Mlinzi Kimono
The Mlinzi Kimono is a handcrafted statement piece that celebrates artisanal beadwork and cultural design. Each garment features intricate hand-beaded detailing executed using the traditional tambour technique with white micro seed beads. The front showcases symbolic motifs—eye, sun, spiral, and Ekantik designs—while the back presents a striking tribal mask as the focal point. Crafted from soft beige viscose slub cotton, this kimono drapes with a relaxed, easy silhouette that skims to calf length, offering effortless elegance and comfort. Lightweight and breathable, it's perfect for layering or wearing as a statement cover-up.
Every piece is handmade at the Ekantik workshop in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, making it a unique addition to any wardrobe that honours traditional craftsmanship.
