 What is a bubu gown

The Ladies's bubu dresses are one of Africa's up in years design trends, while they keep hold of present-time patterns and designs; a bubu is a long, loose-fitting, brightly colored dress worn by women. The Bubu dress/Bubu style has the unmistakable advantage of triumphantly combining modern and traditional fashion trends.

 About bubu gowns

The Bubu is the outstanding Senegalese robe, worn by both men and women all over West Africa and in West African diasporic districts of Europe and the United States. Sewn from a piece of fabric, the Bubu is usually 59 inches (150 cm) wide and of differing lengths. The stylish style, the grand boubou, generally employs a piece of fabric 117 inches (300 cm) long and thrust out to the ankles. Habitually, custom-made in workshops by tailors, the bubu is made by folding the textile in half, fashioning a neck opening, and joining the sides halfway up to make flowing sleeves. As for women the neck is large and rounded; the bubu generate it’s wearer the coming into view of a stately, elegant carriage with elevated height and presence.














The making of bubu in fabric, Embroidery and dyeing 






Tailors who particularise in making bubu’s put money into their skills in the art of embroidery. The textile for these embroidered bubu’s is cotton damask, called basin in the francophone west african countries. Although the fabric can be purchased in colors, connoisseurs would rather buy white cloth and have it hand dyed in rich hues by women dyers operating out of their homes. Obtainable in market stalls in a number of grades of quality, the damask at its most high priced comes from Europe, while inexpensive imitations come from Asia or Nigeria. After the textile is dyed, the tailor  fabricate the embroidery design with a small sewing machine,in like manner in electric or pedal driven. Habitually, the embroidery was white or beige, but in the 1970s, tailors in Dakar, Senegal, inaugurated colored embroidery.

How much MTN bosses get paid MTN Group CEO Rob Shuter was paid R58.2-million in the 2019 financial year, a 35.7% increase on his total remuneration for 2018, but even these generous rewards were not enough to keep him — he announced on 11 March that he would step down in a year’s time. Shuter earned a base salary of R17.3-million, according to the group’s 2019 integrated report, which was published on Tuesday. On top of that, he received R1.8-million in post-employment benefits; R1.1-million in “other benefits”; R27.6-million in bonuses; and R10.4-million long-term incentives, which vested in December 2019.

He cited a lack of a proper reward system for loyal members, an aging leadership structure that suppresses young voices, and policies that continue to place financial burdens on low-income earners. In his words, these issues collectively mar...
