Adire Inner Belt Gown
The Adire Inner Belt Gown is a fluid, open front piece that falls to mid calf and gives you two ways to wear it, open as a duster coat over your outfit, or belted using the inner belt panel for a fitted, dress like shape. The body is worked in red, gold and cream resist dye adire, paired with a striking purple zebra print inner belt that adds an unexpected contrast against the softer tones. It is an easy piece to throw over anything when you want instant colour and movement, from a summer dress underneath to jeans and a plain top. This one comes in a single generous size, cut to sit comfortably across a range of body shapes.
Hand-Dyed Adire from Nigeria
This gown is made from adire, Nigeria’s resist dye textile, hand dyed using tie and fold techniques that make every pattern unique. Because the dye is applied by hand, the markings on this piece belong to it alone, no other gown carries exactly the same pattern. Adire is lightweight and breathable by nature, which is what allows a piece this flowing to move the way it does, and it only gets softer the more you wear it.
Care Guide
- Hand wash cold or gentle machine wash
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry, lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight
- Iron inside out on a low setting
- Expect a small release of colour in the first wash, this is normal for resist dye fabric
Sizing & Fit
This gown comes in one generous size, designed with an open front and adjustable inner belt so it comfortably fits a wide range of body shapes. Wear it open for a looser, more relaxed drape, or belted for a closer fit through the middle.
