We work with an incredible network of fabric vendors in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi to source textiles. Over the years and many hundreds of prints, we've learned a lot about how to select fabrics. We truly have these women to thank for sharing their knowledge and trust, and in doing so, creating such a mutually supportive experience. Learn more about our process and our vendors here!

I love wearing this shirt during the summer because it's roomy enough to keep cool and the bold prints and color make me feel cool! I receive lots of compliments when out and about.
- JSJanet S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars8 months agoYes I am Gladiola that I have this shirt!
I’ve never thought of myself as an orange person, but this shirt is amazing! I wear it over a black top and tights. I also love how my turquoise earrings work with it!

- SRSheila R.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoSo Glad to Add This Shirt to My Collection
I had had my eyes on this vibrant short-sleeved shirt for months so imagine my delight when I received it as a “surprise sale” item! I now have 5 shirts in this design, which I wear year-round. They all fit true to the boxy cut, but I take 2 sizes smaller in this shirt than in Zuri dresses.
- MSMaria S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoVery glad I bought this!
I knew I wanted this fabric when I first saw a sneak preview on Instagram, and when I saw that it was a short sleeved shirt, I was even happier. This is my second short sleeved and I am about to order Sillystring as well. They are so cute with jeans and super comfy. The fit is boxy but I really like it and I take the same size as my sleeved dresses.
