A bold expression of Peruvian craftsmanship and Shipibo-Konibo artistry, this vibrant red crochet maxi dress is handmade from cotton and finished with intricate Maya Kené embroidery by Shipibo-Konibo artist Lucy Silvano.
The contrasting embroidery flows across the dress in the geometric pathways of Maya Kené, a Shipibo-Konibo art form inspired by the movement and pathways of rivers. The design reflects the deep connection between kené, the natural world, and ancestral Shipibo-Konibo knowledge.
The fitted, floor-length silhouette is balanced by openwork crochet detailing and a side slit, creating a contemporary interpretation of traditional Peruvian textile craftsmanship.
This dress brings together hand crochet and Indigenous embroidery in a statement piece that honors the individual artistic authorship behind its design.
