<p>I have never really liked attending or being involved in weddings. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I Love &#8220;LOVE&#8221; and I like the happiness in the eyes of the couple on their big day..</p>
<p>My friend called me to inform me about her cousins Aseobi, I didn&#8217;t think I was going to do any Aso ebi this year,I didn&#8217;t want to. The stress of sewing, the money involved.. The commitments.. Nah, not me.</p>
<p>Aso-Ebi means &#8220;clothes for the family&#8221; but it has evolved into &#8220;clothes for friends&#8221;</p>
<p>After a second thought I decided to get the material, I&#8217;ll have to go for the wedding anyway and I&#8217;ll need to get an outfit so why not just get this? It won&#8217;t hurt plus I&#8217;m getting older and people say the &#8220;Aso ebi &#8221; girls meet suitors more, so why not?</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t want the regular Aso ebi styles, using the same material all through and the Aseoke for just the head.. I wanted my outfit to look traditional with a bit of modern touch. I can be a little extra so I wanted my gown to flow and have a very long tail so that when dancing, the person behind me will be far off, but the fabric was just 3yards and it couldn&#8217;t work out.. ;<a href="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_5804.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-241" src="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_5804.png" alt="" width="640" height="1136"></a><br />
I love off-shoulders because it flatters my beauty bone that is almost invisible due to the uninvited fat that keeps coming into my system.. You can see that I used my Ase oke for the off shoulder and then a sequin fabric to make the outfit look a bit Modern.</p>
<p>I wanted to do everything right and look really good , so I contacted a professional makeup artist, I didn&#8217;t eat a lot two days before the wedding so that my dress will fit perfectly.. So, we had a group chat for the brides maids and the Aso ebi girls, some people in the group were already gushing about their dresses and how they&#8217;ll slay.. I didn&#8217;t say a word, I like to suprise people..</p>

<p>LADIES AND GENTLEMEN (rings bells) welcome Dodeye, to her first Aso ebi wedding&#8230; ;<a href="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6393.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-242" src="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6393.jpg" alt="" width="3024" height="4032"></a></p>
<p>Notice my Aso eke was tied like a rose? I wanted to look really English, I guess I kind of tried.. It was a really simple looking yet complicated style.. It looked like I didn&#8217;t try so hard but I did. I practically choked the tailor more than once..</p>
<p>You know how hard it is to explain a style without a picture? Shout out to My tailor for making me look exactly how I wanted..  ;<a href="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6434.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-243" src="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6434.jpg" alt="" width="3024" height="4032"></a><br />
See the back? The small tail? I wanted it longer but I guess the universe said &#8220;chill&#8221; and my material decided to finish.. ;<a href="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6450.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-244" src="https://dodeyescorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_6450.jpg" alt="" width="3024" height="4032"></a><br />
I got a thousand and one compliments, I got a lot of complimentary looks from people, hateful looks from some of the Aso ebi girls. All of it was flattering, I got to dance, go down, go back and then move a little bit to the front ..</p>
<p>Guess what? The person behind me had to be far back&#8230;</p>
<p>I am sorry I made it about myself and not the bride.. That is why this post is in the &#8220;Vain Corner&#8221; categories&#8230;</p>
<p>Have you ever been involved in Aso ebi ? How did you slay? You can drop pictures on the comment section&#8230;</p>
