Some dresses are worn. This one is felt.

The Habesha Dress in Navy Blue & Gold is where Ethiopian heritage meets modern confidence. Deep navy handwoven cotton — rich as midnight, grounded as the highlands — is cinched at the waist with a gold accent sash that catches light the way the Lalibela sunset catches stone. This is not a dress for disappearing into the background.

Gold Tibeb embroidery frames the neckline and cuffs in the time-honored pattern of Ethiopian ceremonial dress. The silhouette is contemporary: fitted enough to be modern, flowing enough to honor the tradition of the kemis. Whether you're celebrating Enkutatash in Washington D.C., attending an Ethiopian wedding in London, or simply refusing to let your roots fade in a new country — this dress says it all without a word.

The Details

  • Handwoven Ethiopian cotton — breathable, soft, and built to last
  • Traditional gold Tibeb embroidery at neckline, cuffs, and hem
  • Gold waist sash included — adjustable, elegantly tied
  • Full-length silhouette, modest and graceful
  • Available XS through 3XL — true-to-size Habesha kemis fit

Perfect For

Ethiopian New Year (Enkutatash) · Timkat celebrations · Habesha weddings & engagements · Eritrean cultural events · Diaspora community galas · Holiday family gatherings · Ethiopian graduation dress · Cultural photoshoots

The Story Behind the Color

Navy blue is the color of depth, loyalty, and a quiet kind of power. In the diaspora, wearing Habesha dress is an act of cultural pride — a visible thread connecting you to Ethiopia no matter where you live. This dress carries that weight elegantly.

Handwoven in Ethiopia by skilled artisans. No two pieces are identical — the slight variations in weave are a signature of authenticity, not a flaw. Free worldwide shipping. Ethically made. Sizes XS–3XL in stock.

Fantastic art book. As good as the first one.
I love the Airbender animation series. I can still remember the strong nostalgia I had while watching the first episode of The Legend of Korra: Book 1 Air, recalling all the characters from the previous series, and watch how time has passed and given us a new generation to look upon. The Legend of Korra: Book 1 - Air, The Art of the Animated Series is a nice addition to that experience. It's as good as the first art book . The cover art is different from the original product image. It has Korra looking rather too serious. The book features development art from all the 12 episodes in Book One: Air. There are designs for the main characters, followed by the Republic City and its inhabitants and then we have art from each episode in order. Character designs form the bulk of the book. There's Korra in different outfits, including those from Pro-bending gear, and also the cute four-year-old Korra. There are lots of line art and also coloured versions for the characters. Other characters are Tenzin and his family, Lin Beifong, Amon, Katara, and about most of the characters that appear in the episodes. The environment art are beautiful. The buildings and sets have a mix of oriental, industrial and European style. The world has changed since Aang was the Avatar. You'll see some connection to the past, for example, with Avatar Aang Memorial Island. Overall, the world feels very different because it has evolved. My favourite piece is the aerial painting of Air Temple Island that appears towards the end. The last few pages have some pretty cool miscellaneous art, such as the classic Avatar characters in their adult form, and also other characters drawn in non-animation style. Throughout the book, commentary is provided by creators Michael Dante DiMartino, Bryan Konietzko and director Joaquin Dos Santos. They give illuminating insight to the designs and stories. Highly recommended to fans of the series, and those who like animation or character art. It's one of my 2013 favourite artbooks. (See more pictures of the book on my blog.

Great companion book to a great "Book One!"
I really like that the creators have been so heavily involved in the comics and art books from Dark Horse, and as such, I want to own all of them after looking at this gem! The artwork is beautiful, and it's awesome reading little anecdotes from the series creators. Did you know that polar bear dogs are feared by the Water Tribes, but Korra met a lost cub when she was little and now she has Naga!? All of the notes add to the universe of the series and make you feel involved in the show. As a fan of the original series, I'm now a little older and can really appreciate the work that goes into entertaining people, so this book is exceptional at presenting that feeling. The book is separated into a few sections, focusing on early development, each episode of the first season, and extra artwork created for promotion such as the DVD cover. I love being able to look at the concept art and notes and then watch the series at home. I highly recommend grabbing the Blu-ray version of the series. It has audio commentaries for each episode, so you are really being thrown into the universe of The Legend of Korra! I highly recommend to everyone who is a fan of the series!

BEST ART BOOK (GREAT GIFT FOR Legend Of Korra FANS)
It is a beautiful book. It was everything I hoped for, but it was bigger than I expected. (I didn't see the measurements/size...oops) The artwork inside is incredible, the detail and effort that was put into this book is amazing. I am a huge Legend of Korra fan, so I was a little nervous when I bought the book. I had my doubts but when received it I was so pleased with it. I could not be happier with this book. I highly recommend this book to anyone considering it to either give to a friend or to buy for personal use.

A good one, albeit not a perfect one
It is a comprehensive look into the series with lots of wonderful art. I felt that it was thinner than the previous book from the Avatar series but I'm not talking about the length of the book (I know this one has less pages an only covers one season) but rather about the "insights" into the creative process. While the previous book felt full to the seams and you could feel that there was a lot of important material that didn't fit, you also felt that all the material that did was included was the best. In this one for Korra, you feel that there were many important things left out that should have been included and there are some things that were included that doesn't feel as important...

Everything you wanted put into a art book
I loved this art book. It showed me basically everything I wanted to see from back drops used and unused, old character designs and how some things came to be or what they were inspired by. The commentary is great though rarely confusing (Ex: at one point they commentary refers to a picture in the top right but says "As you can see by the design in the middle" the middle being something completely different) I feel like this book is a must for fans and people interested in the art of the series alike.
