Animal skin are basically in all traditions and culture around the world, even European.

There are many fabrics made in what is today's Nigeria before Europeans came, however, full covering in this very hot region is not really our full culture.

We had native fabrics too but these ones you see up their are obviously old European wears.


Example of such fabric and which culture uses it

The tradition wants to ensure the woman is comfortable in her marriage

So the man will provide it, and to show he is capable of taking care of his bride

Confiiirrmm.!!
Marriage in Kalabari is only for the rich men.
If you cannot buy the heaps of clothes and other materials, then wait.
If not, you have to borrow money and buy them.
