~Oh! Puzzled me when i cudnt see prices tags on the dresses!Unfortunately I dont know anyone in Naija but i trust they have very good tailors who wud do justice to the styles on pics for less!


~The colours are fab,am yet to own any Ankara outfit,but i've certainly been enthused to have a few in my wardrobe. . .just  not yet i suppose!

I'll even get these made with Nigerian Wax or prints made in Nigeria. I like the flavor and the styles. Plus getting them made in Nigeria keeps the money in Nigeria. The tailors will do as good a job as the dress makers. This is making me so sad that I can't get it made right now.

I[b]n addition, nigeria was/is a forced contraption that was set up to fail right from start. A failed state is a necessary precondition for the indefinite sustenance of a british contrived economy of extraction. A foreign contrivance that's promoted and protected by a local cabal with members from all persuasions but one interest: material aggrandizement by any means necessary.

Lastly, Black afurakans are the original beings, the first borns of Chukwu, the God elects with royal crowns(woolly hair). We must not compare ourselves, or allow others compare us, to other races of mutanoids. We have a unique enigmatic history and an unparalleled formidable internal /external obstacle to progress[/color].[/size]

I love the bolded. It is sad that many people still don't believe or understand that countries like Nigeria were contrived to fail especially after independence. Read the Poison Wood Bible.

Is it really the guy's decision to make?

~Vlisco Prices will put a hole in the kitty?

Do they actually sell the sewn dresses or Just the fabric? b/c When i went thro the website,even tho pics of the dresses  posted here were shown,no link to buy the dresses already sewn just the fabrics used in pics!  Can anyone in Naija confirm if they sell the clothes in their branch in Calabar?


~Am keen on having a couple of these dresses meself,prolly change one of two things about the designs. . . I suppose it's Just a matter of Finding a very Good tailor when i go home on Hols!

I don't think they sell the dresses only the fabric but if you know someone that make dresses in Nigeria, then send you measurements and a picture of what you want done and believe me the results are amazing for very cheap. I am so in love with these clothes. I am transfixed on them (wd?) I would do anything to get those made. Too bad I don't know anyone going to Nigeria.

$osisi:
You argue like a child.So all those unfortunate enough to be born Saudis, tough luck huh?
They are not free to wear the clothes they want,drive or even change their religion without fear of persecution or death?
abeg comot.
The pressure is working.They have no choice but to change eventually.
If Saudis can leave free in other societies sotay the Saudi princes are photographed on their yatchts with their gay lovers and prostitutes,that should tell them that their idiotic rules don't have any effect whatsoever on morality.
There's some statistics to show that a high number of men from those Muslim countries are gay,higher than the Western countries so they might as well set their people free since the tight leash has made the men gay since they don't see the women,they burn with passion for one another just like prisoners.

Hahahahaha!! Most of these men are definitely gay to treat women like that.

LadyT:
Just goes to show how stupid Africans can be.

I believe its a way to gather Hype and get everyone talking about Dbanj.

You all diss him but is it not 2face with[b] 5757493587349 kids and 7589325784 babymothers.[/b]

Dbanj is smart give the guy a break.

Hahahaha, I remember a Jamaican artist (Mr. Lex) that made a song about 10 babies with 10 women. So maybe that whats up with 2face.

Savannaha I agree with you, the people of Saudi Arabia have consulted with you as you pointed out.

And from the way you feel I can deduce they are groaning in silence. I think you as the latest Moses should go and rescue them.

May Allah be with you. 

Well if going by what you say we should let the women suffer so as not to Frenchize or Britinize them. Allah or Baal or whatever can't help me because am not going to Saudi Arabia and I don't believe in him. Beg your Allah to change the Qu'ran and the perceptions Saudi Arabians have of women

Oh I saw some other ones today

Then you have no case against Saudi Arabia.

Didn't the United States sign against toture? But privates Cheney is everywhere aguing how the end justifies the means.

And like I say dont try to rob peter to pay paul, Saudi Arabia is not toturing its own citizens. Its a law in Saudi Arabia, its people have choosen to abide by that law. I dont see how your argument of torture comes in.

How are you sure they have CHOSEN to abide? Do you know the consequences of accidentally not abiding much more knowingly going against a tyrannical law?

