Mother regrets trusting tailor to style daughter’s outfit


A Nigerian mother has gone viral after sharing her disappointment over a tailor’s failed attempt to replicate a stylish outfit for her daughter.

In a video posted to social media, the mother, known online as @keyu.mamie on TikTok, showcased the original sample she had provided to the tailor alongside the final result.

The frustrated mom explained that she had entrusted the job to a tailor on her street, hoping for a close replica of the chosen design. Instead, the outcome, according to her, resembled a cartoon character’s costume rather than the sleek ensemble she had envisioned.

The video has drawn widespread attention, triggering a flood of comments. While some sympathised with the mother’s disappointment, others believed the backlash against the tailor was exaggerated.

Reactions:

Awesome GOD: “She did well, just reduce the length of the trouser.”

@nmaprecious28: “It’s the same, just make your daughter’s hair—you’ll see the beauty.”
