Marefu Dress
A hug in a dress but stylish and sustainable too. Classic and cool enough for all seasons year through (layer up or don't...).
The Marefu, meaning long in Swahili, Dress tends to elongate you whether you are indeed long, or not so long. The cozy turtle neck adds some subtle drama to this classic and flattering silhouette. The long and fitted sleeves feature a frill detail at the double-layer cuff. The side seams have a sexy-sexy slit for a little leg reveal, cos you know, they like to see the world too, no matter the season.

Made from a blend of 55% Natural Hemp + 45% Organic Cotton. Very little water and no chemicals are used to grow these fibres. That means no chemicals on your skin. You're welcome skin. Should it stretch or go out of shape, because it's natural simply stretch it back to shape by drying flat from wet.
Hemp is absorbent which is great for thermoregulating in hot + cold weather, it's long lasting (#slowfashion yeah!), it's also UV and mould resistant and when you have eventually worn it to death it will biodegrade back into our earth in less than a year, leaving not a trace of harm behind.
Designed + made in Cape Town in a factory full of love. What is love you say? Love is a comfortable working space, where needs are considered and met, where your employment looks to improve your quality of living and not simply sustain it, where you can laugh and play and look forward to your days work. And because we don't like to rush things, that love extends to each individual garment where the quality + finish is seen to with attention to detail + pride, making each piece stay with you for as long as possible. Love is life.
