CROCHET FRINGE DRESS
- Description
- KEY FEATURES
- CARE GUIDE
Meticulously hand-crocheted by a local women-led artisan collective, the Crochet Fringe Dress is a tactile expression of tradition, movement, and memory. Inspired by East African craft heritage and LilaBare’s vision of slow, soulful fashion, this piece blends fluid design with sculptural detailing.
Each strand is knotted by hand, creating a flowing silhouette that shifts with the body—fluid, feminine, and fearlessly bold. The open-weave construction reveals and conceals, making it the perfect layering piece for day or night.
Designed to evoke the rhythm of the hands that made it, the Fringe Dress transcends seasonal trends. Whether worn over swimwear, a slip, or tailored separates, it brings depth and narrative to every moment.
Handmade, intentionally imperfect & inherently powerful.
