Sir Rotel Fashion designs and hand-finishes Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa native wear — agbada, aso-oke, isiagu and babban riga — cut to measure for weddings, chieftaincy and every occasion that calls for your finest cloth.
Sir Rotel Fashion was built on a simple conviction: native wear is not costume, it is inheritance. Every agbada, isiagu and babban riga that leaves the atelier is cut for the body wearing it, not for a rack — measured, drafted and hand-finished until the fit says as much about the man or woman inside it as the fabric does.
Working from Queen's Cinema, Ibadan, the house serves clients across the three major traditions of Nigerian dress, pairing hand-woven aso-oke, velvet isiagu and richly embroidered babban riga with the styling — gele, cap, beads, wrapper — that completes a look for its occasion, whether that's a wedding, a chieftaincy conferment, or a Sunday best.
A commission moves through four stages, each done by hand and checked in person before it moves to the next.
A conversation about the occasion, the tradition you want to honour, and the silhouette that suits you — in person or on WhatsApp.
Aso-oke, velvet, brocade or lace is selected together, then every measurement is taken by hand for a fit built to last.
Cutting, hand embroidery and a first fitting, with adjustments made on the spot until the drape sits exactly right.
A final press, a last look in the mirror, and your piece is ready — in good time before the date it was made for.
Every commission starts with a conversation about the event, the culture being honoured, and the fabric that suits both.
Full three-piece agbada in hand-woven aso-oke, with fila and beads styled to match — built for grooms, chiefs and Owambe royalty.
Velvet isiagu with lion-head embroidery, paired with George wrapper and coral-bead guidance for title-taking and traditional weddings.
Flowing babban riga over kaftan and wando, with hand-embroidered necklines finished to the elegance the North is known for.
Matching outfits for the couple, the family and the asoebi train — colours, fabric and gele coordinated across every guest.

A few notes from clients Sir Rotel has dressed for their biggest days.
"My agbada fit better than anything I'd ever worn off a rack — the aso-oke was exactly the blue we picked, and it was ready a full week before my wedding."
"I wanted my isiagu to feel like it belonged to me, not a hire. Sir Rotel got the fit and the embroidery exactly right for my title ceremony."
"Every outfit for our asoebi train matched down to the gele. Guests kept asking who did our tailoring — now I just send them here."
Come by the atelier in Ibadan, or reach out on WhatsApp with your event date and the style you have in mind — a fitting will be scheduled from there.
