Some Nigerian women in London wore uniform outfits popularly known as ‘Aso Ebi’ to Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral on Monday.
Though wearing different colours of the same fabric, the group of women had the late queen’s image on the front of their outfits.
The pictures were shared on Owambeuk’s Instagram page on Tuesday with the caption;
Our London Aunties are not joking ooo❤️❤️❤️ Repping Naija all the way 💙💙💙. It started as a joke and one of us took it seriously.
The outfits were turned around in four days and delivered from Lagos to London the day before the event.
It went viral and the Palace has now requested for it to be displayed at the London Museum.”
