The Baoulé (or Baule) is a beautiful traditional African cloth that originates and are made by skilled craftsmen of the Baoulé people. They represent the majority ethnic group in Côte d'Ivoire and mainly reside in a town called Bomizambo, situated about thirty kilometers north of the Ivorian capital, Yamoussoukro. 

The cloth is made using heritage hand-weaving techniques which has been passed down for generations.

Women prepare the raw fibre (usually  cotton or silk) for weaving, spin the cotton into yarn using drop spindles, then either bleach or dye the yarn in preparation for the intricate weaving process. Which is done solely by the men on a handloom.

Baoulé was traditionally worn during community gatherings, special events, traditional
proceedings and festivities.

The cloth has now become a major source of income and revenue for the small communities
where weavers tirelessly continue to keep the skill alive.

Introducing, The Liya Skirt.

The name "Liya" is a shortened version of "Liyabona," a deeply meaningful Southern African name primarily found in isiXhosa and isiZulu languages, meaning "God sees us."

The Liya Skirt is a timelessly elegant box-pleated design crafted from a lightweight blend of 87% viscose and 13% recycled nylon Ecovero sustainable fabric, responsibly imported from Spain and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified. Its lower calf length makes it a versatile, transitional staple that pairs effortlessly with our knitwear tops, providing a refined base while allowing your layered outfits to shine. Thoughtfully designed with pockets, this skirt balances style and practicality for year-round wear, from warm summer days to cozy winter layering.
