To All The Ladies In Abroad-how Many Of You Still Wear Ur Traditional Outfit?

joy6 · 05-14-2003, 09:32 AM

i have noticed that naija girls in abroad no longer like to
wear their native wear.why? is it
because it is consider unsexy or out of fashion???or it is just of no interest to us???

i think our tradition outfits represent a lots of who we are and where we come from. it is a strong symbol of our culture.
so whenever we choose to wear native ,we are expressing that great sense of culture.it simply shows that we are proud of our
orgin and not embassraed to show it.

I don't think it makes much of a difference whether you were born in Naija or not. Natives are natives. And it's good that we are still rocking them

Hypechic meant natives are the IN THING.
