Meet our production partner, SOKO Kenya! Based in Kikambala on the Kenyan coast, they are an ethical manufacturer that truly embraces a fair, kind and transparent work culture. In addition to paying above living wages, SOKO provides employees with paid leave and stipends for family emergencies, free pre-primary childcare for all employees with children from ages 2-4, daily mid-morning tea and midday lunch, and clear, outlined processes for job advancement. These values extend to the workspace itself, which is open, airy and bright. It’s truly a privilege to work with the SOKO team, and we invite you to learn more about the stitching process here!

We're so proud to be working with Edwina and her cooperative of batik dyers in Accra, Ghana, to make these prints! Learn more about these fabrics here!

In order to create a batik fabric, recycled wax is melted and applied to the fabric using a stamped pattern. Edwina carves each stamped design herself in foam, which is easier to repurpose and work with than wood. Together with several women in Accra, Ghana, Edwina and her team always create designs that play on both pattern and layered color in a truly original way. Since we began working together in 2018, we've produced over 40 unique textiles together, keeping them in continuous production since we started. We're so honored to share this collaboration with Edwina and her team!

    Spring Favourite

    I adore this beautiful cotton batik dress! As spring has finally arrived in Melbourne I find myself reaching for it often. The fish add a little whimsy to my day and the blue is so pretty. I receive compliments every time I wear this Zuri dress out, it’s definitely a winner.

    Just keep swimming

    Perfect dress for spring or summer. The ocean blue color and the fish print give major beach vibes and a resort feel. This would make a great swimsuit coverup too!

    One star less than my usual rating due to the batik fabrics almost always feeling rougher against my skin.
