Molade Gold Aso-Oke Dress is a rare and timeless piece, crafted from Aso-Oke fabric (pronounced ah-SHAW-okay), the handwoven cloth of the Yoruba people of Nigeria. With its bold stripes and flowing cut, it captures the essence of heritage reimagined for today.

This fabric was hand-loomed exclusively for Kemi Telford by artisans in the ancient city of Iseyin, Oyo State, before being hand-stitched by our seamstress Helen in Surulere, Lagos. Each piece is unique, celebrating both tradition and modern design.

• V-neckline with pleated ruffle collar

• Wide robe-style sleeves

• Dropped shoulders for a relaxed silhouette

• Curved shirt-style hem

• Designed to be oversized

Fit note: The Molade Gold is intentionally voluminous. If you prefer a more tailored fit, explore our other designs.

Why We Love It

The Molade Gold Aso-Oke Dress is more than clothing—it’s a celebration of Yoruba culture, craftsmanship, and individuality. With its billowing proportions and artisanal weave, it is equally at home as an everyday statement or a special occasion piece.
