Post Imperial IKOYI BOUBOU

Named after Lagos’ breathtaking island—known for upscale eatieries and a thriving art scene—our Ikoyi boubou is the closest interpretation of traditional West African tailoring which can be worn for formal events or during downtime

The Baye patchwork is a vertical style patchwork named after the Baye Fall, a religious sect located in Senegal. We cut long vertical strips of adire fabric and place them on the main cloth to create depth and texture. At Post-Imperial, we design all our styles to last in the spirit of slow fashion, taking the time to craft each piece with care and consideration alongside our local artisans in Nigeria. So we encourage you to wear them as often as possible.
