Outer Robe (Awosoke):
The awosoke on Babajide is tailored from a smooth, structured cotton blend with enough body to maintain sharp edges across the shoulders and arms. The sleeves stop just above the elbows, while the hem drops to mid-calf, giving the garment ceremony-worthy volume without bulk. The angular side panels fall in clean, architectural lines that emphasize poise and precision, even in motion. This is a garment meant to frame the body with intention.

Undervest (Awotele):
Cut in matching black, the awotele is designed as a clean and understated canvas beneath the embroidery. Its rounded neckline and centered placket support the full verticality of the motif, while its long sleeves and close fit anchor the look in stillness. The design is refined to maintain the balance between breathability and structure—never loose, never tight.

Trousers (Sokoto):
The sokoto is tapered and impeccably tailored, falling just above the ankle. It features a concealed drawstring and side closure for seamless adjustability. The fabric matches the rest of the ensemble in tone and texture, ensuring a continuous silhouette from top to toe. Functional and elegant, the trousers are made for extended wear during important gatherings or ceremonies.

Babajide is constructed from a premium midweight cotton blend, chosen for its rich color saturation, matte finish, and sculptural performance. The fabric holds its form beautifully, ensuring the Agbada maintains its silhouette over hours of movement and rest. The black is deep and even, achieved through precision dyeing that keeps the tone rich across time and light conditions.

The embroidery is done with rayon threads in a warm ivory white. These threads were selected for their durability and low-reflective sheen, allowing the design to stand proudly against the black base without overpowering it. Each motif is clean, detailed, and precisely executed—making the embroidery feel both grounded and divine.
