Embroideries are usually sewn designs on a garment and in this context, the Agbada garment it is. Embroideries have a way of beautifying outfits, not just that but also giving them a sense of stylish fitting. Take a look at the Agbada clothing in general, you are sure to see a design in the front. Without this design, the Agbada is just but a plain flowing garment.
Agbada embroideries could actually be seen from the context of it passing a fashion statement. Take for instance, you get the same car with a friend but you get to pimp your wheels as well as re- spray, even though you got yours cheaper, your very own car would be the center of attraction and that is the same with having to embroider your Agbada garment with a design.
There is no Agbada without am embroidery design and if you so happen to come across one, then that would be more of a “booboo” or flowing garment with no connection to been called an Agbada. Basically, the embroider design is what gets to make an Agbada what it is in the real sense of it.
Types of Embroidery Designs in Nigeria
In Nigeria today, embroideries differ from an individual taste to another. This been, not everyone loves the front of their Agbada crowded with threads while others do. The Agbada embroidery design can be sub categorized into two categories namely;
- Simple Agbada Embroidery
- Complex Agbada Embroidery
The simple Agbada embroidery designs usually come with a fewer presence of threads sewn around the neck and front of the Agbada garment. For those who do not care about what they wear or have not the time for being stylish, this usually happens to be their choice by default as they tend to tell their tailor to do whatever- trust me, not many tailors would want to stress themselves with something complicated (“No be Agbada him want, make we make the Agbada for am na” kind of attitude).
