Why Moremi

Heritage: Yoruba tradition, slow-fashion craftsmanship
Silhouette: short boubou with flutter sleeves, an open neckline and a ruffled hem
Wear: pull-on, no zip — internal straps tie at the back, so you draw the waist in to your own shape

Adire is hand-dyed cotton. It softens with wear and may relax slightly after the first washes.

Hand-wash cold with mild soap. No tumble-dry. Iron inside-out on medium heat. Expect slight dye release during the first washes, a natural characteristic of hand-dyed textiles that stabilizes with use.
