Ubi Franklin Reveals High Cost Of Sewing Agbada With Seyi Vodi

Talent manager and media personality Ubi Franklin has sparked an online conversation after revealing the significant cost of getting a custom Agbada made by celebrity tailor Seyi Vodi.

In a recent social media post, Ubi shared his experience working with the famous fashion designer, noting that quality craftsmanship comes at a premium price. While many people focus on the cost of the material, Ubi highlighted that the expertise, branding, and detailed finishing provided by top-tier tailors like Vodi are what drive the final cost into the hundreds of thousands of Naira.

According to the media mogul, having a celebrity stylist sew a single Agbada outfit can cost as much as ₦500,000 or more, depending on the design’s complexity. He explained that for many high-profile individuals, the price is an investment in a “masterpiece” that stands out at any event.

Seyi Vodi is well known in the Nigerian fashion industry for dressing top politicians, business moguls, and entertainers. His designs often feature intricate embroidery and “executive silhouettes” that have become a signature look for the Nigerian elite.
