Good day nairalanders.
I will make it very brief. Please I need your advice.
I've been a nairalander since 2016 but this is my first official post.

My father is a good, noble and humble man. A successful business man. He's very proud of us (his children), we're also proud of him. We're 3. I'm 29 years of age, the eldest and only son. He make sure we don't lack anything. We all went to one of the prestigious Private University in Nigeria. I and my immediate baby sis are graduate, while last born still in 300l.

The problem is that, my father don't know how to dress, he prefer to wear faded and worn out clothes. My dad drive highlander 2014 model. If my Dad comes down from his car, you will think he's a driver to an imaginary Boss because of the way he dressed.
Blessed memories of my beloved mom May her soul R.I.P. She was always complaining and sometimes my Dad won't listen to her.

I'm a good fashion designer, my love for fashion is topnotch. I also own a laundry store and a barbing store. I've been privileged to sew some clothes for comedian Buchi which he loves so much and he promised to patronize me again.

GOD in heaven knows how many lovely, mature and soft dress I've sew and bought for my father with my money. He only wears it once and won't wear it again, there are some he haven't put on at all. He celebrated his birthday August, I bought this nice shirt 18k for him as a gift. Till today he hasn't put it on.

Please note: money is not his problem. The other day he stopped by at my store, I and my boys were working. He noticed nobody was using one of my industrial machines. He asked and I said it was faulty. He said how much? I said 170k but I'll change it soon before January....(because I just wrapped my car from corolla to ES Lexus)....Before I could say Jack... Baba don send me 200k. I ordered the machine instantly.

See what happened this morning, He got an invitation to attend a meeting. The smartest way to dress for a highly regarded man like him is native wear.
So he gave me this faded black trouser turning white to brush for him, that he wanted to wear it for the meeting...See eh, It was so annoying. I went to his room gathered the nice, starched and ironed native I could gather and I told him to select one, that I won't brush that faded trouser. He started saying ... " I'm proving stubborn and all manner things"... I'm sure our tenants could hear our argument.

Please Nairalanders. What can I do to make my Dad dress well. I plan to set fire on those faded and worn out clothes but it will look so disrespectful. I'm sure his friends have accepted his mode of dressing.
My siblings and I are tired of complaining.

Please I need an advice!!!

I have some advice below to help change your father

First advice organise people to beat him up on the road for his poor dress sense or. Pls disregard this advice make you no go kill am. Check out the other advice. grin


Second advice, arrange people to make jest of his clothes, just random People. Or their gossip should get to his ear about a grown man who is well to do dressing and behaving like a village man.


Third advise is get him a mirror and place it where he will see it anytime he is done dressing.


Fourth advice, get your sisters to talk to him, Fathers tend to listen to their daughter more. Especially the one he likes most.


Fifth advice is get his respected friends to talk to him or call him out on why he wears crazy clothes respectfully. He has peers or friends they will surely be able to get through to him.


[right][/right]Bonus advice: find out what his poison is, woman or alcohol... If na woman, arrange one babe for am make the girl dey dress am up. If na alcohol get his drinking buddies to advice him.

4th advice should be taken smiley

Most dads at his age do not give priority to certain things like good fashion sense. He probably sees it like something left for the younger generation to enjoy. But all the same apply wisdom to it by gradually removing those old clothes of his one after the other while you replace them with new decent ones which would suit him .Meanwhile you and your siblings should stop complaining about his fashion style but focus on doing things that gives him joy.Pls enjoy his presence with you guys each day . Everyother thing would fall into place.

Get one fashion conscious and virtuous lady for your dad to marry.I mean the kind of woman that will be able to influence his fashion trend.If your dad can fall in love with that woman,the fashion issue will be over.But be careful sha o,not to get the pretentious one that will sweep your dad away from you all.

Perez99, imagine if someone tried to change the way you dress, how would you feel?

