Christmas may be behind us, and the premiere of Toyin Abraham’s Oversabi Aunty may have already wrapped, but some looks deserve a second moment. Kaybobo’s red Yoruba agbada is one of them.

Worn to the Oversabi Aunty premiere, the ensemble instantly stood out—not just for its bold colour, but for how effortlessly it captured the spirit of celebration. And if there’s one thing the festive season understands deeply, it’s red.

The look featured a classic Yoruba agbada crafted in rich red aso-oke, accented with clean white vertical stripes that ran through the garment, adding structure and visual rhythm. The traditional three-piece set—the flowing agbada, the inner buba with trousers, and a matching cap came together to create a commanding yet refined silhouette.

Staying true to cultural elegance, Kaybobo layered coral beads around his neck, a timeless Yoruba accessory that added depth and heritage to the look. He finished the outfit with sleek black patent shoes, grounding the bold colour palette with a polished edge.

More than just an outfit, the look felt intentional—festive without being loud, traditional without feeling dated. With his confident posture and understated styling, Kaybobo reminded us that when culture, colour, and confidence align, the result is unforgettable.
