How do I determine my size?

Refer to our detailed Size Guide on each product page. We recommend measuring a similar garment you own and comparing it to our measurements.

Do your African-print fabrics stretch?

For the most part, no! We make most of our items using 100% African wax cotton which has no stretch whatsoever, so most of our clothing have minimal give. Please consult the fabric details on the product page to confirm stretch properties.

Yes! We offer custom sizing for an additional fee. Contact us with your measurements, and we’ll send you a quote.
