Whoever told you Igbos have tribal marks lied to you. You guys always lie to yourselves about Igbo culture when you know nothing about us. Oga bye

Go to google and search igbo ichi marks

By the way since you dont know adire, hardly you know velvet. Here it is nicely adorned by, of course, Yoruba woman.

This is Also Oke, traditional Yoruba indigenous Yoruba clothing, not velvet.

I swear I should not have commented but I must say that yoruba are the most primitive tribe! they hardly travel out, imagine how surprised the op is. about the "Ichafu" by our women! unlike you we know that you call it aso ebi, because we travel and have learnt that.. my grandmother wears ichafu, and what they call "gorge" there are akwaete cloths that can be found amongst igbo people to, they are purely igbo made unlike your imported own, we wear lace too, though it is gradually fading away! there is more of what we call senator amongst igbo guys... y'all are very myopic.. when you leave your enclave, you will realise that we don't eat, drink, engage with same thing you do over their in the west! East is a totally different places in all facets... if you're blind folded and was taken to igbo from west... you will know that you're in a different world!! we are not same!

Its you igbos that are primitive, stop projecting, it's unfortunate. Yorubas centuries ago created clothings STILL relevant till today, Aso Oke and Admire among others. Igbos didn't and roamed about naked while Yorubas were looming fabric and weaving cotton. "George" is imported from India, mumu. Aso Oke and Adire have always been made by Yoruba Weavers and dyers. Mumu.

Where is pazienza, feed your eyes on these pictures.

The first one and second picture you see beside the nice yummy brea.sts for good squeeze and suck and their hairdo nothing else on the girls in this Igbo picture is impressive. Look at their feet and the metal plates. You also see some ivory on them but no coral beads.

The third picture is an Igbo woman taken in the 60s, (sixties) you see the george and the blouse. No beads, no gele, no buba.

The fourth picture is a Yoruba woman taken in the 50s (fifties). You see she wore velvet, in different style to the one I posted earlier. For this and the earlier Yoruba woman you see the elaborate adornment with gold jewelries on ears, around neck, on wrist and fingers. It is easy as well to tell class, civilization and beauty. If the lady in second picture had been wearing english gown and not iro and buba it would be impossible to identify as Yoruba because of the setting and style....sophisticated!
Im sure you heard that word before.

The Yoruba woman in the last picture was wearing Aso Oke material, not Velvet and it has nothing to do with Velvet. Get it right, we wear and wore our indigenous Aso Oke not Velvet, that red bedsheet like clothe, the igbos who import from India.
