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 – Green Gingham Edition is a fresh interpretation of classic structure reimagined through a global lens. Crafted from richly patterned Ankara, this full-length silhouette features a soft gingham-inspired check rendered in layered shades of leafy green and ivory, creating a composition that feels both nostalgic and distinctly modern.
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 moving effortlessly from day to evening.
Finished with handwoven trim sourced from Nigerian Aso Oke or Liberian Country Cloth in a vibrant pink tone along the neckline, cuffs, and front opening, the kimono is elevated by textiles traditionally reserved for ceremonial and distinguished dress. The trim introduces bold contrast and cultural depth, grounding the softness of the pattern with intentional craftsmanship. 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 love of timeless patterns, confident color, and dignified dressing continues to guide this signature silhouette.
Designed to transition seamlessly from elevated loungewear to statement outerwear, the Dorothy – Green Gingham Edition reflects balance, heritage, and enduring style.
