FIBRE LACE.
MILK FIBRE LACE is so similar to guipure but it’s lighter than guipure on the body and so soft on the skin.
I personally love this fabric because it’s versatile and beautiful. It feels light but of a good density and quality.
It’s a timeless classic (especially the white colour ) which is perfect for boubou or A-LINE dresses. You can style MILK FIBRE LACE into our evergreen top and wrapper aka iro and buba or make a shift dress.
Here are some pictures of this gorgeous fabric in beautiful colors that we have available for sale:
Price: 25,000 Naira for 5yards
So if you have any event soon and you are still trying to figure out the kind of fabric to use for your outfit, the milk fibre lace is one fabric that is elegant, timeless and can be tagged “affordable luxury”.
It’s perfect for celebrants and party guests asoebi or siblings asoebi for birthday parties, burial parties, introduction, thanksgiving Sunday infact it’s perfect for all occasions.
In my next post , I will be posting style options especially boubou styles made from this fabric that you can rock to your next owambe to inspire you as you make the decision to purchase from us at THEASOEBIJUNKIE as we can wait to take your orders.

THE TEXTILE FAIR LAGOS 2018
Hello my lovelies,
The Textile Fair Lagos is back!!!! *Inserts a dance emoji* .
As you all know, THEASOEBIJUNKIE is all about African Fabrics and fashion. And in 2014, we started a fair tagged The Textile Fair Lagos where we gather vendors of high quality Fabrics, creatively designed ready to wear pieces for adults and kids plus unique fashion accessories but stopped along the line.
And because our past vendors keep disturbing that we should bring the fair back, we had to listen and the next edition will be on the 1st of December 2018 at Lagos Airport Hotel Ikeja Lagos.
So if you love great bargains and you have been waiting for our next sales, The Textile Fair Lagos is the place to be this weekend because not only will THEASOEBIJUNKIE brand be there with Exquisite Fabrics as usual but there will be other vendors selling all things Fashion at discounted prices.
It’s going to be an amazing family Christmas shopping event as there will be something for everyone.
Did I mention that there will be free master classes on gele tying, party makeup, fashion styling and I will be teaching on the business of fabrics . So if you want to start a fabric business in 2019 and you need some tips/advice or you have questions on the business of fabrics? You should make it a date.
Another good news is that we have goody bags for the first 50 shoppers and when you purchase goods worth 10k and above from vendors, you get a raffle ticket to win beautiful Fabrics.
So you see we have a lot lined up at The Textile Fair Lagos 2018 with good music and food from our food vendors.
And above all admission to this event is FREE!!
Please make it a date with your family and tell a friend to tell another friend.
