'The beauty of the Nigerian person
Of course, wearing traditional Nigerian fashion in a chilly part of the world has its challenges.
"Wearing Nigerian fashion in Newfoundland and Labrador sometimes is not that easy, because fabrics are lighter," said Esther Olorunsere-Oduekun, a Nigerian who has lived in St. John's for five years. "But if I was wearing a regalia like this, it's thicker, so it's easily wearable because the cold wouldn't get to me."
Olorunsere-Oduekun says a classic Nigerian look incorporates many elements, all of which have cultural significance.
"When I think about Nigerian fashion, the most important things that come to my mind are the colours, the regalia, the headgear. And sometimes even the accessories you have. You have corals, we use real corals to depict royalty and abundance."
For Ifeoma Ineh, a Nigerian who has lived in St. John's for three years, the most important part of Nigerian fashion is the bold, bright colours.
"Nigerians are very confident people, and we represent part of it by showing the multi-colourful outfits." she said. "And it brings out the beautiful you, and it confidence you to the society. So instead of wearing just a plain colours, we grace the occasion with multiple colours."
Ineh says that Nigerian fashion is about more than just looks.
"When I think about Nigerian fashion, I think about elegance, the confidence, the beauty of the Nigerian person comes out in our clothing." she said. "We make sure we make a statement wherever we step out."
Somkene Mbakwe hopes that people of all cultures will step out for Nigeria Week events. But he says the fashion that made his country famous is always on display.
"If you want to see Nigerians dressed in this very elegant, attractive fashion, go to churches, go to the mosque, go to events, go to Nigerian weddings! That's where you see it, and you're going to see a lot of us, even on ordinary days, just want to look good."
