We’ve got a lot of love for African prints fabric (a.k.a Ankara styles) and not only is it lightweight and perfect for any fashion reign or breakthrough, but the vibrant prints have also continued to remain one of the sought-after articles of fashion. In different styles from blazers, jumpsuits, dresses, skirts, to swimsuits, etc, Ankara fashion is everywhere and every year when it gets hotter outside, it becomes more popular just because there’s something exciting and comfy about it.

Summer dressing is all about freedom and the more shoulders the more impact. A strapless top is a must, and though it works all year round, summer is arguably the most perfect season. And oh, if you want to make cuter, opt for the matching short pants.

Not a fan of anything mini or little? Of course, you’re not left out. Go for a slouchy long Ankara dress with a moderate slit. This way, you keep the look in a grown-up style but are still peak comfy.
