"This Red Habesha dress combines handwoven cotton with gold tilf embroidery along the bodice, sleeves, and hem, creating a lightweight, flowing silhouette favored by diaspora women for baptism celebrations. The drape and weight of the fabric were chosen specifically with baptism celebrations in mind, so the dress moves naturally through the rituals of the day.
Color: Red
Material: Handwoven cotton with gold tilf embroidery
Silhouette: A-line, full-length traditional kemis cut
Skilled Ethiopian weavers apply the gold tilf embroidery border by hand, a process that can take days for a single piece, so every maroon Habesha dress carries its own slight character. It's a favorite among diaspora women who want authentic detail without sacrificing comfort during long days of baptism celebrations. Because each order is made to measure, the fit through the bust and waist tends to sit closer to the body than off-the-rack alternatives.
Custom-made to your exact measurements — simply provide your bust, waist, hip, and height at checkout. Processing time is 7–14 days. Ships worldwide from Ethiopia with full tracking."
