Ankara clothing popular and is loved by Nigerian men and women as aso-ebi fabric, sewn into different styles and worn at weddings.
Ankara can be combined with lace, chiffon or other materials. Ankara is used to sew casual and traditional wears.
Although Ankara Fabric is associated with the African culture, it’s origins are not authentically and wholly African. Dutch wax
prints started out as cheap mass-produced imitations of Indonesian batik fabric.
It was originally intended for the Indonesian market but found a more enthusiastic market in West Africa, where it became symbols of
traditional and high quality fashion.
From West Africa, this fabric spread to other parts of Africa and all over the world.
Styles, and designs available for this beautiful fabric are endless and this
makes all people; men and women, young, and the aged become glued to it. Ankara has made a come back in a big way with modern patterns,
and vibrant colors.
