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.

I adore this dress! Of course I love it because it’s purple, but the unexpected pops of green and turquoise in the fish scales make it fun to colour coordinate various accessories. The fabric of this dress is lighter than normal, but not overly sheer. I really like the drape and flow of it.

Love this dress for so many reasons! The vibrant print, the loose but complimentary fit, and the many compliments I received wearing it! It’s a little chilly so I wore leggings this time around.

Just bought this dress after falling in love with my first. I wore it today to church because it’s Lent and the liturgical color is violet. I received so many compliments on its beautiful pattern and fit! Everyone also loved how wonderful Zuri is when it comes to its mission and work. Will definitely be buying more!

Love the colours in Fantail, and the fish are gorgeous! A beautiful lightweight dress that has so many options for layering.
