The Nkwado Raffia Set is a bold tribute to texture, movement, and the beauty of handcrafted tradition. Combining structured cotton with richly layered raffia, the piece transforms natural materials into a silhouette that feels expressive, sculptural, and deeply rooted in artisanal practice.
The raffia skirt moves with dramatic rhythm and volume, creating dynamic texture with every step, while the fitted top introduces balance through clean structure and soft contrast. Every raffia strand is carefully layered and attached by hand, preserving the raw beauty and tactile nature of the material.
Designed as part of The Weight of Handwork collection, the Nkwado Set celebrates the labor, patience, and craftsmanship involved in working with materials that demand both control and sensitivity from the maker.
Style Tip:
Pair with bold earrings and minimal heels for an elevated editorial statement, or style the top separately with tailored trousers for contemporary versatility.
