Abebe Long Sleeve Dress
Our Abebe print is inspired by ankara, a pattern and fabric style common in various parts of Africa. Ankara is seen in celebration wear, everyday wear, accessories, furniture and, more recently, fashion runways across the world. This style of fabric is known for its bright, vibrant colors and unique repeat patterns. The patterns have different cultural meanings, conveying messages to those who are gifted the fabric or see someone wearing it at an event. I’ve always loved the way I feel when wearing ankara - joyful, beautiful and connected to a greater community. Kids should feel these things too, so our ankara-inspired prints bring a traditional fabric style to comfortable kids’ clothing. I've named this print Abebe which means "fan" in Yoruba, a language spoken in Nigeria, because the design reminds me of beautiful handheld fans.
Style and comfort are a perfect match in our long sleeve dress, wonderful for everyday play. A snap on the back of the dress makes dressing a breeze, even for the squirmiest of toddlers. Made from organic cotton, this dress is comfortable, soft and safe for your child's skin. The fabric and cut give room for your baby or toddler to grow, staying stylish for even longer!
Super soft 100% organic cotton
Snap on back for easy dressing and undressing
Stretchy fabric that gives room for a snug or looser fit
Printed label on inside back to keep toddler comfortable
Machine washable for easy care
Colors may vary slightly from how they appear on a computer/smartphone screen.
