Ivory Tassel Scoop Neck Dress
The drama! Can you tell I started salsa dancing again? You're looking at over 10 inches of hand twisted tassels. This beautiful & rare textile is not being made anymore. Easy boxy cut with luxuriously long tassel trim. It's striking but humble. You can wear it anywhere, an art opening or a farmers market.
Made with a vintage textile from Burkina Faso, West Africa. This beautiful fabric was handwoven in small strips that were then sewn together to create a sarong like cloth. The whole process took weeks, even longer when you consider that they often grew the cotton! Imperfections, distress patterns, small holes or stains are common features of this beautiful and storied fabric.
