I’ve always wanted to explore my work on textiles and I’m excited to be doing this with a brand whose ethos and spirit is so aligned with mine."

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.

    Makes me smile

    How could I not be happy wearing this? As soon as I tried it on in the San Francisco store, I knew I couldn't leave without it.

    This Zuri dress is so fresh and zesty. I just love it. It puts a spring in my step, frankly. And, as with all of my other dresses from this wonderful company, it is beautifully made. Thank you. You do good work in the world, Zuri.

    Cheerful and light

    A wonderfully fun, summery dress. This dress can brighten up a cloudy day or camouflage you within summer wildflowers. I love all the greens and blues mixed in with orange, and the shapes and details are just plain awesome. This is my favorite dress for summer adventures. Light and comfy.

    So light and fun

    This just brings me joy. The fabric is lighter than marimba or dolce vita.
