African Prints




Beautiful colorful African prints (dark and light ones are for specific mourning or celebratory purposes, but colorful ones are for general use, I've been told by a reliable source), the latter two made through (ostensibly at least somewhat equitable) trans-Atlantic collaborations. Trapeze dress by LBD workshop $160 from Vagabond; stunning Suno skirt made in Kenya on sale for $119 at Opening Ceremony with code ADDITIONAL20 through Labor Day (was $495 -- other amazing Suno made slightly more affordable on sale through their online store and at Opening Ceremony); and Ghanaian wax print cotton tunic/dress designed by Osei-Duro and made in Ghana by the Dzidefo Women’s Cooperative, on sale for $78 (was $130) from Pour Porter.
