Fabric of the Week: Circles Print Ankara
Newly arrived in store we have another classic African Wax Print. This has been worn even before I was born. These colourful variations are manufactured in Ghana and printed on 100% cotton.
Available here or by clicking on the images below. This fabric is known in Ghana as ‘Nsu Bra’ which means water well (referring to the ripple effect created in water). It is also known as Disc or Record.
We even have a Pinterest Board dedicated to fashion creations made from the circle fabric.
Visit the store www.urbanstax.com for these and more bright prints and batiks. Do share you creations if you have purchased from us in the past. We would love to feature your work!
