Gaea Lumi Ukara Knit Dress
Most of the clothings and wears on Adjoaa are made to order, and require approximately 10 business days for production before shipping. This allows our designers to produce more responsibly and reduce waste.
This backless knit dress draws inspiration from the Ukara cloth traditionally worn by Ekpe society men, featuring intentional Nsibidi symbols that carry cultural significance.
The striking contrast between cream and bold blue brings these meaningful patterns to contemporary wear, honoring their origins rather than treating them as mere decoration. Crafted from comfortable stretch knit fabric that moves with you throughout the day, this piece offers both cultural depth and wearability.
The symbols embedded in the design acknowledge the weight and meaning behind each element, making this more than just a dress, it's a statement. The fabric's natural stretch means your usual size typically works perfectly, though sizing down offers a closer fit if preferred.
