Team at Thika Cloth Mills

The ecosystem for rotary printed fabrics is complex and truly global. While it's rare to see a rotary printed textile produced in a closed-circuit, farm-to-shop supply chain, the fabrics we're producing are verifiably 100% made in Kenya. Not just traceable, but local. Not just identifiable, but ethical and accountable.

Our production impacts hundreds of smallholder farmers and their families each year. It impacts young Kenyan artists whose voices and work may now have a slightly bigger audience (and fan club:) ). It impacts the Kenyan textile manufacturing industry, which for years has been out-competed in the local market by imported fabrics. Finally, it impacts you, because you can know that your dress was made ethically, honestly, and with pride.

    A fun retro inspired print scored in person on Bleecker Steeet

    I walked into the Zuri shop while on a visit to NYC, instantly recognizing a fellow Zurista I have followed on Social media and also immediately gravitating toward this Autumn hued print. These retro colors of my youth make my 70s heart happy. The print is cheeky and yet subtly bold. I can't say I gave it too much thought online but in person it's soft curves and rings definitely grabbed my attention.

    I have two sleeveless Zuris but this is my first sleeveless Maxi. I absolutely adore it and now wish some of my regular length dresses were also Maxi. This Maxi style definitely demands attention. It is both strikingly handsome AND flowy and feminine. For its inaugural wear I styled it over a wool dress and headed to Broadway where it was the perfect compliment for a fall night out on the town. Casually, I will wear this in the classroom teaching. It's incredibly comfortable with lots of movement.

    I simply adore this in person score.

    Light and Airy

    Twilight is light and airy without being see-through. It’s a wonderful addition to my spring/summer wardrobe and it is very cool to wear on a warm day. I never wear purple or lilac colours however this is a soft shade and I surprised myself by admitting how much I like it.

    Great transitional piece

    This dress seemed to be a sleeper for sure, so glad I was able to snag one as it's a great summer to fall transition piece in color. I am loving tge denim look of the blue and black.
