Eri Fringe Maxi Dress

Indulge in the mesmerising allure of the Eri Dress, crafted to embody the mystical essence of the supernatural realm.

Drawing inspiration from the mythical figure of Mami Watta and the enigmatic beings said to dwell beneath the waves, the Eri Dress encapsulates the wild grace and allure submerged in water. Crafted from lightweight chiffon, it is adorned with intricate gold beadwork - hand-stitched by artisans over 24 hours - while vibrant orange tassels cascade at the hem, creating a fringe that moves gracefully with every step. Handcrafted in Nigeria by Kíléntár's artisans.

OPACITY: This fabric is see-through. Crafted from lightweight, semi-sheer chiffon. We recommend nude undergarments.

FABRIC CARE: Dry clean only. Steam on low heat to release creases, and avoid direct heat on the beadwork — store hanging or flat to protect both the chiffon and the beading.

Is the Eri Dress true to size?
Yes. The Eri Dress fits true to size — simply select your usual size. It's available in Regular (60 inches) and Tall (65 inches) — the model is 5'11" and wears UK Small. Check the size guide at kilentar.com/pages/size-chart, and contact [email protected] if you are between sizes.

Is the Eri Dress see-through?
Yes. The Eri Dress is made from lightweight, semi-sheer chiffon, and you should expect some sheerness. We recommend nude undergarments. The gold beadwork and orange tassel fringe add visual density and movement, but the underlying fabric remains sheer.

What is the story behind the Eri Dress?
The Eri Dress draws its inspiration from Mami Watta, the mythical water spirit of West African folklore. The gold beadwork, hand-stitched by artisans over 24 hours, and the fringed orange tassels are designed to evoke the movement of water and the enchantment of the legend.
