Collection: BuBu

The boubou — bubu in everyday Nigerian usage — is the flowing wide-cut robe worn by women across West Africa for celebration and ceremony. Its power is in the drape: cut generously so it moves, with the structure concentrated at the shoulder and neckline.

CNOIR boubou dresses are cut in premium African damask, each supplied with a matching headpiece and concealed inner belts so the silhouette holds through a full day of wear. Available in cream and gold, royal green, hot pink and purple, and white.

Made to order for weddings, naming ceremonies and events where you intend to be remembered.
