We have something exceptional and exciting for you today on Fashion Friday! It's all about “GELE TYING ”!
Gele tying is more of a tradition than a fashion trend in Africa. This mode of fashion is so important in this part of the world,even modernisation hasn’t been able to push this out the window. It's the most important part of our custom and tradition and it's typical to Africans.
Gele comes in different forms, it can be in aso-oke,damask,nylon or fabrics.
Choosing the size and shape of your gele depends on the kind of event. Some may call for the big and bold and some may call for the small and cute.
You can wear your gele on any kind of fabric you have on. Ankara,lace,guinea,chiffon,satin, etc.
Not to bore you with so much words, as a Yoruba adage says "Gèlè ò dùn bí kí a mọ̀ wé, ká mọ̀ wé kò le dàbi kó yẹni" (Translation- "Gele is not as sweet as knowing how to tie it, and knowing how to tie is not comparable to the honor it gives").
Since looking stunning and gorgeous is priority to us,we bring you amazing gele styles which could be some source of inspiration for you for your next event!
