Pronounced as da-she-key, anyone who thinks a dashiki is simply a T-shirt couldn’t be more wrong. In fact, it’s much more ornate than an ordinary T-shirt. For the uninitiated, dashiki is a traditional loose-fitting garment, with a V-neckline, often embroidered and adorned with different colourful patterns. It has been around for years and worn with jeans or chinos trousers, but the new sexy twist to it now is by wearing it as a dress shirt. While some choose to wear it with a bum short underneath, other daring fashionistas go all out with it only. Another twist to this African-inspired T-shirt is that it now comes in silk and brocade material and not just cotton. Dashiki may look simple but it doesn’t come cheaply. The price ranges from N6,000 to N20,000 depending on the texture and quality of the material.

Apart from the amazing comfort of the garment, it’s also fun to wear and it’s ideal for hot, humid weather due to its loose fit. The size and shape of the garment means anyone can wear it.
