  • Insider Notes

    • Babayo’s creations simultaneously preserve and build upon Nigeria’s heritage and cultural narratives. Inspired by time-honored local attire, called babanringa, this dress is cut from pure cotton and intricately hand-embroidered using ancient techniques of the Fulani people. Notice the unique shoulder construction that references traditional agbada robes—a go-to outfit for many Nigerian men. Wear yours with barely-there sandals.
