This style is named as part of the collection’s tradition of honoring women whose presence, elegance, and personal style inform how the garment is worn and experienced.
The Dorothy Long Kimono – Forest Circle Edition is a grounded expression of rhythm, continuity, and quiet strength. Crafted from richly patterned Ankara, this full-length silhouette features an abstract circular motif layered in forest green, olive, and deep charcoal—evoking movement, connection, and organic balance.
Measuring 62 inches in length, the Dorothy is designed to elongate the frame, offering a fluid drape ideal for heights 5’7”–5’11”. Fully lined for comfort and structure, the garment maintains its shape while allowing ease of movement throughout the day or evening.
Finished with handwoven trim sourced from Nigerian Aso Oke or Liberian Country Cloth in a deep green tone along the neckline, cuffs, and front opening, the kimono is elevated by textiles traditionally reserved for ceremonial and distinguished dress. These details introduce cultural depth and refined texture while reinforcing the garment’s understated luxury. A coordinating self-tie belt allows the piece to be worn cinched for a tailored silhouette or open for relaxed elegance.
Named in honor of the designer’s maternal grandmother, Dorothy, whose appreciation for dignified dressing, intentional design, and timeless silhouettes continues to shape this signature piece.
Designed to transition seamlessly from elevated loungewear to statement outerwear, the Dorothy – Forest Circle Edition reflects balance, heritage, and enduring style.
