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 – Midnight Garden Edition is a refined statement piece that balances depth, femininity, and quiet power. Crafted from richly patterned Ankara, this full-length silhouette features an intricate botanical motif layered over a deep black ground, with notes of moss green and soft blush creating a sense of movement and organic rhythm.
Measuring 62 inches in length, the Dorothy is designed to elongate the body and drape with elegance, best suited for heights 5’7”–5’11”. The kimono is fully lined, offering both structure and comfort while maintaining a fluid, graceful flow.
The garment is finished with handwoven trim sourced from Nigerian Aso Oke or Liberian Country Cloth in a vivid pink hue along the neckline, cuffs, and front opening. This artisanal trim provides contrast and cultural depth, elevating the piece from everyday wear to heirloom-quality design. A coordinating self-tie belt allows for adjustable styling—cinched for a defined silhouette or worn open for relaxed sophistication.
Named in honor of the designer’s maternal grandmother, Dorothy, this kimono reflects her love of polished dressing, bold accents, and garments that command presence without excess.
The Midnight Garden Edition transitions effortlessly from elevated loungewear to statement outerwear, ideal for intimate gatherings, gallery evenings, or travel moments where style and comfort must coexist.