@savahana. Are u sure u understand english at all. I told u to list what Nigeria can boast of and u didnt list any. of course u can only boast of poverty,crime,corruption,inflation,unemployment,diseases,etc. Am a full Nigerian but i must say the truth about my country.talking about racism,it exists everywhere including USA,UK,SWEDEN,NIGERIA. The skinheads attacks only lazy and hooliganic foreigners who breaks the law.To me skinheads are better than the Nigerian militants.Just last week in my neighbourhood,a 14 year old girl was hit with a stray bullet from driveby shooters suspected to be militants.i guess u listen to NTA network news to see how Nigerians die unnecessarily like fowls.So,stop justifying what even todlers like u already knows. Ukraine is not heaven,it is not even among the richest countries in europe but it is far more developed than Nigeria in all aspect.The cia fact book u are claiming to have read does not even recognise Nigeria that much.So,i guess u make more research.

Before you wonder about my English go to the CIA World factbook and see the comparison of each thing. And to claim that skinheads attack on lazy people is BS and you know it. Unless Jews in a synagogue are lazy foreigners or a black person coming off a bus has lazy written all over them. At least it was a stray bullet unlike Ukraine where someone will intentionally stab you for your color. Before you BS yourself check sh$t out for yourself . Maybe you are afraid to checkout the CIA world factbook to show how incorrect you are.

doggybaggy:
@savahana. Just tell me what ur country can boast of? Virtually nothing.are u really safe in ur country? Capital NO. 4 ur information ukrainain universities are far more better than Nigerian universities.so,shut ur mouth and leave this post,u are not welcomed.i can teach u how to create ur own post if u dont know how.

Ohh so you are Ukrainian getting pissed at the truth. My country can boast about more than your country. How old are you? Go look up the CIA fact book for the two countries and you will see there is nothing about your country Ukraine that is soooo much better than Nigeria. Of course you won't warn the people signing their life away that Amnesty international is currently trying to solve the deeply racist sentiments of your beloved country Ukraine. What the heck about Ukrainian Universities makes them better than Nigerian ones? The fact that people travel all the way their and spend so much money not to get a job in Europe and possibly get killed. If you were representing Sweden or a Scandinavian country where I know you wish you were then maybe I would have nothing to say.

Inform the people you are soliciting they have a high chance of being stabbed to death by some skin heads for being black. Give them some type of warning so they know they are going possibly to their death. At least in Nigeria we don't kill foreigners.

Ikomi:
Look young man. You are not the advocate of those women. When they think the time is right they would fight for there own rights.

Afterall in old Britain it was the same women that stood up for there own right to vote, when women were not allowed to vote. Until someday a woman became the Prime Minister. Nobody imposed it on good old Britain that they should allow women to vote.

In America Blacks did not count for anything, but today they have a black man as the President.

In France there was a time when there was a great difference between the rich and the poor. The poor never walks the streets of the rich, until the great revolution. It was carried out by the poor French men themselves.

I could go on and on and on.

So my dear friend Savannah all these great so called democracies evolved at their own pace.

I don't see why they think they have the right to evolve at there own pace and others should be fast forwarded.

So my dear Savannah everything works at its own time, when the women of Saudi need your help am sure they would consult you.

Am sure that women and girls who are killed for being raped and burnt with acid for going to school will definitely stand up for their right very soon. Bout the help, don't worry yourself they already have asked for my help and I have helped them and are helping them the way I can. They will surely stand up when the indoctrinations of the Qu'ran, husband, father and Imam into docility end. I bet that will be very soon!!

No one is saying Saudi Arabia should be like France, Britain or whatever what we are saying is UAE and other Muslim countries realize that women are not sub humans, lest we forget. . .

doggybaggy:
@savanaha . This post is obviously not you,you are just talking out of point.
@prince84 and dantalife. U guys should settle ur differences amicable.we need peace in this forum.

And your obviously not smart if you are so into going to a country that is in a bad a state as yours. There is nothing in Ukraine that is that much better than Nigeria, they don't even speak English. They have it as bad going to other countries, so what's the point of going their to study. To study in Sweden is free and you will comeback with your life intact.

sistawoman:
No i cant be mad at that ho. A ho will do what a ho will do.

It is my man that should say "Get behind me Satan"

There are too many steps between getting ready to have sex with someone and actully doing it. There are too many chances for my husband to realize that he is not about to have sex with his wife but someone else.

It is to him that I made a lifelong commitment and him the same.

It is him that expect to uphold that commitment above all else.

THANK YOU!!! Women would rather blame another woman for their problem rather than their man. I had a friend that was cheated on by her boyfriend and she wanted to blame it on the girl he cheated with. The poor girl had no idea he was in a "relationship" nor was she interested in the guy.

Ikomi:
Its as simple as ABC.

"If you cant stand the heat stay out of the kitchen."

If you cant stand Saudi laws dont go to Saudi Arabia. If a your visitor sees the food you dish out to him as stale, then let him not come back. Why must he try to change your way of life.  

