Description

About the Product

Aso-Oke, a short form of Aso Ilu Oke, also known as Aso-Ofi, translates to “clothes from the up-country.” This iconic fabric embodies Yoruba identity, artistry, and storytelling, deserving appreciation beyond just the occasional owambe slay. It originated from Iseyin in Oyo State, historically known as the “Home of…”

Where culture meets couture, the Yoruba people dazzle in àșo-òkè elegance at every occasion. Àșo-òkè is a traditional, hand-woven fabric from the Yoruba people in southwestern Nigeria. The name Àșo-Òkè translates to “Top Cloth,” signifying its high status, and can be called “Ofi” or “Aso-“.

Yoruba culture is known for its rich textile traditions, with some of its most prized fabrics being Alari, Sanyan, and Etu. These handwoven textiles, collectively referred to as Aso Ofi, are more than just clothing; they represent heritage, status, and craftsmanship.

In modern times, Iseyin, which has claimed the title “home of aso ofi,” has seen research reveal that various types of aso ofi such as eya, takunsi, damask, silk, cotton, net, metallic, monogramming, wire-to-wire, super net, painting, double weaving, and check are now used. The aforementioned are the historic aso types.
