Each Imbola piece is crafted from natural fibres — cotton, Mbhaco and naturally dyed textiles. See the product description above for the specific fabric of this piece.
Hand-wash cold or use a gentle cycle, then dry flat in the shade — do not tumble dry. Cool iron on the reverse. As our textiles are naturally dyed, slight variation in colour and tone is expected and celebrated; it is not a defect.
Styling · Ukunxiba
Imbola ready-to-wear is made to live with you — easy enough for everyday, considered enough for the occasion. Layer it through the week, then carry the same piece into umtshato, umgidi and amabhaso.
Style it your way and tag @imbola.africa — we love seeing how usapho wears Imbola.