The same thing the colonialist did to Africa and we still have'nt found our footing till tomorrow.

What in the world makes you think your culture or way of life is the best? Cultures evolve, and like an ocean liner it takes time to turn.

What about the women that are forced into the system. Women are sometimes raped as revenge to the family and they are still killed for honor and not much done to the men. These women are under fire but can't stay out the kitchen, what do they do?
PS, I have no plans of going to Saudi Arabia, never have, never will

biina:
In most parts of the world, the elite class often gets away with crimes while the poor suffer. It is not exclusive to Saudi Arabia, or are all african countries Islamic states?

While Turkey has a large population of Muslims, it is not an Islamic state, and thus it is unfair to compare t to Saudi Arabia. Turkey is a secular state with a parliamentary democracy. If you want fair comparison, why not use other islamic states like Iran or Pakistan.

Iran and Pakistan have their own share of problems that stem from Islam. UAE might be the best example.

Ikomi:
I strongly think your attitude of jumping into conclusion sometimes is not very right.

If the Saudis believe that death penalty is the way to go, good for them, Saudis are learned pple on the average. T[b]he illiteracy level in many other nation is worse than that of the Saudis, but they have choosen that the death penalty is still the way to go.
[/b]
So I think sometimes people should be left with their believes, and surely someday they would gradually grow out of it. Afterall when was the death penalty abolished in the Sates?  

It is easy to leave someone with their belief system til its your turn. Do you know how many foreigners and women are killed by these learned people because they are not allowed to properly defend themselves in court? If you go to Saudi Arabia and they decide to call you a witch, Christian or anything that will allow them to behead you without trail, remind yourself that they are learned.

RichyBlacK:
Saudi Arabia needs to climb out of the dark ages it has buried herself in for centuries and stop beheading women for very stupid accusations like "witchcraft". _{Witches are harmless members of society and are no more dangerous to society than a nuclear scientist is dangerous to society.}

When will those idiots running Saudi Arabia behead a prince? Or the princes don't commit crimes? Such nasty punishments are reserved for the poor, those not connected to the so-called royal family, women, foreigners and migrant laborers.

It is sad that cruelty has come to define the essence of the wicked interpretation of Islam by an out-dated monarchy that is supposed to be a shining example of the benevolence of Islam.

While seemingly progressive Muslim nations like Turkey have banned the death penalty, socially retrogressive nations like Saudi-Arabia still relish the sight of the lifeless head of a middle-aged mother. Will the Muslims in Saudi-Arabia claim to be closer to Allah than the Muslims in Turkey? Allah will judge. As for me, I'm making my own judgment now:
A thousand shouts of shame to the entire government of Saudi Arabia!

So the people practicing Sharia Law in Nigeria are idiots. I knew it!!! They need more than a thousand shout of shame for what they do. I pity the poor women that live their, everyday is the same game of Russian Roulette

Do you guys not understand that Ukraine and Russia are pretty racist. I don't get the point of leaving Nigeria to go to a country as bad as Nigeria. Go to Botswana or Ghana. Or some small Caribbean country like St. Nevis and the Grenadines, Turks and Caicos. At least there you won't stick out like a sore thumb and no one will hate you because your black. If you love Europe go to Sweden or some other Scandinavian country.

Type Google, when Google comes up then type "Wentworth Miller Dead" or "Wentworth Miller Alive" something will come up.

I like how the white man is watching them from the corner of his eyes.

spikedcylinder:
The prices will shock you.

If I was in Nigeria or Ghana I'm sure I could take the picture to a dressmaker/seamstress and get her to make some of these for like $30 a dress. Anyone on here going to Nigeria soon?

tpiah:
In the US for instance

besides, there are African names which have been anglicized eg [b]Coffee/Cuffee/Cuiffee [/b]or something which I think was originally Ghanaian or central African.

Anyone looking for old African names in America should start from the southern states like Mississippi, not the northern areas where many of the whites immigrated from Europe within the last century or two.

And you're more likely to find place names that were originally African or native American, not people's names, since those change all the time.

In Africa, "whites" with African names are more likely to have intermarried with and diffused into the local population over time, so what you'd have are Africans with white surnames.

For them to remain white and keep their African names, they'd have to be a distinct community like the Afrikaners in south Africa, with a policy of segregation in order to maintain that whiteness.

Thor:
Only people can make it change, but unfortunately many of the people in Nigeria are long lost to the corruption and general laziness that exists at root level.

Look at all the lazy, good for nothing criminal 419 boys, how many do you see spending their whole days sitting in internet cafes?

When a country has cancer, an aspirin will not cure it, needs radical surgery, but who is going to be the surgeon?
