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 Kenya 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 Kenya 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!

    Bright and fun

    Yellow is not a color I usually gravitate to, but I'm very pleased with this print

    A sleeper keeper

    Took this one out of the bag and pretty much put it right back. I don’t think I even tried it on right away. Then saw pics in the Facebook groups and had second thoughts. Took it back out and tried it on. It is now one of my favorites! The black, white and yellow is so good together and this dress makes me so happy just wearing it. If your size is still available, don’t wait to order!

    To the Glory, Overstory

    Wow! This stylized botanical print has quickly become a favorite. Love the many different plant- inspired patterns on this dress ~ some fan-shaped, some like poppy seed heads, sinuous vines, and little hearts! Such a cheerful dress with an eye-catching combination of black, yellow, and white. Fabric is substantial but soft, not stiff. I've paired Overstory with my Transparente sweater, an Asian silk scarf, and some antique brooches on my black beret. The fan-shaped brooch is Eastlake on design, from circa 1880, and picks up on the fan motif in the dress. This dress is so much fun to wear!

    A beautiful print of 3 colours that will never get old.

    Overstory glows... I love yellow, and this print which mixes it equally with black and white is beautifully balanced... a smaller print, it is intricate and delicate yet bold and vibrant, playing up any mood... I feel incredibly cheerful yet stylish in it... a fan of yellow, I can highly recommend it to anyone who loves the warmth of the sun 🌞☀️💛 As a duster it's sublime.
