Embellished Ankara Bubu Gown - African Kaftan Maxi Dress
A floor length Ankara bubu gown with a stone embellished panel running down the centre front, embellishment at the neckline and across the sleeve edges. Cut wide and loose through the body with slits at both sides, so it moves with you rather than holding you in. The bubu is one of the few silhouettes that does formal without doing tight. No waistband, no fastening to fight with, nothing that stops working after a long meal. It reads as dressed up because of the embellishment and the length, not because it is restrictive. Available in two prints: a green Ankara with a dense repeating pattern, and a brown Ankara scattered with multicoloured circular motifs. Both carry the same embellished centre panel and neckline. Wear it for owambe, weddings, introductions, church, Eid or Christmas, or any evening where you want to arrive finished. It works with flats and it works with heels, which is more than most floor length dresses manage. Made in Nigeria by Oluwatobiloba Global Concept. Because each gown is finished individually, the exact placement of the stonework and the print varies a little from one to the next. Care: hand wash cold or dry clean. Do not soak and do not bleach. Turn the gown inside out to press on a low heat, and keep the iron away from the stonework, which can lift with direct heat.

Mustard Yellow Beaded Strap Peplum Maxi Dress, Made to Measure
Mustard yellow maxi dress with beaded shoulder straps and a gathered peplum waist, cut in 100% cotton so it holds its structure through a long day. The fitted bodice and defined high waist create a clean hourglass line, while the floor length skirt falls with weight and movement. The beaded straps and dramatic peplum carry the detail, so the dress reads as a finished look without extra styling. Made for occasion wear: wedding guest outfits, engagement parties, owambe and aso ebi events, birthday dinners, church anniversaries and evening receptions. The solid mustard tone photographs cleanly in both daylight and indoor lighting. Available made to measure. Instead of a standard size chart, the dress is cut to your own bust, waist, hip and length measurements, which you provide at checkout. Made to order by an independent designer on Sokofa and shipped worldwide with DHL tracking.

Green & Gold Ankara Blazer Dress - Made to Measure
A tailored Ankara blazer dress in green and gold African print, cut to your own measurements. Above the knee, long sleeves, lapel collar. This is African print built for a room where you have to be taken seriously. The blazer construction does the work: a sharp lapel, a defined shoulder and a clean line through the waist, so the print reads as deliberate rather than loud. It is the difference between wearing Ankara and wearing a suit that happens to be Ankara. The cloth is a gold ground crossed with bands of bright green, with small blocks of pink and lilac set inside the bands and a visible weave to the surface. It is warmer and busier than a thumbnail suggests, and that is the point. It photographs well and it holds its colour under office lighting, which is where most print dresses fall down. Where it works: the office, church, a conference, a graduation, a registry wedding, a product launch or a shoot. Anywhere you want to be the most composed person in the room without defaulting to black. Style it the way it is shot: a plain court shoe and one good gold chain. The dress carries the pattern, so the jewellery only has to pick up the gold in the cloth rather than compete with it. Sizing and fit: there is no size chart here, because there are no sizes. You send six measurements at checkout, each with a short guide on how to take it, and the dress is cut to those numbers rather than made in a standard size and taken in afterwards. That is why it holds its line through the shoulder and the waist, which is the part an off-the-peg blazer almost always gets wrong. Each dress is cut from a length of Ankara by hand, so the exact placement of the print across the panels varies from one piece to the next. No two are identical. Care: cold hand wash or a gentle machine cycle inside out, hang to dry out of direct sun, and press on a low heat on the reverse to keep the print sharp.

Senator Kaftan and Trouser Set, Black and Gold Embroidery
A two piece men's senator kaftan in black, with gold embroidery down the placket and around the collar and cuffs, and matching straight leg trousers. It is cut to your own measurements rather than to a size chart. You give your chest, shoulder, sleeve, top length, waist and trouser length, choose a regular, loose or traditional fit, and the set is made from there, which takes about five days before it ships. That is the point of buying this rather than something off a rail: the sleeve ends where you want it to end. The cloth is what Nigerian menswear calls Seven Star cashmere. It is a soft brushed suiting cloth with a dry matt finish, not goat wool cashmere, and it is the standard cloth for this kind of outfit because it holds a clean line without looking shiny under lights. The embroidery is worked in gold at the collar, down the placket and around both cuffs, and the trousers are left plain so the top carries the detail. Senator style is the restrained end of Nigerian menswear, which is what makes it the versatile one. It is right for a wedding you are attending rather than hosting, for Friday and Sunday wear, for a service, and for an office where a suit would be too much and a shirt too little. Made by KINGZIZ in Lagos. Press on a low iron on the reverse and keep it away from direct heat.

Ankara Ruffle Ball Gown - African Print Mother and Daughter Dress
A multicoloured Ankara ball gown with a yellow organza ruffle neckline and a full skirt built layer on layer, each tier cut from a different African wax print so no two rows repeat. The bodice is fitted and structured, the ruffle sits off the shoulder, and the skirt carries its own volume without a hoop underneath. It is made to measure, which is why it works for a daughter and for a mother. Order it as a girls' ball gown for a birthday, a naming ceremony, a school ball or a flower girl role, or in an adult size for owambe, aso ebi or a wedding guest look. Order both and you get a matching mommy and me set cut to fit each of you properly, rather than one design scaled down. Hand sewn in Nigeria in Ankara cotton wax print, with an organza ruffle and full lining. Send your measurements at checkout, allow 2 to 4 weeks before dispatch, returns within 30 days. This is occasion wear, so treat it that way. Spot clean or dry clean only, and store it hanging so the tiers keep their shape.

