This is a kimono not agbada, Femi Branch shades Ebuka Uchendu
Nollywood actor, Femi Branch has called on media personality, Ebuka Uchendu and his tailor/fashion designer Ugo Monye over his outfit to Banky W’s wedding.
Branch in a long Instagram post, examined the features of an Agbada and thereafter concluded that Uchendu’s outfit is either be a kimono or something else.
He wrote,
“This is not an Agbada!
“Abeg o make una no vex o, as much as I am in love with this epic design that is obviously trending right now, as a Yoruba man, one of the few tribes to whom the Agbada traditionaly belongs, I want to ask…. Is this really an Agbada?
“A Buba is different from a Dansiki which is also different from a dandogo or an olentelafa (long sleeved tunic that reaches the ankles) but they are all tops. From what I know, an Agbada is never open in front. It can be any design, length or pattern but it’s never cut all the way open in front! This is more of a Kimono not an Agbada.
“Of a truth, the Agbada has metamorphosed grandly over the years but always kept it’s basic design which has come to become it’s sole identity. WHAT WE SEE HERE IS NOT AN AGBADA! So please @ugomonye.official what do we call this epic masterpiece of yours cos now we are all confused o!”
