This beautiful and comfortable, upcycled dress combines the gorgeous traditional fabrics of Africa with rugged American tradition of denim chambray with a soft, modern rayon twist.
The button-front chambray top of this unique dress seems to have been worn for decades due to it's aged appearance and oh, so soft feel. It's paired with a vibrant patchwork of traditional African Ankara and Batik prints for a colorful and fun dress that can be worn year-round.
The sleeves are full-lengthat 23", but roll up and button to 15" for a warm weather look or for a layered look. Two substantial patch pockets with decorative fringe give you plenty of room for your phone and other essentials and an embroidered and beaded Lily patch bring some of the vibrant colors from the skirt up into the top for a final touch.
Metak button closure. One-of-a-kind!
