MAKEDA | Button Up Dress
The Eshe Blue Collection is a fresh new take on a lemlem classic. The crisp white background and bright blue stripes and dots pattern evoke the essence of the Mediterranean seaside and sailor stripes.
The voluminous Makeda dress features a stand collar, shell buttons, a ruched neckline, raglan sleeves, and front slits. It's slightly oversized and comes with hip pockets, a self-belt, and button cuffs. The unlined dress can also be sized down for a more tailored fit.
Hand-woven in Ethiopia, this silhouette is made of soft hand-spun cotton for a light and comfortable feel.
GIVING BACK | 5% of all purchases will be donated to the lemlem Foundation.
