Additional Information
Inspired by the sacrifice, resilience and struggle for recognition in the lives and works of Sonia Delauney, Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Anni Albers, Telford tells a story of womanhood through bold geometric textile design.
’These are stories that modern-day women still relate to. Stories that I relate to as a woman, a wife, and a mother. Stories of the ups and downs, in the lifetime of a woman.' - Yvonne Modupe Telford.
Boxes, zig-zags and circles weave together to form a pattern symbolic of the obstacles, challenges and prejudices that women face, creating an overall print as vibrant as the lives that inspired it.
Size Guide
Its clever elasticated design means that this one-size skirt fits waist sizes up to 46 inches, and can be cinched further with the built in drawstring tie fastening. Unstretched, the waistband measures 28 inches.
For reference, our model Natalie is 167 cm (5 foot 5 inches) tall. Her chest measures 34 inches, waist 28 inches and hips 38 inches.
African wax print fabrics are integral to Kemi Telford’s practice; care has been taken to reproduce the texture and quality of these fabrics in her designs for Tate. To this end, the patterns are applied using a Batik screen printing method on 100% organic cotton.
To keep your skirt looking at its vibrant best, make sure to cold hand wash only, and don’t bleach, tumble dry, dry clean or soak in water.
About the designer
Kemi Telford is the creation of Yvonne Modupe Telford, a designer without formal training, who set out to make clothes that would encourage women to take up their space; everyday wearable clothes that spoke for women even before they spoke for themselves. Kemi Telford makes clothes that make their wearers feel great about themselves, the realisation of Yvonne’s childhood dream.
That people are respected and valued is vital to Kemi Telford, from customers, to employees, to suppliers. They work very closely with their manufacturers to ensure that everyone involved in the making of their garments is paid well and work no more than eight hours a day.
