The cloth

Fabric first, always

Every Kgarebe piece begins with the cloth: hand-dyed bogolan from Mali, raffia kuba from the Kasai, printed leteise from the south, and hand-woven asooke from Yorubaland. We cut sparingly, so no two runs are ever quite the same.

Made to measure

Bring your own cloth, or choose from ours

Beyond the archive, the studio takes on a small number of bespoke commissions each month, including bridal, couples' outfits, and one-off occasion pieces. Choose a fabric from our table or bring your own heirloom cloth and we'll cut around it.
