Designed by textile artist Tammi Williams, she shared with us that this design is "100% inspired by the humble and ubiquitous trees around New York City. They're not exotic trees but they add much needed shade, green space, and beauty to the city and so I decided to show them some respect in my design."

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.

    So beautiful!

    I loved the purple in this dress as soon as I saw it, but I was concerned about the white background. When the terrific sale landed I couldn’t resist any longer and I’m so glad I went for it. This dress is gorgeous, and it works great over jeans for the fall weather. Also kudos to Zurinfor giving me a way to feel put together when I was stuck in a walking boot for a few weeks.

    Thank you so much, Jennifer! We're so glad you took the leap with New Leaf! We honestly didn't even see the boot until we zoomed in :) We hope you have a speedy recovery <3

    Much love,

    Soft and beautiful

    I didn’t get this dress when it originally came out. I went for mix tape by the same designer but I keep seeing people wearing it and it called to me. I’m glad I bought it. It is drapey and elegant.

    Lovely print, breezy fabric

    The blue/purple on this dress is my very favorite color, and I like the light summer weight of the fabric. The first dress I ordered fit oddly in the shoulders, but customer service was very helpful and responsive. They suggested an exchange, which went smoothly, and second dress fit as expected! Thanks so much.

    Beautiful summer weight dress.

    I love the violet-blue of the colour periwinkle! This is also a wonderful dress for summer... I have worn it several times in hot weather already: with white jeans, as a duster over wide-legged white pants and with dhite leggings... the light fabric weight feels beautifully breathable in the heat and it's an elegant print.

    Beautiful!

    I love this dress—the periwinkle color, the leaves, and knowing that the designer created it in tribute to the trees of New York City! Trees make a city breathe. It also coordinates beautifully with some Julahas and wool& items I have!
