One-of-one garment. Crafted in Johannesburg. Reclaimed heritage textiles. DHL worldwide shipping

One of a kind, pure cotton/silk blend kimono defined by vibrant emerald green, rich crimson borders and expressive floral detailing. The luminous green base is scattered with delicate multicoloured blossoms, beautifully contrasted by elaborate paisley motifs and flourishing botanical patterns in shades of pink, violet, gold and turquoise. Bold crimson accents frame the silhouette, creating a striking interplay of colour and heritage textile artistry.

Crafted from a luxurious silk sari textile, the fabric offers a natural sheen, soft texture and fluid drape that moves gracefully with the body. The kimono features dramatic, wide bell sleeves, an elegant open-front silhouette and a coordinating self-tie belt for adjustable waist definition. Ornate floral borders along the neckline, sleeves and hem lend a distinctive finish to this vibrant statement piece.

One-of-One Craftsmanship

Every Sari for Change garment is entirely one-of-one.

Crafted from reclaimed heritage textiles, each piece carries its own history, character, and unique markings. Variations in weave, embroidery, texture, colour, and minor imperfections are part of the beauty of the regenerative process and should not be considered faults.

These characteristics are a reflection of the textile's journey and make each garment impossible to replicate.