Let him be. Let him wear what makes him comfortable and face the consequences

If someday he gets into trouble for the way he dresses, he may decide to change his style but probably not until then

Allow the old man be. You can't teach an old dog a new trick. He became so just so you guys will amount to something in life, as it stands, those "worn out fabrics" are the the alternative forgone for your education and that of your siblings, so whenever you see him put on those clothes, just remember those are his badge of dignity, sacrifice, blood sweat and tears for the soft landing you and your siblings now enjoy. Providing and taking care of his family are his default setting.

I guess he dress like that for a reason. My boss at work does the same thing . He has cars but doesn't drive to work . He would rather use Keke . He sometimes brings people to carry out task in our office and he would begged me to act as the boss while him as the messenger or just a referal. He's an igbo man , he normally call his people(igbo) to do casual work in our company (trying to help them) but he will never allow them to know that he's our boss. The reason is for his own safety . He cares so much about security than anything else. Apart from that it helps him to cut down unnecessary expenses. People won't line up in his house daily trying to get money .

I agree with this. If it is loose t- shirt and jeans your dad likes to wear, get him same if possible the same colour. And watch how he will wear them. Then gradually you ask him if you can do away with some of the old ones. Before you know all the old clothes will be gone and replaced with new ones.

Dear Op, just gather all his faded attires and burn it. I think with that he won’t have any reason to put on a faded cloth.
Re: Help!!! How Do I Change My Father's Mode Of Dressing. by GboyegaD(m): 2:24pm On Nov 20, 2021
Hide all the old clothes but do that gradually. That will force him to stay wearing the newer ones. Once they start getting so fade, as usual, his them again. As for native, please don't force that on him. Instead, ensure he has enough of what he likes to wear.

People to insult and gossip him, and you think the man will be moved, there is something about some people both old and new generation who make their money legitimately, and that thing is they have nothing to prove to anyone that they are rich.

The problem is that, my father don't know how to dress, he prefer to wear faded and worn out clothes. My dad drive highlander 2014 model. If my Dad comes down from his car, you will think he's a driver to an imaginary Boss because of the way he dressed.
Blessed memories of my beloved mom May her soul R.I.P. She was always complaining and sometimes my Dad won't listen to her.

I'm a good fashion designer, my love for fashion is topnotch. I also own a laundry store and a barbing store. I've been privileged to sew some clothes for comedian Buchi which he loves so much and he promised to patronize me again.

GOD in heaven knows how many lovely, mature and soft dress I've sew and bought for my father with my money. He only wears it once and won't wear it again, there are some he haven't put on at all. He celebrated his birthday August, I bought this nice shirt 18k for him as a gift. Till today he hasn't put it on.

Please note: money is not his problem. The other day he stopped by at my store, I and my boys were working. He noticed nobody was using one of my industrial machines. He asked and I said it was faulty. He said how much? I said 170k but I'll change it soon before January....(because I just wrapped my car from corolla to ES Lexus)....Before I could say Jack... Baba don send me 200k. I ordered the machine instantly.

See what happened this morning, He got an invitation to attend a meeting. The smartest way to dress for a highly regarded man like him is native wear.
So he gave me this faded black trouser turning white to brush for him, that he wanted to wear it for the meeting...See eh, It was so annoying. I went to his room gathered the nice, starched and ironed native I could gather and I told him to select one, that I won't brush that faded trouser. He started saying ... " I'm proving stubborn and all manner things"... I'm sure our tenants could hear our argument.

Please Nairalanders. What can I do to make my Dad dress well. I plan to set fire on those faded and worn out clothes but it will look so disrespectful. I'm sure his friends have accepted his mode of dressing.
My siblings and I are tired of complaining.

Please I need an advice!!!









Show us his mode of dressing

Leave him. Just love every bit of him the way he is.

Tip: On his birthday, you and your siblings should all wear worn out dresses then organise a small family birthday surprise for him. Life isn't that difficult bro, just relax.

You better use your tongue to count your teeth and leave the old man's clothes and way of dressing alone. It is not every thing they will explain to you. You're no longer a child.
