    Meet our production partner, SOKO Kenya! Based in Kikambala on the Kenyan coast, they are an ethical manufacturer that truly embraces a fair, kind and transparent work culture. In addition to paying above living wages, SOKO provides employees with paid leave and stipends for family emergencies, free pre-primary childcare for all employees with children from ages 2-4, daily mid-morning tea and midday lunch, and clear, outlined processes for job advancement. These values extend to the workspace itself, which is open, airy and bright. It’s truly a privilege to work with the SOKO team, and we invite you to learn more about the stitching process here!

    We work with an incredible network of fabric vendors in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi to source textiles. Over the years and many hundreds of prints, we've learned a lot about how to select fabrics. We truly have these women to thank for sharing their knowledge and trust, and in doing so, creating such a mutually supportive experience. Learn more about our process and our vendors here!

      Not my colours, BUT!

      Empire State's colours are definitely NOT for my skin tone, but I had to have it! I was happy to snag the last one in my size. The designs on the pattern are so beautiful, I should hang it up as a piece of art.

      Gorgeous

      Empire State arrived a bit darker than I was expecting, but the colors are rich, saturated, and gorgeous! The fit was perfect and just as expected. It was a lovely dress to wear to celebrate my fall birthday and will go into rotation for work, too. The weight is a bit heavier than some of my other dresses, perfect for fall and chillier days! (I purchased medium standard length, I'm 5'3", 170lbs.)

      Elegant and unique

      Empire has an amazing Art Deco pattern and beautifully unique color pattern with vibrant purples and Dijon . It’s a dress that is perfect for nice events or a casual day in the park. So comfortable and beautiful. I really love it!
