Locally made from breathable cotton and carefully hand-dyed using traditional methods, the elegant floor-length silhouette features a neat round neckline, long sleeves with playful cutouts, and a thigh-high split to add to its feminine appeal.

Nigeria

Sustainable brand NKWO relaunched in 2012 in Nigeria, with a focus on the preservation of traditional craft while curbing the damaging effects of textile waste. Each ready-to-wear piece is crafted using traditional West African weaving, beading, hand-dyeing and embroidery. The designer created her own fabric—using a modern strip weaving technique—dubbed “Dakala.” This hand-loomed upcycled fabric has a distinctively rich feel and is featured in each collection.
