Beautiful handmade African print clothing for women.
Ankara House is a black owned fashion brand with the aim of empowering women through clothing and fashion. Our founder and lead designer's philosophy is simple- clothes can help a woman be her best and find her way in life and that's what we believe and base our brand on.
We do this in 2 ways. Firstly by creating beautiful clothing that makes our customers look good and feel great. We focus on designs that help a woman to standout and represent her best self. We then source and use good quality, made to last fabrics and materials in our pieces so that our customers can wear them again and again and again. Our pieces are handmade/machine sewn by a small group of seamstresses and we only make small quantities of each piece.
The second way we practice our brand philosophy is by using the backend of our business to create jobs and training opportunities. We do this by employing and paying above a full living wage to our team of seamstresses, assistants, photographers and anybody else who works with our brand, most of whom are women. We are also currently looking into training programs and scholarship opportunities for those in our community who may be interested in pursuing career paths in fashion, design and production but may not have access through our Swatsons Charity Foundation.

Robe attrayante mais malheureusement au dos au niveau de la fermeture, ça baille....dommage, il va falloir que j'aille chez la couturière.

le haut est sympa mais le tissu ne correspond pas à mes attentes car on dirait du synthetique et non pas du wax coton, l'attente un peu longue

Hello, thank you for the awesome Afrikrea site! :) The beautiful dress arrived 21st Dec with a lovely note inside and a thank you in Finnish. <3 Unfortunately a needle had been forgotten in the dress (in between the layers so it has to be cut out) so when I tried it on I got a scratch. :( On the bright side you really know the dress is handmade - and it looks just like in the pictures! :) For the future it would be great to have measurements of different sizes on the website. The dress I ordered fits well but is too tight for me on the top, I'll see if a local tailor can loosen it up.

Again, thank you for bringing African designers to western markets!

All the best in the future! Xx
