All fabrics are natural fibers, cotton, linen, silk, no synthetics.

La Réunion Patchwork Dresses are art pieces meant to empower, embolden, and inspire all while honoring Africa.
The fabric in the dresses are a combination of vintage pieces sourced from all over the US and deadstock fabric from NY cutting rooms. Many of these materials would otherwise be thrown away.
