Kitenge Ankara Dresses for Young Girls – By the word Ankara, the only thing that pops up in mind is that ” Isn’t it the capital of Turkey! ” Yes, indeed it is, but here Ankara is the name of the fabric that is worn by Africans. This fabric is also known as “African prints,” “African wax prints,” “Holland wax,” and “Dutch wax.” It is a 100% cotton fabric with vibrant patterns and made through a wax-resist dyeing technique called batik.

How to Wear Kitenge Ankara Dresses Fashionably

Here are some handy Advice for Styling up with Kitenge Ankara Dresses:

• Make sure that you put on single tone shoes as you might have got the idea that the Kitenge Ankara is a printed, so putting on some muti-colores shoe over it would ruin the entire outlook.
• Don’t accessorize yourself too much, go easy on the jewels as the fabric itself is having the broader and large prints; therefore, wearing heavy jewelry with it will look awful.
• Braids or curls is the most recommended hairstyle with such outfits as they give a very subtle and traditional look.
• If only one piece of your dress is in African print, then don’t merge it with another print, instead, go with black or white.
• Grab some African printed headbands, journals, footwear, jewelry, and bags to enhance your kitenge collection. We also recommend that you check out these Modern Kitenge Dresses.
