Description: A floor-sweeping maxi silhouette rendered in vibrant hand-dyed adire batik fabric — a centuries-old Nigerian textile tradition. The square neckline and dramatically puffed elbow-length sleeves bring editorial drama to a naturally gathered bodice, while a fitted empire waist flows into a full A-line skirt. The bold, organic print in burnt orange, teal, and olive evokes tropical foliage, and is unique to every piece due to the hand-dyeing process. Styled here with a structured rattan box bag, gold floral earrings, and nude strappy sandals.

At Africa Creates, we do not believe in the myth of predefined sizes. Each body is different and deserves an outfit just as unique. Therefore, to use this guide, we recommend using your measurements in inches (as explained below) rather than the "4 to 22" sizes.
From there you can select the corresponding international size for your order, and each seller will then be able to make sure to send the PERFECT fit for YOU!