Black 3D Rose Mermaid Evening Dress
Strapless black crepe mermaid gown with oversized white 3D rose appliques, handmade to your exact measurements. This floor length black evening dress is cut close through the bust, waist and hip, then flares into a dramatic mermaid train that sweeps behind you as you walk. The structured straight neckline holds its shape without straps, and the sculptural white fabric roses run from the hip down one side of the skirt, giving the silhouette its signature contrast. It is made in a mid weight crepe that drapes cleanly, resists creasing and photographs well under flash and studio lighting. A natural pick for prom night, a birthday photoshoot, a wedding reception or second dress, an engagement shoot, a gala or an awards dinner. Every piece is cut and sewn to order. Choose custom tailoring at checkout and send your bust, waist, hip, shoulder and length measurements so the fit is yours alone.

Black Fringe Racer Neck Maxi Dress
Fitted black maxi dress with a high racer neck and a cascading white fringe skirt, made to your measurements. The bodice is cut close and sleeveless, with a high racer neckline that keeps the shoulders and arms clean and draws the eye up. From mid thigh the silhouette breaks into a full curtain of white fringe that moves as you walk, which is what gives a plain black column its whole personality. It is made in a structured crepe that holds a body skimming shape without clinging, in a two tone black and white palette that takes almost any accessory. Wear it to brunch, a gallery opening, a birthday dinner, a wedding guest slot, or to the office with a blazer over the top. Every piece is cut and sewn to order in your own measurements, so the bodice sits where it should and the fringe finishes at the right length for your height.

IcyHot Oversized Crochet Sweater - Geometric Colour Block
A hand crocheted oversized sweater in geometric colour blocks: burgundy, mustard gold, cobalt and powder blue, divided by pale pink and cream. Drop shoulder, made to measure. The blocks are not printed and not machine knitted. Each one is crocheted as its own panel and joined, which is why the borders sit slightly proud of the fields they divide and why the surface has depth you can see in the photographs rather than only feel. IcyHot is a fair description of what it does. Cobalt and powder blue down one side, burgundy and mustard down the other, meeting at the centre. It is the temperature contrast that carries the piece rather than any of the colours on their own. Cut oversized with a drop shoulder, so it hangs off the frame instead of following it. Ribbed crew neck, ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem pull the edges in, which is the thing that stops an oversized crochet piece from reading as shapeless. Made to your measurements. You send four numbers at checkout, chest, shoulder width, sleeve length and body length, and the sweater is crocheted to those rather than to a standard size. The oversized ease is built in for you, so send your body measurements and nothing extra. It works as the whole outfit. Over a plain polo neck and tights as photographed, over jeans, or as a dress on a shorter frame. Keep whatever is under it plain, because this one is not sharing the attention. Hand crocheted in non-pilling acrylic yarn with a gold cotton thread trim, in a heavyweight textured stitch. Dispatch runs two to four weeks, because a sweater at this size is thousands of stitches worked one at a time and there is no faster way to make one. Care: cold hand wash or a wool cycle inside a mesh bag, and never wring it out. Dry it flat rather than on a hanger, because the weight of wet crochet will pull the body out of shape. Do not tumble dry.

Pearl Haven Linen Shirt and Trouser Set, White or Black
A two piece linen set: a short sleeved button down shirt with a classic collar and a curved hem, and matching straight wide leg trousers with front patch pockets. This is the set for heat. Linen is the cloth that stays cool when nothing else does, and a shirt and trouser in the same cloth reads as one considered outfit, so it goes from a morning flight to a lunch table to a warm evening without a change. Worn open over a vest the shirt works on its own, and the trousers take a plain tee just as well, so it earns its place as two garments as well as one set. The shirt has a shoulder yoke across the back and a hem that curves longer behind than in front. The trousers sit at the waist, fall straight and roomy through the leg and finish just above the ankle, with two patch pockets on the front. It comes in white or black, sizes S to XXXL. Both photographs show the white set; the black is not photographed. Dress it up with heels or down with flat sandals. Wash cool and iron while slightly damp, as linen creases by nature.

Noir Dot Satin Flounce Dress, Black and White Polka Dot
A sleeveless black and white polka dot satin dress with a round neckline, a small notch at the front and a flounced tier at the hem. The flounce is what sets it apart. The dress falls loose and swinging from the shoulders into a gathered tier just above the knee, so it has movement without a fitted waist, and the sheen of the satin makes a classic spot print look dressier than cotton would. It suits a daytime party, a wedding guest outfit with a jacket, or brunch with flat sandals. If you want something plainer for every day, the Ivory Breeze shift from the same store is the quieter choice. The spots are evenly spaced black dots on an off white ground, front and back. Sizes S to XXXL. Wash cool and gently, and iron on a low setting on the reverse, as satin marks easily with heat.

Ivory Breeze A Line Shift Dress with Pockets, Cream
A cream, knee length A line shift dress with short cap sleeves, a round neckline and side pockets. This is the easy one. It hangs from the shoulders and flares out to the hem with no waist seam and nothing to fasten at the front, so it moves with you and does not cling. It has real side pockets, which is the thing people are glad of most in a dress. Cream is a warmer, softer colour than white and sits well with gold jewellery and tan or black sandals. It suits a day out, the office in summer or a smart casual lunch, and layers under a denim jacket or a cardigan when the weather turns. Sizes S to XXXL. Wash cool with similar colours and iron on a medium setting.
