Cultured Tumelo Set : The Woman Who Moves With Conviction
Her name means faith.
Culturally inspired statement dress, with an optional detachable corset for added structure. Made for the woman who isn't afraid to be seen, Tumelo is bold, sculptural and unapologetically dramatic taking you from a black-tie affair to any evening that calls for a grand entrance, and everywhere in between.
The sculptural front drape is Tumelo's signature moment worn alone, it moves soft and fluid; paired with the detachable corset, it snaps into structure at the centre of the body, giving you two completely different silhouettes from one dress.
Designed for beauty and ease:
- Dramatic sculptural front draping in a floor-length silhouette
- Long sleeves with a one-shoulder neckline for a striking asymmetric finish
- Side slit for ease of movement
- Detachable corset in matching heritage print, adding structure at the centre of the body when worn, or left off to let the drape stand on its own
- Two looks in oneĀ soft and fluid without the corset, structured and sculpted with it
Fit notes:
Tumelo falls floor-length with soft, sculptural draping through the body. Worn alone, the silhouette moves fluid and unstructured; with the corset, it takes on definition at the waist and centre front.
Care instructions: Preferred hand wash.
Available as: The Tumelo Dress on its own, or with the detachable Tumelo Corset as an add-on.
