What is the difference between Ankara and Kitenge?
I woke up one day and what I knew from my childhood as Kitenge is now called Ankara. Well, it’s still a fabric
But are you even African if you are not trying this Ankara/kitenge fabric? I don’t know what African story inspires you to wear Ankara, mind to share 🙂 .
I am just a tomboy who had a near zero interest in kitenge, but well, time teaches us to love things that we once never quite bothered about.

Thank you Uncle Ogish for the support and love
I love, love the top (even though I could never wear anything like that). Its quite unique.
Thank you Dee, there are actually other ways to wear it….that are quite workable
Looking all glamorous the sky is only the limit.
I gave up on the lies of fundis/designers/seamstress. I now buy off the shelf vitenges (I just can’t get myself to call them ankara, it sounds like makora haha) Peace of mind is key.
Looking all glam!
My eyes literally popped out on that Shorts combo. Looks amazing!
You are looking awesome😍😍
