  • Insider Notes

    • Based between Accra and New York, Studio 189's Summer '20 focus is on symbolic patterns and symbols that convey historical values and messages. The Crossroads Mermaid skirt is reminicent of the "Freedom Quilts" created by enslaved Africans in America on their path to freedom. It's figure-hugging from the waist to the knee, then falls into a dramatic fishtail silhouette. Hand-batiked in a black-and-white harlequin design; you can pair this piece with the Ruffle Cuff Shirt for a runway-ready look.

      - CB zipper fastening
      - Cotton
      - Each piece is made to order by artisans and can take up to 5 weeks to complete
