written by Goody

Bubu/Boubou is the name of a free-flowing gown worn by women, popular in West Africa, with countries like Nigeria and Ghana giving it great recognition. The Senegalese Boubou is also a variation of this style that has been widely accepted in different parts of the world. Bubu styles feature a loose-fitting gown that hides most of the curves and can have a wide neck, V-neck, round neck, turtleneck, or the popular off-shoulder design. Take your time and make your choice because we have a great collection of classy styles for you.

The Bubu style is versatile in the sense that it can be styled with a variety of popular fabrics, including both African fabrics and others. Some of the popular fabrics used in making this outfit style include Ankara, lace, chiffon, silk, cotton, crepe, batik, and more. One of the admirable features of the fabrics used in making this attire is that they are often brightly colored.
